Serum levels of anti-mullerian hormone as a marker of ovarian function in 926 healthy females from birth to adulthood and in 172 Turner syndrome patients
Abstract
CONTEXT: In adult women, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is related to the ovarian follicle pool. Little is known about AMH in girls. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to provide a reference range for AMH in girls and adolescents and to evaluate AMH as a marker of ovarian function. SETTING: The study was conducted at a tertiary referral center for pediatric endocrinology. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: We measured AMH in 926 healthy females (longitudinal values during infancy) as well as in 172 Turner syndrome (TS) patients according to age, karyotype (A: 45,X; B: miscellaneous karyotypes; C: 45,X/46,XX), and ovarian function (1: absent puberty; 2: cessation of ovarian function; 3: ongoing ovarian function). RESULTS: AMH was undetectable in 54% (38 of 71) of cord blood samples (<2; <2-15 pmol/liter) (median; 2.5th to 97.5th percentile) and increased in all (37 of 37) infants from birth to 3 months (15; 4.5-29.5 pmol/liter). From 8 to 25 yr, AMH levels were stable (19.9; 4.7-60.1 pmol/liter), with the lower level of the reference range clearly above the detection limit. AMH levels were associated with TS-karyotype groups (median A vs. B: <2 vs. 3 pmol/liter, P = 0.044; B vs. C: 3 vs. 16 pmol/liter, P < 0.001) as well as with ovarian function (absent puberty vs. cessation of ovarian function: <2 vs. 6 pmol/liter, P = 0.004; cessation of ovarian function vs. ongoing ovarian function: 6 vs. 14 pmol/liter, P = 0.001). As a screening test of premature ovarian failure in TS, the sensitivity and specificity of AMH less than 8 pmol/liter was 96 and 86%, respectively. CONCLUSION: AMH seems to be a promising marker of ovarian function in healthy girls and TS patients.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
