摘要：

Serotonin excretion was investigated in the nausea and vomiting associated with hyperemesis gravidarum. Urinary hydroxyindoleacetic acid was measured in 13 gravid women with hyperemesis gravidarum, 10 gravid women without nausea and vomiting, and 10 nongravid women of similar age not taking contraceptive pills. No significant difference in the urinary excretion of hydroxyindoleacetic acid was found among the groups. Hyperemesis gravidarum is not associated with an increase of serotonin secretion.
