Description
Cemal Ünlü and Hüseyin Aksoy compare in 2026 how long a protective antibody injection lasts to delivery in twin versus single pregnancies. Rh-negative mothers receive anti-D at 28 weeks to guard against blood mixing with an Rh-positive baby. Blood tests at delivery checked whether the given antibody still showed.
Among 71 twin pregnancies, about 70 percent tested negative at delivery, versus about 57 percent of 177 single pregnancies. Twins cleared the antibody faster by this lab measure. The authors stress the finding describes drug persistence only and does not prove weaker protection for babies.
