Onm-6: Apoptosis and the Quality DecreaseOf Sperm Parameters in Infertile Men.

The effect of rhFSH on Sperm DNA Fragmentation and sperm parameters in Oligozoospermia Infertile Men

Background: One of the main causes of male infertility is the negative effects of oxidative stress. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) plays an essential role in spermatogenesis, as well as in the maintenance of sperm DNA integrity. This study aimed to determine whether the recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rhFSH) treatment of sperm parameters could positively affect sperm DNA and...

Assessment of Sperm Apoptosis and Semen Quality in Infertile Men-Meta Analysis

Dear Editor, Apoptosis is the programmed cell death that occurs because of the DNA fragmentation which is seen in the sperm of infertile men. There are two different mechanisms: Intrinsic (mitochondrial) pathway and extrinsic pathway which is done by cell receptors. Apoptosis has a significant relation with infertility of men. The more immature the testicle, the more apoptosis will happen. Stan...

Correlation between sperm parameters and sperm DNA fragmentation in fertile and infertile men

Background: It is established that sperm DNA integrity is essential in fertilization and normal embryo and fetal development. Routine semen analysis gives an approximate evaluation of the functional competence of spermatozoa, but does not always reflect the quality of sperm DNA. Therefore, the evaluation of sperm DNA integrity, in addition to routine sperm parameters, could add further informat...

Correlation between Dietary Antioxidant Intake and Sperm Parameters in Infertile Men with Oligozoospermia

Background and Objectives: Infertility is one of the disorders, which its prevalence is increasing and several factors associated with reduction of sperm quality, can play an important role in this disorder. The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between dietary antioxidants intake and sperm quality in infertile men with oligozoospermia.   Methods: This cross-sectional study wa...

Effect of Royal Jelly on Sperm Parameters and Testosterone Levels in Infertile Men

Background and purpose: Complementary medicine plays a major role in treatment of infertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of royal jelly on sperm parameters and testosterone levels in infertile men. Materials and methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 100 infertile men attending the infertility treatment center in Sari Imam Khomeini Hospital were monitored for two mon...
