Background: Recurrent abortion is defined as three or more consecutive pregnancy losses. We aimed to determine the relationship between male sperm parameters and hypo-osmotic swelling score and recurrent abortion. We also studied whether washing of spermatozoa and intrauterine insemination in patients with recurrent miscarriage and low score hypo-osmotic swelling test in male partners could imp...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Late hypothermia (HYPO) reduces injury after collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), whereas early HYPO does not because it exacerbates the protracted bleeding that occurs in this model. We hypothesized that early HYPO would not increase bleeding after whole blood infusion and thus expected early HYPO to improve outcome through reducing secondary consequences ...

for a graph $g$ let $gamma (g)$ be its domination number. we define a graph g to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$mathcal{ed}$ graph) if $g$ has no efficient dominating set (eds) but every graph formed by removing a single vertex from $g$ has at least one eds, and (ii) a hypo-unique domination graph (a hypo-$mathcal{ud}$ graph) if $g$ has at least two minimum dominating sets...

Background: Following the expansion of human infertility, different procedures have been utilized for separation of normal sperm during ICSI (Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection). Hypo-osmotic swelling test (HOST) is one of the tests which have been introduced for assessment of integrity of sperm membrane when confronted with hypo osmotic condition. This test may also reflect intracellular organe...

semen analysis, sperm dna fragmentation (sdf) and hypo-osmotic swelling test (host) are usually performed for the evaluation of sperm fertilizing ability. there are some debates over the necessity of sdf and host incorporation in male infertility work-up.semen of 77 men was evaluated by sdf and host through three semen analyses. sperm parameters were arranged into different categories: < 5%, 5-...
