conclusions our study showed that ultrasonography findings can be a good predictor of sperm parameters in patients with varicocele. results the semen analysis parameters, including semen volume and sperm morphology, count, and motility, significant correlations with the diameter of the varicocele vein but were not correlated with testes size. in addition, the patients with reflux of longer than...

context air pollution is common in all countries and affects reproductive functions in men and women. it particularly impacts sperm parameters in men. this meta-analysis aimed to examine the impact of air pollution on the quality of sperm. conclusions the results of this meta-analysis showed that air pollution reduces sperm motility, but has no impact on the other sperm parameters of spermogram...

important aspect of sperm function such as motility and capacitation appear to be mediated at least partially though hyaloronic acid (ha). present study investigated effects of different doses of ha on sperm motility and vitality in human. sperm was obtained from 20 male from ivf clinic in imam khomeini hospital. sperm motility and vitality in human semen was analyzed according to who criteria ...

introduction: varicocele is considered as a common cause of male infertility. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of varicocelectomy on sperm parameters, sperm membrane integrity and sperm nuclear maturity. materials and methods: in this study along with routine semen analysis, hypo-osmotic swelling test (host), and aniline blue staining for assessment of as 45 and 90 days after i...

background: recently, motile sperm organelle morphology examination (msome) criteria as a new real time tool for evaluation of spermatozoa in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) cycles has been considered. objective: the aim was to investigate the predictive value of msome in in vitro fertilization (ivf) in comparison to icsi cycles and evaluation of the association between msome parameters...

background: sperm dna fragmentation is known as an important cause of male infertility. the influence of sperm dna damage on reproductive potential has been subject of many studies indicating various results and remaining the subject controversial. in this study, we investigated differences of the semen parameters and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) outcome according to sperm dna fragme...

reactive oxygen species (ros) generation, induced by the cryopreservation process, can be responsible for mammalian sperm damage. curcumin is known as an effective antioxidant against oxidative stress. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of curcumin on sperm count, motility and viability, semen total antioxidant capacity and dna integrity of rat spermatozoa during semen freeze-tha...

introduction: tegrity is the most important component for transferring genetic information sperm dna fragmentation is considered a component of male infertility. its assessment comprises conventional semen analysis of which emphasis is placed on its evaluation in fertility clinics. in this study, we investigate the relationship between sperm parameters of motility, morphology, concentration, an...
