Impact of Chemotherapy on Sperm Functional Characteristics in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Tumours

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) are the most common malignancies among young men and represent a major threat to reproductive health. Both the disease itself and oncological treatments, particularly chemotherapy, can compromise spermatogenesis and semen quality.

Machine Learning‐Based Prediction of Sperm Retrieval Outcomes in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome: A Multicenter Study With External Validation

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Klinefelter syndrome is a common genetic cause of male infertility, and testicular sperm extraction (TESE) enables sperm retrieval in a subset of affected patients. However, predicting TESE success remains challenging due to the heterogeneous clinical and endocrinological presentation of the Klinefelter syndrome.
