Can Testicular Size Be a Predictive Factor for Successful Sperm Retrieval in Patients with Non Obstructive Azoospermia?

open access: yesGynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2019
Objective: Non-obstructive azoospermia, defined as absence of spermatozoa in the ejaculate caused by impaired spermatogenesis, is the most severe cause of male infertility.

Identification of deleterious variants in patients with male infertility due to idiopathic non-obstructive azoospermia

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2022
Background Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) is the most severe type of male infertility, affecting 1% of men worldwide. Most of its etiologies remain idiopathic.

Aberrant Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway in Testis of Azoospermic Men​ [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2015
Purpose: The Importance and key role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in spermatogenesis is known. Abnormalities of this pathway in Sertoli and germ cells leads to infertility.

Non-Invasive Diagnostics of Male Spermatogenesis from Seminal Plasma: Seminal Proteins

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
The compounds of seminal plasma have great potential as biomarkers of male fertility and can be used as a diagnostic tool for types of azoospermia. Azoospermia occurs in approximately 1% of the male population, and for an effective therapy of this form ...

Serum inhibin B as a marker of spermatogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Inhibin B is produced by Sertoli cells, provides negative feedback on FSH secretion, and may prove to be an important marker for the functioning of seminiferous tubules.

VASA protein and gene expression analysis of human non-obstructive azoospermia and normal by immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and bioinformatics analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
VASA, also known as DDX4, is a member of the DEAD-box proteins and an RNA binding protein with an ATP-dependent RNA helicase. The VASA gene expression, which is required for human germ cell development, may lead to infertility.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection for treatment of non-obstructive azoospermia

open access: yesGynecological Endocrinology, 1997
Four cases from a tertiary care teaching medical center were studied to assess the potential of sperm extraction, fertilization and the establishment of pregnancy in couples with non-obstructive azoospermia. Four couples with non-obstructive azoospermia underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection after testicular sperm extraction.

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

The Role of Varicocele Repair in Non-Obstructive Azoospermic Men: A Systematic Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The outcomes of varicocele repair in non-obstructive azoospermic men remain the subject of controversy. Until now, small studies with small number of patients performed make it difficult to assess the efficacy of varicocele surgery in men with non ...

The role and implication of platelet‐rich plasma in male factor infertility: A systematic review of human studies

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cryopreservation causes sperm injury and the success of surgical sperm retrieval (SSR) for azoospermic men is just over half depending on the cause of azoospermia. The role of autologous platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) in male factor infertility (MFI) is unclear. Objective To conduct a systematic review of the role of PRP in MFI focusing
