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

Unveiling new disease, pathway, and gene associations via multi-scale neural networks [PDF]
Diseases involve complex processes and modifications to the cellular machinery. The gene expression profile of the affected cells contains characteristic patterns linked to a disease. Hence, biological knowledge pertaining to a disease can be derived from a patient cell's profile, improving our diagnosis ability, as well as our grasp of disease risks ...

Mixture of Input-Output Hidden Markov Models for Heterogeneous Disease Progression Modeling [PDF]
A particular challenge for disease progression modeling is the heterogeneity of a disease and its manifestations in the patients. Existing approaches often assume the presence of a single disease progression characteristics which is unlikely for neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease.

Multiple inflammatory, infectious and autoimmune dermato‐venereological conditions are associated with erectile dysfunction (ED) due to underlying intricate vasculogenic, neurogenic, endocrine and psychogenic mechanisms. It is recommended that practitioners screen dermatology patients for ED and associated comorbidities, provide personalized lifestyle ...

Management of residual penile curvature after penile prosthesis placement
Residual penile curvature is a common situation following the implantation of a penile prosthesis in patients with Peyronie's disease. Currently, there is a variety of options for the correction of residual curvature, including penile modeling, plication

The Effect of Disease-induced Mortality on Structural Network Properties [PDF]
As the understanding of the importance of social contact networks in the spread of infectious diseases has increased, so has the interest in understanding the feedback process of the disease altering the social network. While many studies have explored the influence of individual epidemiological parameters and/or underlying network topologies on the ...
