Preoperative Predictors for the Presence of Motile Spermatozoa in the Epididymis and Patency of Anastomosis During Microsurgical Vasoepididymal Anastomosis in Patients with Obstructive Azoospermia

Journal of Human Reproductive Sciences, 2023
Background: Following microsurgical vaso-epididymal anastomosis (VEA), anastomotic patency with sperm returning to the ejaculate is not always present and may even be delayed.

Heterogeneity in the Global Practice of Central Nervous System Staging in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is assessed by cell counting and cytomorphology from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is used for treatment stratification worldwide. The ratio of “CNS2” patients in clinical trials ranges from 3% to 40%, with unclear prognostic significance ...

The association between male infertility and sperm disomy: Evidence for variation in disomy levels among individuals and a correlation between particular semen parameters and disomy of specific chromosome pairs

, 2004
BACKGROUND: The association between infertility and sperm disomy is well documented. Results vary but most report that men with severely compromised semen parameters have a significantly elevated proportion of disomic sperm.

Power spectrum of the geodesic flow on hyperbolic manifolds [PDF]

, 2018
We describe the complex poles of the power spectrum of correlations for the geodesic flow on compact hyperbolic manifolds in terms of eigenvalues of the Laplacian acting on certain natural tensor bundles.

Point‐of‐care semen analysis of patients with infertility via smartphone and colorimetric paper‐based diagnostic device

Bioengineering & Translational Medicine, 2021
Male infertility affects millions of males worldwide and is rising in prevalence due to social and environmental conditions. However, men often feel too embarrassed to receive a semen analysis in the hospital due to social stigmas.

Oxidative Stress and Male Infertility: Evidence From a Research Perspective

Frontiers in Reproductive Health, 2022
Male fertility potential can be influenced by a variety of conditions that frequently coincide. Spermatozoa are particularly susceptible to oxidative damage due to their limited antioxidant capacity and cell membrane rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Artificial intelligence model for the assessment of unstained live sperm morphology

Reproduction and Fertility
Traditional sperm morphology assessment requires staining and high magnification (100×), rendering sperm unsuitable for further use. We aimed to determine whether an in-house artificial intelligence (AI) model could reliably assess normal sperm ...

Temporal Changes of Clomiphene on Testosterone Levels and Semen Parameters in Subfertile Men

The World Journal of Men's Health, 2023
Purpose: Clomiphene citrate (CC) is prescribed off-label in men to improve testosterone and sperm parameters, but the duration of treatment needed to reach maximal benefit remains unclear.
