Sperm DNA fragmentation in Chinese couples with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2020
We aimed to study the association between sperm DNA fragmentation and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in the Chinese population via a retrospective observational study of Chinese couples who had experienced RPL between May 2013 and August 2018.

Codeine-induced sperm DNA damage is mediated predominantly by oxidative stress rather than apoptosis

Redox Report, 2020
Background: Opioids have been implicated to induce infertility. Although codeine remains the most used opioid for recreational purpose, no study has documented its effect on sperm quality.

Semen analysis revisited- Qualitative assessment of sperms using cytochemical stains- the new norms of male infertility workup

Journal of Pathology of Nepal, 2023
Background: Male infertility is on the rise globally. It contributes to about 40-50% of all infertility cases. Semen analysis forms the basic investigation for the assessment of male factors of infertility, but it has its pitfalls.

Correlation of sperm DNA damage with blastocyst formation: systematic review and meta-analysis

Middle East Fertility Society Journal, 2021
Background The routine semen analysis fails to detect sperm DNA damage which contributes to the majority of male factor infertility. Sperm DNA fragmentation test (DFI) measures the sperm DNA damage. Blastocyst formation is an important step in IVF ± ICSI.

Correlation of Sperm Parameters With Sperm DNA Damage or Sperm Nucleus Chromatin Status in Oligospermic Individuals Referred to Qom Jihad Daneshgahi Infertility Treatment Center in 2017 (Iran)

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Qum, 2021
Background and Objective: Although proper morphology and motility of sperm can be one of the most important factors influencing male fertility, however, these parameters cannot play a decisive role in the health of sperm DNA.

Effect of season on the dynamics of cat sperm DNA fragmentation

BMC Veterinary Research, 2023
Background Feline species undergo reproductive seasonality; thus, sperm characteristics, such as DNA integrity, can be affected by the photoperiod. This study was conducted to determine the effect of seasonal changes on sperm quality and on the dynamics ...

Evaluation of the sperm DNA fragmentation index in infertile Japanese men by in-house flow cytometric analysis

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2022
Semen analysis has long been used to evaluate male fertility. Recently, several sperm function tests have been developed. Of those, the sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI), which describes the status of the sperm DNA, is thought to be a suitable ...

Association between semen microbiome disorder and sperm DNA damage

Microbiology Spectrum
DNA fragmentation index (DFI), a new biomarker to diagnose male infertility, is closely associated with poor reproductive outcomes. Previous research reported that seminal microbiome correlated with sperm DNA integrity, suggesting that the microbiome may

Relationship between sperm progressive motility and DNA integrity in fertile and infertile men

Middle East Fertility Society Journal, 2018
Background: Progressive sperm motility was found to be predictive for in vitro and in vivo fertilization. There has been an increase in the literature of studies investigating whether DNA fragmentation could be associated with other semen parameters ...
