Relationship between sperm morphology and sperm DNA dispersion
Translational Andrology and Urology, 2020 The pathogenesis of teratozoospermia (30%) and a higher odds ratio (OR) for having high SDF levels were found in the group of men with teratozoospermia vs. men without teratozoospermia. However, the receiving operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis indicated that a SDF >18% was a significant negative predictive value to distinguish between men ...

Standardisation of Dog Sperm Morphology Classification. [PDF]
Reprod Domest AnimABSTRACTSperm morphology is an important component of dog fertility analysis. Visual examination is the gold standard technique for evaluation, but large variations within and across evaluators have been documented. Databases of sperm morphology images are valuable practical aids for training and performance testing and can improve sperm classification
