Anti‐Müllerian hormone level as a predictor of sperm retrieval with microdissection testicular sperm extraction in nonobstructive azoospermia

Andrologia, 2021
Limited factors effectively predict sperm retrieval with microdissection testicular sperm extraction in men with nonobstructive azoospermia. We therefore sought to evaluate the role of serum anti‐Müllerian hormone as a predictive biomarker for successful

Bromelain‐Rich Pineapple Extract for the Treatment of Pediatric Patients With Orchiepididymitis: A Randomized Clinical Pilot Study

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
From pineapple byproducts to a pharmaceutical formulation. ABSTRACT A freeze‐dried pineapple extract—Brome‐Inf, from pineapple by‐products of industrial rings production, was enriched in bioactive polypeptides and bromelain by membrane ultrafiltration. Orchiepididymitis (OE), a painful pediatric pathology, was treated with this extract. A pilot, double‐

Testicular volume in non‐obstructive azoospermia with a history of bilateral cryptorchidism may predict successful sperm retrieval by testicular sperm extraction

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2020
Purpose Cryptorchidism is one of the most common causes of non‐obstructive azoospermia (NOA) in adulthood. Even if early orchidopexy is performed to preserve fertility potential, some patients still suffer from azoospermia.

Clinical outcomes of microdissection testicular sperm extraction-intracytoplasmic sperm injection with fresh or cryopreserved sperm in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2021
We performed this study to evaluate the clinical outcomes of microdissection testicular sperm extraction-intracytoplasmic sperm injection (micro-TESE-ICSI) treatment that used fresh or cryopreserved sperm in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA).

Reproductive adverse events in patients with non‐Hodgkin lymphoma treated with chemotherapeutic regimens including cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone or CHOP with rituximab: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
The regimen of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) or CHOP with rituximab (R‐CHOP) is the first‐line treatment for non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Nine articles involving 331 patients were included in the meta‐analysis, the pooled proportion of reproductive adverse events was 22.3% (95% CI 11.4%–33.2%; p < 0.001). The findings

Systematic review and meta‐analysis of COVID‐19 association with human semen quality: Changes in semen parameters pre‐ and post‐COVID

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2), which may infect the cells through binding with the angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors that can also be found in the male reproductive organs.
