(Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology, 2020)
Sperm DNA integrity is crucial for fertilization and development of healthy offspring. The spermatozoon undergoes extensive molecular remodeling of its nucleus during later phases of spermatogenesis, which imparts compaction ...
Scientific landscape of oxidative stress in male reproductive research: A scientometric study
(Elsevier, 2020)
Unraveling the role of reactive oxygen species and associated oxidative stress (OS) in male reproduction is one of the key areas of male reproductive research. This article illustrates the scientific landscape of OS in ...
Seminal oxidation–reduction potential levels are not influenced by the presence of leucocytospermia
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)
Oxidative stress (OS) is characterised by an excessive amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which negatively affect sperm functions. In this study, the influence of leucocytes on seminal oxidation–reduction potential ...
The validity and reliability of computer-aided semen analyzers in performing semen analysis: a systematic review
(Translational Andrology and Urology., 2021)
Background: Computer-aided sperm analyzers (CASA) are currently used worldwide for semen analysis.
However, there are doubts about their reliability to fully substitute the human operator. Therefore, this
study aimed to ...

Male infertility, oxidative stress and antioxidants
(IntechOpen, 2021)
Within the male reproductive system, oxidative stress (OS) has been identified
as prevailing etiology of male infertility. The effects of reactive oxygen species
(ROS) on male fertility depend on the dimensions, “modus ...
Sperm morphology assessment in the era of intracytoplasmic sperm injection: Reliable results require focus on standardization, quality control, and training
(Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology, 2021)
Semen analysis is the first, and frequently, the only step in the evaluation of male fertility. Although the laboratory procedures
are conducted according to the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, semen analysis ...
A web-based global educational model for training in semen analysis during the Covid-19 pandemic
(Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology, 2021)
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the American Center for Reproductive Medicine (ACRM) transitioned its
annual training in assisted reproductive technology (ART) from a hands-on, laboratory-based training course to a ...
Editorial commentary on draft of world health organization sixth edition laboratory manual for the examination and processing of human semen
(Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology, 2021)
Semen examination is the cornerstone of the evaluation of male fertility potential. Despite its apparent
simplicity, it is a complex series of assessments with
highly variable results that are subject to interpretation. ...
