Journal ArticleDOI
The hypo-osmotic swelling test in recurrent miscarriage
William M. Buckett,M. J. M. Luckas,I. A. Aird,Roy G. Farquharson,Charles R. Kingsland,D. Iwan Lewis-Jones +5 more
TL;DR: The hypo-osmotic swelling test score is significantly lower in samples from men whose partners have had unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortions, the first study to identify a male factor component in recurrent miscarriage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Follicular fluid concentrations of interleukin-12 and interleukin-8 in IVF cycles
M.Rafet Gazvani,Michelle Bates,Gillian Vince,Stephen E. Christmas,D. Iwan Lewis-Jones,Charles R. Kingsland +5 more
TL;DR: The presence of IL-12 in the follicular fluid appears to be associated with a negative outcome in IVF treatment, and interleukin-8 seems to be an essential part of folliculogenesis, although its concentration is not associated with fertilization or implantation rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of different sperm function tests as screening methods for male fertilization potential—the value of the sperm migration test
M.M. Biljan,C.T. Taylor,Paul R. Manasse,Edward C. Joughin,Charles R. Kingsland,D. Iwan Lewis-Jones +5 more
TL;DR: The sperm migration test proved to be the best discriminator of sperm fertilization potential and should be considered as a first level screening test in the assessment of male fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human sperm head morphometric distribution and its influence on human fertility
TL;DR: Successful IVF or history of fathering a child was associated with a more uniform sperm head area in semen and sperm preparation and three predictive models of probability of fertilization were built.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and in vitro testing of a new method of urine preparation for retrograde ejaculation; the Liverpool solution
TL;DR: Liverpool solution can be used in any unit treating couples with RE, and it is a noninvasive and inexpensive regimen that may optimize urine pH and osmolarity for sperm survival after RE.
