Journal ArticleDOI

Giovanni Corona,Alessandro Pizzocaro,Fabio Lanfranco,Andrea Garolla,Fiore Pelliccione,Linda Vignozzi,Alberto Ferlin,Carlo Foresta,Emmanuele A. Jannini,Mario Maggi,Andrea Lenzi,Daniela Pasquali,Sandro Francavilla +12 more
TL;DR: The present data suggest that performing TESE/micro-TESE in subjects with KS results in SRRs of close to 50%, and then PRs and LBRs of close-to 50%, with the results being independent of any clinical or biochemical parameters tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracellular signal-regulated kinases modulate capacitation of human spermatozoa.
Michaela Luconi,Tullio Barni,Gabriella B. Vannelli,Csilla Krausz,Fabio Marra,Pier Alberto Benedetti,Valter Evangelista,Sandro Francavilla,Giuliana Properzi,Gianni Forti,Elisabetta Baldi +10 more
TL;DR: The data demonstrate the presence of functional ERKs in human spermatozoa and indicate that these enzymes are involved in activation of these cells during capacitation, providing new insight in clarifying the molecular mechanisms and the signal transduction pathways of this process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial membrane potential profile and its correlation with increasing sperm motility.
Donatella Paoli,M. Gallo,F. Rizzo,Elisabetta Baldi,Sandro Francavilla,Andrea Lenzi,Francesco Lombardo,Loredana Gandini +7 more
TL;DR: Sperm mitochondrial integrity is investigated through analysis of mitochondrial membrane potential and a positive correlation between total motility and Δψ is revealed, suggesting that sperm motility may be dependent on the functional integrity of the mitochondria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endothelial cell activation in men with erectile dysfunction without cardiovascular risk factors and overt vascular damage.
Massimo Bocchio,Giovambattista Desideri,Piero Scarpelli,Stefano Necozione,Giuliana Properzi,C. Spartera,Felice Francavilla,Claudio Ferri,Sandro Francavilla +8 more
TL;DR: Increased biochemical measures of ECA were associated with ED independent of coexisting VRFs and overt vascular damage, suggesting that ED is a sentinel of early atherosclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
European Academy of Andrology guideline Management of oligo-astheno-teratozoospermia.
Giovanni M. Colpi,Sandro Francavilla,Gerhard Haidl,Katarina Link,Hermann M. Behre,Dimitrios G. Goulis,Csilla Krausz,Aleksander Giwercman +7 more
TL;DR: The aim of this European Academy of Andrology guideline was to provide an overview of factors contributing toligo‐astheno‐teratozoospermia and to discuss available management options.
