Journal ArticleDOI
Sperm oxidative stress and the effect of an oral vitamin E and selenium supplement on semen quality in infertile men.
L. Keskes-Ammar,N. Feki-Chakroun,Tarek Rebai,Z. Sahnoun,H. Ghozzi,S. Hammami,K. Zghal,H. Fki,J. Damak,A. Bahloul +9 more
TL;DR: In contrast to vitamin B supplementation, vitamin E and selenium supplementation produced a significant decrease in MDA concentrations and an improvement of sperm motility, and these results confirm the protective and beneficial effects of Vitamin E and Selenium on semen quality and advocate their use in male infertility treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ureaplasma urealyticum, Ureaplasma parvum, Mycoplasma hominis and Mycoplasma genitalium infections and semen quality of infertile men
Radhouane Gdoura,Wiem Kchaou,Chiraz Chaari,Abir Znazen,Leila Keskes,Tarek Rebai,Adnane Hammami +6 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that genital mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas seem to be widespread among the male partners of infertile couples in Tunisia and indicate that PCR-microtiter plate hybridization assay method provides a rapid and effective technique to detect human genital myCoplasma and UreaplAsmas which is useful for etiological and epidemiological studies of these pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of Chlamydia trachomatis, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Ureaplasma parvum, Mycoplasma hominis, and Mycoplasma genitalium in semen and first void urine specimens of asymptomatic male partners of infertile couples.
Radhouane Gdoura,W. Kchaou,Leila Ammar-Keskes,N. Chakroun,A Sellemi,Abir Znazen,Tarek Rebai,Adnane Hammami +7 more
TL;DR: Using in-house PCR, both semen and first void urine (FVU) specimens from asymptomatic infertile men were found to be sensitive diagnostic specimens for the detection of C trachomatis, ureaplasmas, and mycoplasmas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of freezing–thawing process and quercetin on human sperm survival and DNA integrity
Nassira Zribi,Nozha Chakroun,Fatma Ben Abdallah,Henda Elleuch,Afifa Sellami,Jalel Gargouri,Tarek Rebai,Faiza Fakhfakh,Leila Keskes +8 more
TL;DR: Cryopreservation led to a significant increase in sperm DNA fragmentation, DNA oxidation and caspase 3 activation, and Supplementation of the cryopreserved medium with quercetrin induced a significant improvement in post thaw sperm parameters, compared to those of control, regarding sperm motility, viability and DNA integrity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Semen quality decline among men in infertile relationships: experience over 12 years in the South of Tunisia.
N. Chakroun Feki,Nabil Abid,Ahmed Rebai,Amira Sellami,B. Ben Ayed,Mohamed Guermazi,Ali Bahloul,Tarek Rebai,L. Keskes Ammar +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated trends in semen parameters between 1996 and 2007 in the Sfax area of southern Tunisia in a sample of 2940 men in infertile relationships and used linear regression to examine trends over time in sperm count, sperm motility, normal morphology, and semen leukocyte concentration.
