TLDR
In this paper, the authors evaluated the fertility and pregnancy rates after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in infertile couples with severe male infertility and found that fertility was achieved even in older women but were more readily established in younger women producing larger numbers of metaphase II oocytes.About:

Developmental capacity of damaged spermatozoa.
Ali Ahmadi,Soon-Chye Ng +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that with damaged spermatozoa, the key point in the fertilization process is the activation of the oocyte by injection of cytosolic sperm factor, and a similar fertilization rate can be achieved following activation.

Is assisted reproduction the optimal treatment for varicocele-associated male infertility? a cost-effectiveness analysis
TL;DR: Specific treatment of varicocele-associated male factor infertility with surgical varicocelectomy is more cost-effective than primary treatment with assisted reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The usefulness of a piezo-micromanipulator in intracytoplasmic sperm injection in humans
TL;DR: Piezo-ICSI is a promising new technique for human ICSI that should improve the survival, fertilization and pregnancy rates after ICSS, and is clinically applied to humans.

Sperm Banking for Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Patients: Sperm Quality, Patient, and Parent Perspectives
Jill P. Ginsberg,Sue Ogle,Lisa Tuchman,Claire A. Carlson,Maureen Reilly,Wendy L. Hobbie,Mary T. Rourke,Huaqing Zhao,Anna T. Meadows +8 more
TL;DR: It is aimed to evaluate feasibility of offering newly diagnosed patients the opportunity to bank sperm and to determine the beliefs and decision‐making processes of patients and their parents who considered sperm banking.

Intracytoplasmic injection of morphologically selected spermatozoa (IMSI) improves outcome after assisted reproduction by deselecting physiologically poor quality spermatozoa.

TL;DR: An increase in embryo quality, pregnancy and implantation rates after computerised sperm selection during ICSI procedures deselects physiological abnormal spermatozoa and improves clinical results.

High fertilization and implantation rates after intracytoplasmic sperm injection
Andre Van Steirteghem,Zsolt Nagy,Hubert Joris,Jiaen Liu,Catherine Staessen,Johan Smitz,Arjoko Wisanto,Paul Devroey +7 more
TL;DR: High pregnancy rates were noticed since 67 pregnancies were achieved, of which 53 were clinical, i.e. a total and clinical pregnancy rate of 44.7% and 35.3% per started cycle and 49.6% and 39.2% per embryo transfer.

Higher success rate by intracytoplasmic sperm injection than by subzonal insemination. Report of a second series of 300 consecutive treatment cycles
Andre Van Steirteghem,Jiaen Liu,Hubert Joris,Zsolt Peter Nagy,C. Janssenswillen,Herman Tournaye,Marie Paule Derde,Elvire Van Assche,Paul Devroey +8 more
TL;DR: Subzonal insemination (SUZI) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) were carried out in 300 treatment cycles in couples unable to be helped by conventional in-vitro fertilization treatment.

Age-related decline in female fertility is not due to diminished capacity of the uterus to sustain embryo implantation*

TL;DR: The capacity to conceive and to gestate a conception to term when oocyte quality is controlled appears to be independent of uterine aging through the fifth decade of life.

Tests of human sperm function and fertilization in vitro
TL;DR: Results of in vitro fertilization can be used to evaluate tests of human sperm function and Logistic regression analysis is a powerful method for determining which groups of sperm characteristics are independently related to fertilization rates.
