TLDR
In this article, the results of tests of sperm chromatin and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) normality are related to fertilization rates in vitro, and the relationship between sperm test results and fertility rates was analyzed by logistic regression.About:

Sperm chromatin structure assay: its clinical use for detecting sperm DNA fragmentation in male infertility and comparisons with other techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of DNA fragmentation, plasma membrane translocation of phosphatidylserine and oxidative stress in human spermatozoa
TL;DR: Spermatozoa from infertile men display translocation of membrane phosphatidylserine as diagnosed by annexin V positive staining, and there is a relationship between DNA damage and oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of baseline and induced DNA damage in human spermatozoa from fertile and infertile men, using a modified comet assay.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the asthenozoospermic infertile group is more susceptible to damage than the normozoos peroxide infertiles group, which in turn is more vulnerable than the fertile group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sperm chromatin structure and male fertility: biological and clinical aspects.
TL;DR: In this paper, the origin of sperm DNA damage and a variety of methods for its assessment are described, and the possible impact of DNA damage on the offspring is also discussed, as well as a useful tool for assessing male fertility potential both in vivo and in vitro.

Predictive value of normal sperm morphology: a structured literature review
K Coetzee,TF Kruge,Carl Lombard +2 more
TL;DR: The inclusion of an accurately evaluated normal sperm morphology count as an integral part of the standard semen analysis makes this analysis still the most cost-effective means of evaluating the male factor.

Laboratory manual for the examination of human semen and semen-cervical mucus interaction.
TL;DR: This laboratory manual consists of 2 sections which describe methods of examination of human semen and semen-cervical mucus interaction in order to standardize procedures and facilitate evaluation and comparison of research reports.

TL;DR: By evaluating sperm morphology with the proposed strict criteria, its predictive value in in vitro fertilization is enhanced.
Journal ArticleDOI
A test for the practical evaluation of male fertility by acridine orange (AO) fluorescence.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced the concept of an effective sperm count, which is obtained by multiplying the percentage of green-fluorescing sperm by the actual sperm count and found that the percent green correlates with neither actual sperm counts nor motility, indicating that this test measures a new parameter of male fertility.

TL;DR: It was found that a low mean value of the amplitude of lateral sperm head displacement and an increased percentage of abnormal acrosomes were related to in-vitro fertilization failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
