Infertility around the globe: new thinking on gender, reproductive technologies and global movements in the 21st century
TL;DR: An overview of what is known about global infertility, ART and changing gender relations is presented, posing five key questions: why is infertility an ongoing global reproductive health problem, what are the gender effects of infertility, and are they changing over time?
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of oxidative stress on male reproduction.
TL;DR: This review highlights the mechanisms of ROS production, the physiological and pathophysiological roles of ROS in relation to the male reproductive system, and recent advances in diagnostic methods; it also explores the benefits of using antioxidants in a clinical setting.

Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical methods for assessing agreement between two methods of clinical measurement.
TL;DR: An alternative approach, based on graphical techniques and simple calculations, is described, together with the relation between this analysis and the assessment of repeatability.
Journal ArticleDOI
World Health Organization reference values for human semen characteristics
Trevor G. Cooper,Elizabeth A. Noonan,Sigrid von Eckardstein,Jacques Auger,H.W. Gordon Baker,Hermann M. Behre,Trine B. Haugen,Thinus F. Kruger,Christina Wang,Michael T. Mbizvo,Kirsten M. Vogelsong +10 more
TL;DR: Semen quality of the reference population was superior to that of the men from the general population and normozoospermic men, and provide an appropriate tool in conjunction with clinical data to evaluate a patient's semen quality and prospects for fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revival of Spermatozoa after Vitrification and Dehydration at Low Temperatures
TL;DR: It would appear that rapidity of freezing is less important than the avoidance of surface effects, and Revival is far better when semen is frozen in bulk than when minimal amounts in capillary tubes are used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of an assay to assess the functional integrity of the human sperm membrane and its relationship to other semen characteristics
TL;DR: The hypoosmotic swelling technique to evaluate the functional integrity of the sperm membrane appears to give high repeatability and accuracy and is closely correlated to the in-vitro fertilizing ability of spermatozoa.
