46 Citations | Sperm MTT viability assay can be used as a diagnostic test for discrimination of viable sperms from sperm population. |
227 Citations | When the average total motile sperm count was under 10 million, IVF with ICSI was more cost-effective than IUI in our clinic. |
| These results indicate that SQA IIC might be used as an initial screening test for the evaluation of sperm morphology. | |
222 Citations | The test was shown to have a predictive value for fertility comparable to that of the hamster ovum sperm penetration assay and to be a simple and cost-effective addition to existing semenology. |
44 Citations | The sperm migration test proved to be the best discriminator of sperm fertilization potential and should be considered as a first level screening test in the assessment of male fertility. |
214 Citations | On the other hand, combining the results of the various sperm function tests does improve the reliability of fertility estimation and current research is therefore concentrated on identifying a range of tests that covers as many important sperm attributes as possible but that can be performed rapidly and cheaply. |
41 Citations | Until the validity and reproducibility of the sperm penetration assay have been established, this expensive test should probably not be used to evaluate infertile couples. |
28 Citations | The woman's age and number of sperm present for insemination are significant factors influencing cost-effectiveness. |
| We conclude that accessory sperm count can be used for the detection of compensable defects in sperm and is a valid parameter for assessing sperm fertilization capacity. | |
| This study revealed that inherent errors abound when different counting chambers are used for sperm count. | |
| The implementation of scientific and technological advances could benefit the simultaneous examination of sperm phenotype and sperm function, demonstrating that sperm morphometry could be a useful tool for sperm assessment. | |
21 Citations | We find remarkable similarities in sperm count distributions in cohorts of fertile men from 1951 and 1971 to 1994. |
