Age-related changes in human conventional semen parameters and sperm chromatin structure assay-defined sperm DNA/chromatin integrity
What are the correlations between male age, traditional semen parameters, sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) and high DNA stainability (HDS) in a sufficiently large sample size? Retrospective cohort study of 18,441 semen samples, with data divided into seven age groups according to male age: ≤25, 2...

Zusammenfassung: | What are the correlations between male age, traditional semen parameters, sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) and high DNA stainability (HDS) in a sufficiently large sample size?
Retrospective cohort study of 18,441 semen samples, with data divided into seven age groups according to male age: ≤25, 26–30, 31–35, 36–40, 41–45, 46–50 and ≥51 years.
Age was negatively correlated with semen volume, total sperm count, motility and HDS, and positively correlated with sperm concentration and DFI (P |
