Do Sperm Really Compete and Do Eggs Ever Have a Choice? Adult Distribution and Gamete Mixing Influence Sexual Selection, Sexual Conflict, and the Evol
Field experiments and a simple heuristic model examining the degree of sperm mixing for the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus franciscanus indicate that degree of competitive fertilization depends on density and distribution of competing males and that the nature of this competition influences whether males with high- or low-affinity gamete recognition protein genotypes have higher reproductive success.
Chromatin Protamination and Catsper Expression in Spermatozoa Predict Clinical Outcomes after Assisted Reproduction Programs
CMA3 positivity and CATSPER expression significantly predicted the attainment of good quality embryos with an OR of 6.6 and 14.3 respectively, whereas AB staining was correlated with fertilization rate. In the subgroup of couples with women ≤:35 years, CATSPER also predicted achievement of clinical pregnancy (OR := :4.4). Including CMA3, CATSPER and other parameters affecting ART outcomes (female age, female factor and number of MI
Clinical utility of sperm DNA fragmentation testing: practice recommendations based on clinical scenarios
In conclusion, there seems to be a consensus that increased sperm DFI is associated with a lower chance of pregnancy with natural pregnancy, IUI and IVF, but not ICSI. Despite the rapid development of artificial reproductive methods, repeated implantation failure, inadequate response to surgical treatment of varicocele, and the inadequacy of standard laboratory tests/semen analysis to demonstrate the cause of idiopathic male infertility prompted
Infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss and sperm DNA fragmentation, have we found the missing link?
Moreover, SDF was found to be inversely correlated with the success of fertility treatments including live birth rates (28). Despite this well-established observation, SDF is not widely accepted as part of the evaluation of infertility or RPL. Possible reasons for the under-use of SDF are lack of information, expensive required equipment, but most importantly, the common belief that SDF is untreatable and therefore is irrelevant.
Sperm DNA fragmentation testing: a cross sectional survey on current practices of fertility specialists
SDF testing is utilized in the evaluation of infertility patients by a majority of fertility specialists under specific clinical scenarios. Shortcomings, such as the presence of several SDF testing methods with different cut-off values and the test charges were some of the reasons hampering the routine use of SDF in the evaluation of infertile men.
The Society for Translational Medicine: clinical practice guidelines for sperm DNA fragmentation testing in male infertility
This clinical practice guideline provides recommendations of clinical utility of the test supported by evidence. It is intended to serve as a reference for fertility specialists in identifying the circumstances in which SDF testing should be of greatest clinical value. SDF testing is recommended in patients with clinical varicocele and borderline to normal semen parameters as it can better select varicocelectomy candidates.
CO2 Incubators and Your Media Prep Routine [Safe Sens Distribution]
The incubator is widely considered the most critical piece of equipment in the ART laboratory. The type of incubator, its age, and its physical location all affect performance. These changes to performance will affect your embryo culture conditions, and can be reflected in pH trend analysis.
