A systematic review and meta-analysis of the impact of triclosan exposure on human semen quality.

Introduction: Triclosan is an antibacterial and antifungal compound that is frequently found in personal care and consumer products, and its its impact on male reproductive health is a growing concern. Despite existing experimental studies demonstrating its potential threats to male fertility, reports on its effects on human semen quality remains limited and inconsistent. Therefore, this study presents a systematic review and meta-analysis assessing the relationship between triclosan exposure and semen quality.

Toxic impacts of arsenic bioaccumulation on urinary arsenic metabolites and semen quality: A systematic and meta-analysis.

This study aims to investigate the effect of arsenic exposure on urinary levels of arsenic metabolites, semen parameters, and testosterone concentrations. A systematic comprehensive literature search was conducted up till 31st January 2024 using Embase, MEDLINE/Pubmed, and Scopus. This study adopted the Population Exposure Comparator Outcome and Study Design (PECOS) framework.

Impact of organophosphate pesticides exposure on human semen parameters and testosterone: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
