Objectives: Our objective was to relate the tobacco with seminal spermatogenic parameters such as sperm morphology, concentration of spermatozoids and germinal cells in samples of semen from men with idiopatic infertility.
Methods: A prospective study was carried out on a population of 131 men with idiopatic infertility that attended the Reproduction Service of Centenario Hospital in Rosario from may 2004 to june 2006. Sperm study according to WHO was carried out evaluating germinal cells and sperm morphology with Papannicolaou.
Objectives: To investigate sperm quality before and after swim up in infertile patients, and to compare it with a fertile men population.
Methods: Semen samples from 55 patients consulting at the infertility services of the Hospitals "Centenario" in Rosario and "Eva Perón" in Gro Baigorria were collected and analyzed accordingly with the WHO guidelines. 30 sperm samples with a volume higher than 1.
Objective: Our purpose was to study, in semen samples of infertile patients, the relationship between the Modified Sperm Stress Test (MOST) and the presence of antisperm antibodies (ASA), macrophages concentration and the Hypoosmotic Swelling Test (HOST).
Methods: Semen samples from 42 men undergoing evaluation for infertility were examined according to WHO criteria. Twenty-five of them, whithout clumping non hyperviscosity, were selected.
Objectives: To investigate the presence of macrophages in human semen samples and the function they carry out in the seminal fluid. Their presence was studied in relation to spermatic morphology, percentage of spermatozoids with native DNA, and presence of antispermatic antibodies.
Methods And Results: The work was performed with semen samples from 31 unfertile males from 63 couples in which the "female factor" was ruled out as the cause of infertility.
