AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to assess how the functional integrity of sperm membranes correlates with various seminal parameters measured by Computer-Assisted Sperm Analysis (CASA).
  • A total of 162 males were tested, including 38 fertile and 124 infertile participants, revealing a significant difference in sperm membrane integrity between the two groups.
  • The findings suggest that evaluating sperm membrane integrity is important for improving the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility, complementing CASA results.

Article Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the relationship between the functional integrity of sperm membrane and seminal parameters related to CASA.

Methods: Thirty-eight fertile and one hundrend and twenty four infertile males were tested the functional integrity of sperm membrane by the kit and parameters by CASA.

Results: There was a significant difference in the functional integrity of sperm membrane between fertile and infertile group (P < 0.01). The items related to CASA between normal and abnormal group in the functional integrity of sperm membrane had a remarkable difference, except motion degree, seminal volume and pH.

Conclusions: To determine the functional integrity of sperm membrane can be used as a necessary supplementary method for CASA, and it has clinical significance in diagnosing, treating and researching male infertility.
