Background: Techniques for sperm cryopreservation have exhibited their potential in male fertility preservation. The use of frozen-thawed sperm in fertilization (IVF) cycles is widespread today. However, many studies reported that cryopreservation might have adverse effects on sperm DNA integrity, motility, and fertilization, probably due to cold shock, intra- and extracellular ice crystals, and excess reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Light-chain proximal tubulopathy (LCPT) is typically characterized by the intracytoplasmic deposition of light chains within the proximal tubular epithelial cells, which is usually classified into crystalline and noncrystalline subgroups. Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a common glomerular disease characterized by diffused subepithelial electron-dense deposits along the capillary loop accompanied by the effacement and microvillus transformation of the foot process. Here, we report a biopsy-confirmed case of a concurrence of LCPT with crystals (κ light chains restricted) and antigen-undetermined MN in a male patient.

Background: Subtle abnormalities in children's intelligence, motor skills, and psychology from various assisted reproductive treatments (ARTs) might be underdiagnosed. Understanding the prognosis of intelligence, motor skills, and psychology in children from ART would provide parents with reasonable expectations and enable them to plan relevant support to achieve the optimum potential in ART children.
Methods: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases until April 13, 2021, to identify relevant studies.
