3D+t Multifocal Imaging Dataset of Human Sperm.

Scientific data
Understanding human fertility requires dynamic and three-dimensional (3D) analysis of sperm movement, which extends beyond the capabilities of traditional datasets focused primarily on two-dimensional sperm motility or static morphological characteri...

A potential supplemental indication of dipyridamole for contraception: Dipyridamole inhibits mouse sperm fertilization capacity in vitro.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications
The inhibition of sperm cAMP and ATP levels, using an FDA-approved medication, may impair sperm motility and, consequently, fertilization, thus paving the way for the development of a male contraceptive. The objective of this study was to define the ...

Predictability of varicocele repair success: preliminary results of a machine learning-based approach.

Asian journal of andrology
Varicocele is a prevalent condition in the infertile male population. However, to date, which patients may benefit most from varicocele repair is still a matter of debate. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether certain preintervention sper...

Machine learning approach to assess the association between anthropometric, metabolic, and nutritional status and semen parameters.

Asian journal of andrology
Many lifestyle factors, such as nutritional imbalance leading to obesity, metabolic disorders, and nutritional deficiency, have been identified as potential risk factors for male infertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship bet...

Identifying predictors of Day 5 blastocyst utilization rate using an artificial neural network.

Reproductive biomedicine online
RESEARCH QUESTION: Can artificial intelligence identify predictors of an increased Day 5 blastocyst utilization rate (D5BUR), which is one of the most informative key performance indicators in an IVF laboratory?

Structures of sperm flagellar doublet microtubules expand the genetic spectrum of male infertility.

Cell
Sperm motility is crucial for successful fertilization. Highly decorated doublet microtubules (DMTs) form the sperm tail skeleton, which propels the movement of spermatozoa. Using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and artificial intelligence (AI)-ba...

Reproductive characteristics of the giant gurami sago strain ( Lacepède, 1801): basic knowledge for a future hatchery development strategy.

F1000Research
The giant gourami sago strain ( Lacepède) has been approved in 2018 as a candidate for freshwater aquaculture in Indonesia. However, information on the species' reproduction is minimal. This study analyzed the reproductive characteristics of the go...

Machine learning for sperm selection.

Nature reviews. Urology
Infertility rates and the number of couples seeking fertility care have increased worldwide over the past few decades. Over 2.5 million cycles of assisted reproductive technologies are being performed globally every year, but the success rate has rem...

Sperm quality of rats exposed to difenoconazole using classical parameters and surface-enhanced Raman scattering: classification performance by machine learning methods.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Difenoconazole is a fungicide extensively used in agriculture. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of difenoconazole fungicide on the sperm quality of rats. Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control and exposed to 5 (D5), 10 (D...

Postthaw Addition of Autologous Seminal Plasma Improves Sperm Motion Characteristics in Fair and Poor Freezer Stallions.

Journal of equine veterinary science
During semen processing for cryopreservation, most seminal plasma is usually removed, and components with protective effects on sperm may be missing after thawing and within the female reproductive tract. The present study evaluated the effect of pos...
