摘要
Objective: To determine whether sperm DNA integrity in normozoospermic male partners plays a role in idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Design: Prospective, cohort study. Setting: Academic tertiary care center. Patient(s): Group I: 26 male partners of women with unexplained RPL. Group II: 31 normozoospermic males with proven fertility. Intervention(s): Semen samples were collected by masturbation after 48-72 hours of abstinence. After liquefaction at room temperature, semen analysis was performed according to World Health Organization standards. Only samples with > 20 x 10(6) spermatozoa/mL with at least 50% progressive sperm motility and 30 % normal morphology were selected for the study. DNA fragmentation of the sperm was assessed with TUNEL assay followed by flow cytometric analysis. Main Outcome Measure(s): Sperm DNA fragmentation in both groups. Result(s): Mean DNA fragmentation (mean +/- SD) was significantly more in men with RPL (36.8 +/- 5) compared with controls (9.4 +/- 2.7). Conclusion(s): Sperm DNA fragmentation may play a role in unexplained RPL despite normal semen analysis parameters. (C) 2016 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
