To evaluate the effect of cigarette smoking on antioxidant levels and the presence of leukocytospermia in infertile men.
Prospective study.
Academic medical center.
PATIENT(S): Ten fertile donors and 112 infertile patients were included in the study.
INTERVENTION(S): None.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Semen analysis was performed according to the World Health Organization guideline. The activity of the superoxide dismutase was based on the adrenochrome concentration, and the catalase activity was determined by the velocity of hydrogen peroxide consumption.
RESULT(S): Lower levels of superoxide dismutase and catalase were seen in infertile patients compared with fertile donors. Superoxide dismutase was significantly correlated with sperm concentration and negatively correlated with leukocytospermia. In addition, leukocytospermia was inversely correlated with sperm motility. Superoxide dismutase levels were negatively related to cigarette smoking.
CONCLUSION(S): Cigarette smoking may impair sperm motility and decrease the antioxidant activity (negative correlation with superoxide dismutase) in the seminal plasma.
评估吸烟对不育男性抗氧化剂水平及白细胞精子症存在情况的影响。
前瞻性研究。
学术医疗中心。
本研究纳入了10名生育力正常的供者和112名不育患者。
无。
根据世界卫生组织指南进行精液分析。超氧化物歧化酶活性基于肾上腺素色素浓度测定,过氧化氢酶活性通过过氧化氢消耗速度来确定。
与生育力正常的供者相比,不育患者的超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶水平较低。超氧化物歧化酶与精子浓度显著相关,与白细胞精子症呈负相关。此外,白细胞精子症与精子活力呈负相关。超氧化物歧化酶水平与吸烟呈负相关。
吸烟可能损害精子活力并降低精浆中的抗氧化活性(与超氧化物歧化酶呈负相关)。
