Background
Infertile men have a worse overall health status than their fertile counterparts.
Objective
We aimed to (1) compare kidney function in men presenting for primary couple's infertility with that of fertile men and (2) assess kidney function impairment toward sperm quality in infertile men.
Materials and methods
In this case–control study, 387 consecutive white‐European infertile men...
Background
In 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) has provided the latest update on processing and evaluating semen analysis.
Objectives
To assess (i) the rate of discordance in semen parameters categorization across three different WHO reference values (namely WHO21, 2010 and 1999) and (ii) the clinical differences among discordant semen analyses from a cohort of primary infertile men.

Background
Trends of male factor causes of couples' infertility over time have been poorly investigated.
Objective
We investigated trends in the causes of pure male factor infertility (MFI) throughout the last 10 years in a tertiary‐referral academic andrology center.
Material and Methods
Baseline characteristics at first presentation from a cohort of 1647 consecutive male factor infertility...

Semen analysis was based on 2010 World Health Organization reference criteria. Of all, 12.1% of infertile men and...
