Prevalence of Y chromosome microdeletions among infertile Mongolian men.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Y chromosome microdeletions are the second most common genetic cause of male infertility after Klinefelter syndrome. The aim of this study was to determine the patterns of Y chromosome microdeletions among infertile Mongolian men.

Methods

A descriptive study was performed on 75 infertile men from February 2017 to December 2018. Y chromosome microdeletions were identified by polymerase chain reaction. Semen parameters, hormonal levels, and testis biopsy samples were examined.

Results

Among 75 infertile men, two cases of Y chromosome microdeletions were identified. The first case had an AZFa complete deletion and the other had an AZFc partial deletion. This study found that the proportion of Y chromosome microdeletions among infertile Mongolian men was 2.66%.

Conclusion

The findings can be applied to in vitro fertilization and assisted reproductive technology, and our results will help clinicians improve treatment management for infertile Mongolian couples.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence of Y chromosome microdeletions varies among men with infertility across regions and ethnicities worldwide. However, comprehensive epidemiological studies on Y chromosome microdeletions in Chinese men with infertility are lacking. We aimed to investigate Y chromosome microdeletions prevalence among Chinese men with infertility and its correlation with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes.MethodsThis single-center retrospective study included 4,714 men with infertility who were evaluated at the Reproductive Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between May 2017 and January 2021. Semen analysis and Y-chromosome microdeletion via multiplex polymerase chain reaction were conducted on the men. The study compared outcomes of 36 ICSI cycles from couples with male azoospermia factor (AZF)cd deletions with those of a control group, which included 72 ICSI cycles from couples without male Y chromosome microdeletions, during the same period. Both groups underwent ICSI treatment using ejaculated sperm.ResultsAmong 4,714 Chinese men with infertility, 3.31% had Y chromosome microdeletions. The combined deletion of sY254 and sY255 in the AZFc region and sY152 in the AZFd region was the prevalent pattern of Y chromosome microdeletion, with 3.05% detection rate. The detection rates of AZF deletions in patients with normal total sperm count, mild oligozoospermia, severe oligozoospermia, cryptozoospermia, and azoospermia were 0.17%, 1.13%, 5.53%, 71.43%, and 7.54%, respectively. Compared with the control group, the AZFcd deletion group exhibited no significant difference in the laboratory results or pregnancy outcomes of ICSI cycles using ejaculated sperm.ConclusionsThis is the largest epidemiological study on Y chromosome microdeletions in Chinese men with infertility. The study results underline the necessity for detecting Y chromosome microdeletion in men with infertility and severe sperm count abnormalities, especially those with cryptozoospermia. The combined deletion of sY254 and sY255 in the AZFc region and sY152 in the AZFd region was the most prevalent Y chromosome microdeletion pattern. Among patients with AZFcd deletion and ejaculated sperm, ICSI treatment can result in pregnancy outcomes, similar to those without AZFcd deletion.

Project description:BackgroundGenerally, infertile men hide their depression, which can threaten their health and lower their quality of life. Given the role of depression and its impact on people's health, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the prevalence of depression in infertile men.MethodsThis research is a systematic review and meta-analysis based on preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA). Using the keywords of "Depression", "Emotional Depression", "Infertility", "Prevalence", and "Epidemiology", all English language articles were searched in international databases (PubMed, Cochran library, Web of sciences, Scopus, Embase, PsyINFO, and Google scholar) by two reviewers independently and without considering the time limit until September 2022. Title, abstract, full text and quality of each study were evaluated by two reviewers independently using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale checklist. The results were analyzed using programming language and R software, and I2 test and Egger's Test were used to check heterogeneity and publication bias, respectively.ResultsTwenty-two studies were included in the systematic part of this study; and 8 different measurement tools were used to identify depression. Then, based on the possibility of meta-analysis, 18 studies were included in 4 subgroups. Given the heterogeneity of the articles, random effect model was used. The overall prevalence of depression in infertile men was 18.30%. The lowest and highest overall prevalence of depression in men was reported to be 14.04% and 23.63% in the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (ZDS) and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS) tools, respectively. The overall prevalence of depression among infertile men was reported to be 18.55% and 16.75% using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) tools, respectively.ConclusionBased on the findings of this study, the significant prevalence of depression in infertile men requires a specific attention and planning. The study revealed varying degrees of depression among infertile men, emphasizing the importance of assessing their mental health, specifically in terms of depression, during infertility treatments as a hidden variable. It is strongly recommended to develop training programs for health service providers to effectively utilize diagnostic tools in this particular field.
