Role of hormones, genes, and environment in human cryptorchidism
Cryptorchidism is the most frequent congenital birth defect in male children (2–4% in full-
term male births), and it has the potential to impact the health of the human male. In fact …

Gr/gr deletions on Y-chromosome correlate with male infertility: an original study, Meta-Analyses and trial sequential analyses
We analyzed the AZFc region of the Y-chromosome for complete (b2/b4) and distinct partial
deletions (gr/gr, b1/b3, b2/b3) in 822 infertile and 225 proven fertile men. We observed …
