Investigation the Relationship between Spermatogenesis and the Levels of Some Hormones in a Sample of Infertile Iraqi Males with Azoospermia and Oligospermia
...Show More Authors

The objective of this study was to assess the levels of antiMullerian hormone (AMH), Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), testosteron,  luteinizing hormone (LH),  and estradiol (E2) as markers of spermatogenesis between fertile and infertile males. This study was conducted at (AlRamadi Teaching Hospital for maternity and children) and included 136 males partners of infertile couples. Samples were classified according to the WHO criteria of semen analysis into three groups; Azoospermia, Oligospermia, and normal(control). Assay  levels of these hormones were made in the serum and the semen of each sample. The results showed that the level of AMH in serum samples was non-significantly decreased (P>0.05) in both Azoospermia and Oligospermia groups compared to control (6.74±3.21 ng/ml and 6.01±0.25 ng/ml vs. 12.81±7.69 ng/ml). While FSH and LH levels, there were non-significantly(P > 0.05)  increased in both azoospermia and Oligospermia compared to control (FSH: 12.11±8.14 mIU/ml and 7.22±6.06 mIU/mlvs.3.14±1.27 mIU/ml; LH: 10.04±7.23 mIU/ml and 7.62±3.30 mIU/ml vs.5.57±2.03mIU/ml).In addition, there were non- significant differences (P> 0.05) of testosterone hormone level among the studied groups. Such, there was a non-significant decreased level of E2 (P> 0.05) in both Azoospermia and Oligospermiagroups compared to control (170.49±37.57 ng/ml and 137.20±53.92 ng/ml vs. 194.91±41.66 ng/ml).İn contrast to semen samples, the results of  AMH showed  a significant (P< 0.05) decreased level in both Azoospermia and Oligospermia compared to control (8.24±4.17 ng/ml and 8.85±4.79 ng/ml vs. 13.33±0.77 ng/ml). FSH level was  non-significant (P> 0.05) increased in Azoospermia and Oligospermia compared to control (3.97±1.91 mIU/ml and 4.09±2.50 mIU/ml vs. 2.47±1.29 mIU/ml). Such, there were  non-significant (P> 0.05)  increased levels of  LH and testosterone hormones in both Azoospermia and control  compared to Oligospermia (9.35±6.02 mIU/ml and 5.99±4.43 mIU/ml vs. 4.06±2.82 mIU/ml), and  significant (P< 0.05) increased level of E2 in both Azoospermia and Oligospermia compared to control (241.36±35.32 ng/ml and 220.86±48.96 ng/ml vs. 170.71±73.52 ng/ml).The study concluded that the AMH, FSH and E2 hormones levels in serum and semen samples may have been associated with the sperm production and may be a good marker for spermatogenesis, as well as Sertoli cell development. In addition, the age played a critical role in the level of the studied hormones.

Abstract<sec> <title>Background

Susceptibility to the pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has recently been associated with ABO blood groups in patients of different ethnicities. This study sought to understand the genetic association of this polymorphic system with risk of disease in Iraqi patients. Two outcomes of COVID-19, recovery and death, were also explored. ABO blood groups were determined in 300 hospitalized COVID-19 Iraqi patients (159 under therapy, 104 recovered, and 37 deceased) and 595 healthy blood donors. The detection kit for 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) RNA (PCR-Fluorescence Probing) was used in the diagnosis of disease.
