Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of protein detection, and in particular relates to the application of biomarkers for the differential diagnosis of seminal plasma cell extracellular vesicles in obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia. Background technique
[0002] Azoospermia accounts for about 10%-15% of all infertile men, and it is usually divided into two categories: obstructive azoospermia (OA) and non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). The spermatogenesis function in the testes of OA patients is normal, but the obstruction of the male reproductive tract, such as pathological blockage of the epididymis, vas deferens or ejaculatory duct, or congenital abnormalities lead to sperm transport obstacles, accounting for about 40% of all azoospermia cases. NOA is one of the most serious forms of male infertility caused by testicular failure. Accurate diagnosis and classification of azoospermia is crucial, because the methods of sperm collection and trea...
