| *Values represent the mean plus or minus the standard deviation of
computer-automated semen analysis of sperm characteristics of the total sperm
ejaculate and spermatozoa recovered from fraction 5 for each of the groups
studied. |
 PM indicates mean progressive motility (µm/s); LIN, mean linearity
index. |
| World Health Organization grading: A = rapid (>25 µm/s), B =
medium (>10 µm/s, <25 µm/s), C = slow (<10 µm/s), and D =
static. |
