“…In our present study, chromosomal alterations in the NOA men were 14.3%, which was higher than published data of the average level (8.2%) and the Indian average level (10.8%) (Akbari, Behjati, Pourmand, Asbagh, & Kachoui, ; Rao et al., ), and were lower than that in some Western countries (14.5%–26.3%) (Akbari et al., ; Akin, Onay, Turker, & Ozkinay, ; Frouzandeh, Saeideh, & Sanaz, ; Kate, Pokale, Jadhav, & Gangane, ; Mohammed et al., ; Rao et al., ). Such variability among different series is likely to be related to a dissimilar composition of the studied populations, mostly to the severity of male factor (Pylyp, Spinenko, Verhoglyad, & Zukin, ). Based on these observations, we proposed that the chromosomal alterations are important factors in male infertility in the Chinese population who underwent testicular biopsies.…”
