主 题：male infertility semen sperm head
摘 要：Objective measurements are required for computer-aided sperm morphometric analysis （CASMA） machines to distinguish normal from abnormal sperm heads. The morphometric characteristics of spermatozoa in 72 samples of semen and of spermatozoa from 72 other semen samples after swim-up were quantified by the semi-automated Integrated Sperm Analysis System （ISAS） computer-aided system, which measured the sperm head parameters length （L）, width （W）, area （A）, perimeter （P）, acrosomal area （Ac）, and the derived values L/W and P/A. For each man a homogeneous population of distributions characterized seminal spermatozoa （7 942 cells： median values L 4.4 μm, W 2.8μm A 9.8 μm^2, P 12.5 μm, Ac 47.5%, L/W 1.57, P/A 1.27）, and there was no significant difference in within- and among-individual variation. Different men could have spermatozoa of significantly different dimensions. Head dimensions for swim-up spermatozoa from different men （4 812 cells） were similar to those in semen, differing only by 2%-5%. The values of L, Wand L/W fell within the limits given by the World Health Organization （WHO）. Although these samples were not biologically matched, linear mixed-effects statistical analyses permitted valid comparison of the groups. A subpopulation of 404 spermatozoa considered to fit the stringent criteria of WHO ‘normal＇ seminal spermatozoa from both semen and swim-up were characterized by median values （and 95% confidence intervals） of L, 4.3 μm （3.8-4.9）, W, 2.9 μm （2.6-3.3）, A, 10.2μm^2 （8.5-12.2）, P, 12.4μm （11.3-13.9）, Ac, 49% （36-60）, L/W, 1.49 （1.32-1.67） and P/A, 1.22 （1.11-1.35）. These median values fall within the 95th centile confidence limits given by WHO, but the confidence intervals for L and W were larger. Although these differences in head dimensions among men and after swim-up could be detected by CASMA, the small differences make it unlikely that technicians would be able to distinguish them. The values could be used as default sperm head values for the CASMA
