Testicular and epididymal dysfunctions: searching a new index for the differential diagnosis by Fernando T. Andrade-Rocha, Walter D. Cardona-Maya

“…Semen samples with asthenozoospermia suggested epididymal dysfunction (area under the curve [AUC] 0.889, confidence interval [CI] 0.783-1), whereas semen samples with teratoasthenozoospermia suggested dysfunction in both testicles and epididymis (AUC 0.891, CI 0.77-1). Conclusions: The current index proof-of-principle of the success of such a strategy provides valuable information about whether a disorder individually affects testicular and/or epididymal function. …”
