The article provides an overview of the most influential papers on the topic of “male infertility”. The selection criteria were the practical significance of the article and the impact factor of the journal in which it was published, according to SCImago Journal Rank (SJR). As a result, we created the list of 10 papers published in the I quarter (January – March) of 2020. The review included articles on the following issues: the effectiveness and safety of antioxidants, zinc and folic acid in the treatment of male infertility; the effect of obesity on sperm DNA-fragmentation; the possibility of obtaining of spermatogonia in children and adolescents with Kleinfelter syndrome; comparison of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and intracytoplasmic morphologically selected spermatozoa injection (IMSI); the reaction of the female reproductive system to the seminal fluid; viral profile in seminal fluid of men receiving the antiretroviral therapy, the effect of sleep duration on fertility and the risk of diabetes mellitus in children, conceived using assisted reproductive technologies.

The article provides an overview of the most influential papers on the topic of «male infertility». The main selection criteria were the practical significance of the article and the impact factor of the journal in which it was published, according to SCImago Journal Rank (SJR). As a result, we created the list of 10 papers published in the IV quarter (October − December) of 2019. The review included articles on the following issues: the effectiveness and prognostic factors of the effectiveness of microsurgical testicular sperm extraction (micro-TESE), the significance of sperm DNA fragmentation and «advanced paternal age» in the effectiveness of assisted reproduction technologies (ART) procedures, the role of latent chlamydial infection in azoospermia, management of adolescents with Kleinfelter syndrome, the effectiveness and safety of aromatase inhibitors in treatment of male infertility, sperm microbiome, the association between ART procedures and the cancer risk in children, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) treatment of male idiopathic infertility.

The article provides an overview of the most significant publications on the male infertility topic. The main selection criteria were considered the practical significance of the article, as well as the impact factor of the journal in which it was published, according to the SCImago Journal Rank (SJR). As a result, a list of 10 works published in the third quarter (July - September) of 2020 was formed. The review included articles on the following issues: redox balance in the male reproductive system, advanced paternal age, the effect of a new nasal form of testosterone on fertility, the correlation of PSA levels with infertility, as well as new data on the effect of COVID-19 on male fertility.

The article provides an overview of studies of antioxidant properties of the components contained in AndroDoz, as well as the results of using AndroDoz biocomplex, due to which infertile men showed an increase in concentration, motility and percentage of sperm with a normal form in the ejaculate, a decrease in sperm DNA fragmentation and an increase in pregnancy rates after using assisted reproductive technologies, as well as getting pregnant naturally. Due to absence of adverse events and side effects, AndroDoz can be recommended to a wide range of patients with pathozoospermia and idiopathic infertility.

Despite the prevalence of male factor infertility, most cases are defined as idiopathic, thus limiting treatment options and driving increased rates of recourse to assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs). Regrettably, our current armory of ARTs does not constitute therapeutic treatments for male infertility, thus highlighting an urgent need for novel intervention strategies. In our attempts to fill this void, we have come to appreciate that the production of pathological levels of oxygen radicals within the male germline are a defining etiology of many idiopathic infertility cases. Indeed, an imbalance of reactive oxygen species can precipitate a cascade of deleterious sequelae, beginning with the peroxidation of membrane lipids and culminating in cellular dysfunction and death. Here, we shine light on the importance of lipid homeostasis, and the impact of lipid stress in the demise of the male germ cell. We also seek to highlight the utility of emerging lipidomic technologies to enhance our understanding of the diverse roles that lipids play in sperm function, and to identify biomarkers capable of tracking infertility in patient cohorts. Such information should improve our fundamental understanding of the mechanistic causes of male infertility and find application in the development of efficacious treatment options.
