Diagnostic Biomarkers of Heat Stress Induced- DNA in Occupational Exposure: A Systematic Review
Introduction: Climate change and hot processes in the workplaces has led to an increase in the effects of heat stress on employed people, which has become a major concern, especially in tropical and subtropical countries. Early detection of biomarkers in induction of heat stress-related DNA damage can be used in the identification and evaluation of health and safety, including occupational heal...
متن کاملEffect of occupational exposures on male fertility: literature review.
The present review was aimed to determine the influence of working conditions, occupational exposures to potential chemical and physical reproductive toxic agents and psychological stress during work on male fertility. Significant associations were reported between impaired semen parameters and the following chemical exposures: metals (lead, mercury), pesticides (dibromochlorophane, 2,4-dichlor...
متن کاملA Review on Male Fertility
Spermatogenesis is a complex process that involves stem-cell renewal, genome reorganization and genome repackaging, and that culminates in the production of motile gametes. Problems at all stages of spermatogenesis contribute to human infertility. Male infertility, is characterized by hypogonadism, decreased semen quality or ejaculatory dysfunction, accounts for approximately 20% of infertility...
متن کاملO-4: Occupational Heat Exposures and Male Infertility
Background: In humans, as in most mammals, spermatogenesis is temperature dependent. Experimental studies in animals and humans have demonstrated the role of exogenous heat exposure in male infertility. Several occupational and environmental exposures and toxins have known or suspected deleterious actions to male reproductive function. The main objective of this study was to determine the frequ...
متن کاملExposure to lead and male fertility.
Lead is a reproductive toxicant. Exposure to inorganic lead is detrimental to human semen quality. The studies of the risk of spontaneous abortion and congenital malformation have shown contradictory findings. The aim of the following review is to summarise the epidemiological evidence of the effects of inorganic lead on male fertility. The focus is on epidemiological studies of time-to-pregnan...
