Results of the logistic regression analysis on the mTESE variable status by the age of LH, FSH, testosterone and overall ultrasound


Parameters Variables Exp (β) P value

Demographic Age (Y) 0.836 0.022
BMI (kg/m2) 1.002 0.977
Testicular size RT 1.205 0.206
LT 1.198 0.188
Hormonal profiles LH(ng/mL) 0.922 0.044
FSH(ng/mL) 0.942 0.039
Testesterone(ng/mL) 1.602 0.043
Ultrasonography Total sono 1.951 0.008

Logistic regression data by considering the microtese variable as a dependent variable, the age of LH, FSH, testosterone and overall ultrasound had a significant relationship. Age, LH, and FSH have a significant negative relationship (because the value of exp (β) is less than 1) and testosterone and ultrasonography overall had a positive relationship with microtese. BMI; Body mass index, RT; right testis, LT; Left testis, LH; Luteinizing hormone, and FSH; Follicle-stimulating hormone. Exp (β) shows the superiority ratios for each of the predictor variables.
