Multiple logistic regression between HPV variable and significant independent variables described in Table 1.
| Multivariate analysis | Coefficient | Standard error | OR | 95% CI | p-value |

| HPV/rapid progressive motility % | 0.09 | 0.04 | 1.09 | 1.02–1.17 | 0.0148* |
| HPV/slow progressive motility % | − 0.07 | 0.03 | 0.94 | 0.89–0.99 | 0.0168* |
| HPV/non-progressive % | 0.01 | 0.03 | 1.01 | 0.96–1.06 | 0.62 |

| HPV/neck and midpiece defects % | 0.11 | 0.04 | 1.11 | 1.04–1.19 | 0.0026* |
| HPV/tail defects %. | 0.05 | 0.04 | 1.06 | 0.98–1.14 | 0.14 |

OR odds ratios; CI odds ratios confidence interval at 95%; The null model= − 2ln[L0], where L0 was the likelihood of obtaining the observations if the independent variables did not affect the outcome, the full model: -2ln[L0], where L0 was the likelihood of obtaining the observations with all independent variables incorporated in the model; C = chi-square test. *Significant test.
