Table 1.

Semen analysis DNA fragmentation rates when grouped by viability

Sperm viability DNA fragmentation rate (mean +/- standard deviation)
0-20% 70.07 +/- 34.39%
21-40% 58.03 +/- 28.28%
41-60% 38.19 +/- 17.95%
61-80% 20.40 +/- 10.16%
81-100% 12.40 +/- 5.61%

Higher sperm DNA fragmentation rates were associated with lower sperm viability rates.
