Values are mean ± S.D. a p < 0.01–0.001, vs. Normospermic HPV− and Normospermic HPV+ b p < 0.05–0.01 vs. Normospermic HPV+. (One-way ANOVA, Newman–Keuls post test). c p = 0.05–0.01 vs. Normospermic HPV+. d p = 0.01–0.001 vs. Normospermic HPV− and Normospermic HPV+ (Kruskal–Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparison test).
