Abstract

Since the end of the last century, several reports have suggested that semen quality is declining, especially in Western countries. Furthermore, cross-sectional studies using similar protocols have suggested regional differences in semen quality of young and fertile men. Reasons for these regional differences and local adverse trends in semen quality are unknown, but environmental factors are suspected to have a role. Besides adulthood environmental exposures, those occurring during testicular development may also affect semen quality. Longitudinal follow-up studies and mixture risk analyses are needed to study the effect of fetal, childhood, and adult life environment on semen quality.

精液质量下降：环境的作用

自上世纪末以来，多份报告显示精液质量正在下降，尤其是在西方国家。此外，采用类似方案进行的横断面研究表明，年轻男性和育龄男性的精液质量存在地区差异。造成这些地区差异和当地精液质量不良趋势的原因尚不清楚，但怀疑环境因素起了作用。除了成年期的环境暴露外，睾丸发育期间的环境暴露也可能影响精液质量。需要进行纵向跟踪研究和混合风险分析，以研究胎儿期、儿童期和成年期生活环境对精液质量的影响。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
