Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to explore the ambiguous link between dietary inflammatory indices and sperm parameters. Specifically, it investigated the associations between the dietary inflammatory index (DII) and the energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII) with sperm motility, morphology, and count in men undergoing routine semen analysis.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 144 men enrolled, where semen samples were collected and evaluated according to the 2010 World Health Organization guidelines. Dietary data were gathered using a 147-item semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire developed by the researchers. Pearson correlation analysis was employed to assess the relationships of the DII and E-DII with sperm parameters.

Results: The mean DII and E-DII scores were 1.23±1.1 and 0.49±0.43, respectively. The mean values for sperm motility, morphology, and count were 43.08%±19.30%, 78.03%±26.99%, and 48.12±44.41 million, respectively. Both motility (r=-0.353) and count (r=-0.348) were found to be inversely and significantly correlated with DII. Similarly, Pearson correlation tests revealed strong and significant inverse correlations of motility (r=-0.389) and count (r=-0.372) with E-DII.

Conclusion: The findings suggest that a diet with a higher anti-inflammatory potential may be associated with increased sperm count and motility, but not with changes in morphology. Further research is necessary to confirm these findings, elucidate the underlying mechanisms, and identify dietary modifications that could improve male fertility.

膳食炎症指数(DII 和 E-DII)与精子参数的关系。
研究目的本研究旨在探讨膳食炎症指数与精子参数之间的模糊联系。具体来说,它调查了接受常规精液分析的男性的膳食炎症指数(DII)和能量调整膳食炎症指数(E-DII)与精子活力、形态和数量之间的关系:这项横断面研究共有 144 名男性参加,根据 2010 年世界卫生组织指南收集和评估精液样本。研究人员使用自己编制的 147 项半定量食物频率问卷收集了饮食数据。采用皮尔逊相关分析评估 DII 和 E-DII 与精子参数的关系:结果:DII和E-DII的平均值分别为1.23±1.1和0.49±0.43。精子活力、形态和数量的平均值分别为 43.08%±19.30%、78.03%±26.99% 和 48.12±44.41 百万。研究发现,精子活力(r=-0.353)和精子数量(r=-0.348)与精子活力指数呈显著的反相关。同样,Pearson 相关性检验也显示,蠕动(r=-0.389)和计数(r=-0.372)与 E-DII 呈显著的反向相关:研究结果表明,抗炎潜力较高的饮食可能与精子数量和活力的增加有关,但与形态的变化无关。有必要开展进一步研究,以证实这些发现,阐明其潜在机制,并确定可提高男性生育能力的饮食调整方法。
