摘要
背景:COVID-19灭活疫苗对sars - cov -2相关精液损伤的保护作用尚不清楚。我们研究了BBIBP-CorV疫苗接种与SARS-CoV-2感染恢复期男性精液质量之间的关系。研究设计与方法:本研究为单中心回顾性队列研究,纳入2023年2月- 5月在乌鲁木齐市某三级医院SARS-CoV-2感染恢复期男性1496例。根据收集精液和最近一次感染SARS-CoV-2之间的间隔,参与者被分为长期和短期效果组。该研究评估了两组不同剂量的BBIBP-CorV疫苗接种与精液质量之间的关系。结果:短期组(n = 307)和长期组(n = 1189)共招募了1496名参与者。参与者的中位年龄为32岁(IQR: 30,35)。与未接种疫苗的对照组相比,2剂和3剂接种者的短期精液质量受损风险降低,调整后的RR分别为0.945 (95% CI 0.918, 0.973)和0.965 (95% CI 0.937, 0.993)。长期效应组没有发现显著的结果。结论:COVID-19灭活疫苗可预防SARS-CoV-2 Omicron感染后90天内恢复期男性精液质量受损,尤其是在精液量和精子进进活力方面。
Association between inactivated COVID-19 vaccine and semen quality among males recovered from omicron infection: a retrospective cohort study.
Background: The protective effects of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines against SARS-CoV-2-associated semen impairment remain underexplored. We investigated associations between BBIBP-CorV vaccination and the semen quality in males recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Research design and methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included 1,496 males recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection at a tertiary hospital in Urumqi, China (February-May 2023). Participants were categorized into long-term and short-term effects groups based on the interval between semen collection and their most recent SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study assessed the association between the different doses of BBIBP-CorV vaccination and semen quality in both groups.
Results: A total of 1496 participants were recruited for the short-term (n = 307) and long-term effect groups (n = 1189). Participants had a median age of 32 (IQR: 30, 35). Compared to unvaccinated controls, 2-dose and 3-dose recipients showed reduced short-term semen quality impairment risks, with adjusted RR of 0.945 (95% CI 0.918, 0.973) and 0.965 (95% CI 0.937, 0.993), respectively. No significant results were found for long-term effect groups.
Conclusion: Inactivated COVID-19 vaccination may protect against semen quality impairment among males recovering from SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection within 90 days, especially in terms of semen volume and sperm progressive motility.
