Varicocele adversely affects semen parameters.However,the effect of varicocele repair on the sperm retrieval rate and testicular histopathological patterns in men with nonobstructive azoospermia has not been widely reported.We retrospectively assessed the sperm retrieval rates and testicular histopathological patterns in men with nonobstructive azoospermia who were referred to the Urology Clinic in Dr.Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital(Jakarta,Indonesia)and Bunda General Hospital(Jakarta,Indonesia)between January 2009 and December 2019.We compared patients who had undergone a surgical sperm retrieval procedure for assisted reproductive technology no earlier than three months after varicocele repair and those who had not undergone varicocele repair.The study included 104 patients(age range:26-54 years),42 of whom had undergone varicocele repair before the sperm retrieval procedure and 62 who had not.Motile spermatozoa were found in 29(69.1%)and 17(27.4%)patients who had undergone varicocele repair before the sperm retrieval procedure and those who had not undergone the repair,respectively(relative risk:2.51;95%confidence interval:1.60-3.96;P<0.001).A predicted probabilities graph showed consistently higher sperm retrieval rates for patients with varicocele repair,regardless of their follicle-stimulating hormone levels.Patients who underwent varicocele repair showed higher testicular histopathological patterns(P=0.001).In conclusion,men with nonobstructive azoospermia and clinical varicocele who underwent varicocele repair before the sperm retrieval procedure had higher sperm retrieval rates compared to those who did not undergo varicocele repair.

为探究风化砂的工程性质,对水泥稳定风化砂进行了力学性能试验,研究了水泥掺量和养护龄期对其抗压强度、劈裂强度和抗压回弹模量的影响,并采用扫描电镜试验对水泥稳定风化砂的微观结构进行分析.结果表明,水泥稳定风化砂抗压强度与时间的关系可以用线性函数y=at+b表示,其中t为养护时间(d).水泥掺量达到3%及以上时,其7d无侧限抗压强度达到规范的要求.水泥的掺量对于劈裂强度的提升具有明显的作用.3%的水泥掺量对稳定风化砂前期抗压回弹模量的提高效果最为显著.SEM结果显示,水泥稳定风化砂结构更为致密,颗粒之间存在着大
