Abstract:
About 15% of the world's population at child-bearing age suffer from infertility. After cancer and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the infertility will become the third-largest intractable disease. Among the causes of infertility, male factors account for about half. As a main male factor, genetic factor has become the focus of reproductive research in recent years. Therefore, to formulate a corresponding diagnosis and treatment scheme for male infertility, accurate genetic testing is needed. It is an effective means to meet the demand of high fertility and solve the problem of population decline in current society.
