Growing evidence suggests an association between HPV infection with many adverse effects including the impairment of semen parameters, the increase of blastocyst apoptosis, the reduction of endometrial implantation of trophoblastic cells, as well as the increase rate of miscarriages and spontaneous preterm birth.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We systematically searched PubMed\/MEDLINE, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, CINHAL, PsycINFO, and ERIC from inception to 2nd of July 2024, for studies that investigated the association between HPV infection with sperm parameters and fertility outcomes.

Sperm morphology was lower in HPV positive groups versus HPV negative control groups (SMD\u2009=\u2009\u20100.52 95% CI \u22120.84; \u22120.21;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.001).

Sperm volume, concentration, and pH were not significantly different between the two groups. The other 15 studies included in the systematic review for which it was not possible to conduct a meta\u2010analysis showed strong associations between HPV infection and impairment of sperm parameters, reduced couple fertility and increased risk of pregnancy loss.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The current evidence highlights the link between HPV infection and sperm parameters, male fertility and reproductive outcomes, which has the potential to lead to a decreased couple fertility, increased risk of pregnancy loss, re\u2010infection and increased treatment costs.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.70048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,30]],"date-time":"2024-08-30T00:43:42Z","timestamp":1724978622000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Papillomavirus infection and male infertility: A systematic review and meta\u2010analysis"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Andrea","family":"Garolla","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Unit of Andrology and Reproductive Medicine, Department of Medicine University of Padova Padova Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Silvia","family":"Mereu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unit of Andrology and Reproductive Medicine, Department of Medicine University of Padova Padova Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4122-0774","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Damiano","family":"Pizzol","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Unit, Eni San Donato Milanese Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dong Keon","family":"Yon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Digital Health, Medical Science Research Institute, Kyung Hee University Medical Center Kyung Hee University College of Medicine Seoul South Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Masoud","family":"Rahmati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education and Sport Sciences, Faculty of Literature and Human Sciences Lorestan University Khoramabad Iran"},{"name":"Department of Physical Education and Sport Sciences, Faculty of Literature and Humanities Vali\u2010E\u2010Asr University of Rafsanjan Rafsanjan Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pinar","family":"Soysal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geriatric Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Bezmialem Vakif University Istanbul Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Petre Cristian","family":"Ilie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Queen Elizabeth Hospital Foundation Trust King's Lynn UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alessandro","family":"Bertoldo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unit of ART \u201cG.Beltrame\u201d, Department of Obtetrics and Ginecology, Ospedale di Oderzo Treviso ULSS2 Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mike","family":"Trott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Princess Alexandra Hospital University of Queensland Building 33 Brisbane Queensland Australia"},{"name":"Metro South Addiction and Mental Health Services Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lee","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Health, Performance and Wellbeing Anglia Ruskin University Cambridge UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S2214-109X(23)00305-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Working Group on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humans.
