The study population consisted of 195 men who were attending an infertility clinic for diagnostic purposes and who had normal semen concentration of 15\u2013300 mln\/ml (WHO, 2010). Participants represented a subset of men in a multicenter parent study conducted in Poland to evaluate environmental factors and male fertility. Participants were interviewed and provided a semen sample. The Y:X ratio was assessed by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Air quality data were obtained from the AirBase database. In multivariate analysis the significant reduction was observed in the proportion of Y\/X chromosome bearing sperm and exposure to particulate matter &gt;10 \u03bcm in aerodynamic diameter PM\n                    <jats:sub>10<\/jats:sub>\n                    ( p = .009) and particulate matter &lt;10 \u03bcm in aerodynamic diameter PM\n                    <jats:sub>2.5<\/jats:sub>\n                    ( p = .023). The observed effects of a lower Y:X sperm chromosome ratio among men exposed to air pollution support the evidence that the trend of declining sex ratio in several societies over past decades has been due to exposure to air pollution; however due to limited data on this issue, the obtained results should be confirmed in longitudinal studies.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1557988317752608","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,12]],"date-time":"2018-01-12T02:12:46Z","timestamp":1515723166000},"page":"907-912","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Air Pollution and Human Sperm Sex Ratio"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Micha\u0142","family":"Radwan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health Sciences, The State University of Applied Sciences in Plock, Plock, Poland"},{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Reproduction, \u201cGameta\u201d Hospital, Rzg\u00f3w, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emila","family":"Dziewirska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Epidemiology, Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine, Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pawe\u0142","family":"Radwan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Reproduction, \u201cGameta\u201d Hospital, Rzg\u00f3w, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lucjusz","family":"Jakubowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, Polish Mother\u2019s Memorial Hospital\u2014Research Institute, Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wojciech","family":"Hanke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Epidemiology, Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine, Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joanna","family":"Jurewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Epidemiology, Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine, Lodz, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,10]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"bibr1-1557988317752608","first-page":"37","volume":"156","author":"Allan B.
