“Prescription opioid abuse and overdose is on the rise throughout North America,” says the SFU Health Sciences associate professor and lead author of the study…
The researchers also determined that the type of facility where sperm is taken and its distance from the IVF laboratory has no bearing on pregnancy outcomes. The findings, published online in PLOS ONE, may benefit men with no sperm in their semen due to genetics, cancer diagnoses or testicular failure. These men do not have enough sperm to have their own children through IVF without being biopsied. …
