" The DNA fragmentation index (DFI) assessment reveals a significant difference between the cases and the control group. There was a two-fold increase in ACR gene expression than in the RF-EMW exposure group. The contradictory result was seen in the other four genes, which showed that gene expression decreased to about 0.3 for PRM1 and SCP3, 0.5 for ITGA6, and 0.7 for ZBTB16. Sperm motility was not significantly different between the two groups, but morphology in the case group revealed higher abnormalities than in the control group." {Credits 1} {Credits 1} 🎪 Zahmatkesh, P., Mohammadi, A., Mashhadi, R., Khatami, F., Mirzaei, A., Zareian Baghdadabad, L., Khalili, F., Gholami, K., Rahimnia, R., Noori, N., & Aghamir, S.
