Clinical Characteristics, Semen Parameters, and Reproductive Hormone Profiles in Infertile Men with Testicular Microlithiasis: A Meta-analysis

/mL. Subgroup analysis showed that CTM was associated with significantly lower sperm concentration than LTM (P = 0.042), whereas no significant differences were observed between CTM and LTM for sperm morphology or gonadotropin levels.. In conclusion, this meta-analysis provides a descriptive synthesis of clinical findings, semen characteristics, and endocrine profiles in infertile men with TM.
