| Abstract |
As fertilization with unselected apoptotic spermatozoa may contribute to failures in assisted reproductive techniques, it has become essential to remove this type of sperm in order to increase the success rates. Magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) is a sperm preparation technique that isolates non-apoptotic spermatozoa based on the expression of phosphatidylserine in the membrane of apoptotic sperm. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate whether there was a significant decrease in sperm DNA fragmentation (sDNAfrag) and verify which protocol was the most efficient. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 July 2023.
All research outputs
#4,931,650
of 24,119,703 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics
#244
of 1,697 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#54,811
of 267,414 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics
#2
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,119,703 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,697 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.8. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 267,414 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
