TL;DR: This observational study examines seminal plasma biomarkers in fertile and infertile men, revealing no overall differences, but notable variations in specific subgroups, including elevated PGE2 in asthenozoospermic men and 6-keto-PGF1α in teratozoospermic men.
The Examination of the Influence of Caffeinated Coffee Consumption on the Concentrations of Serum Prolactin and Selected Parameters of the Oxidative-Antioxidant Balance in Young Adults: A Preliminary Report
TL;DR: The substances contained in caffeinated coffee decrease the level of prolactin and may also have an impact on selected parameters of oxidative stress, which could be the basis of future research focused on the identification of new therapeutic targets.
