Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a special issue of Medicina focused on "Advances in the Management of Male Infertility: Innovative Strategies and Emerging Technologies for Improved Diagnosis and Treatment". Male infertility is a complex problem affecting millions of men worldwide. Although it is widespread, many aspects of male infertility remain poorly understood, and effective treatment options are limited. This special issue of Medicina highlights recent advances in the treatment of male infertility, focusing on innovative strategies and new technologies for improved diagnosis and treatment. We welcome original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that cover a range of topics related to male infertility, including but not limited to:
- New diagnostic methods for male infertility, such as genetic testing and imaging
- New technologies for the treatment of male infertility, e.g., gene therapy and stem cell therapy
- Innovative treatment strategies for male infertility, including surgical interventions, pharmacological therapies, and assisted reproductive technologies.
- Advances in understanding the causes of male infertility, including genetic and environmental factors
- The role of diet and nutritional supplements in male infertility
- The impact of male infertility on mental health and quality of life
- Emerging technologies for male infertility management, such as genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics
- The future of male infertility treatment, including the potential of personalized medicine and precision therapies.
We also welcome submissions on other topics related to the management of male infertility. All submissions will be subject to a rigorous peer-review process, and accepted papers will be published in a special issue of Medicina. Please submit your manuscript online through the Medicina’s submission system, indicating that your paper is intended for the special issue on "Advances in the Management of Male Infertility: Innovative Strategies and Emerging Technologies for Improved Diagnosis and Treatment". We look forward to receiving your submissions and to publishing a comprehensive overview of recent development in the management of male infertility.
Sincerely,
Dr. Aris Kaltsas
