  2. b Determined according to supplementary Table 2 [see Additional file].
  3. c No deletion-specific product was detected, or the detected deletion-specific product represents pseudo-deletion (Id/In ≤ 0.0013).
  4. Samples were categorized in two groups based on their sperm parameters. "normal" group includes samples with normal parameters while "defected" group samples with at least one abnormal parameter (according to WHO criteria).
