Spermatozoa from infertile men exhibit higher levels of DNA damage compared to fertile men, and sperm DNA damage is strongly associated with low sperm quality [3] [8] but also reduced fertility [9], perturbed foetal development and early embryonic loss [10].
Sex had a limited effect on clearance and volume parameters, with men exhibiting higher steady-state clearance and central volume than women.
Supporting these observations, multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender as an independent predictor, with men exhibiting higher odds of developing complications when compared to female patients.
This implies faster deterioration of particular processes in the aging female brain and is reminiscent of the 'health-survival paradox': old women appear in worse health than old men, but men exhibit higher mortality (Oksuzyan et al., 2008).
Albeit at comparable exposure levels, men exhibit higher incidence rates for leishmaniasis (2.5- to 3.5-fold increased incidence), pulmonary tuberculosis (2- to 3-fold), and hepatitis A (1.4-fold), again surmising the role of distinct biological differences (Guerra-Silveira & Abad-Franch, 2013).
15 43 Overall, compared with men, women exhibited higher risks of experiencing one of the four types of death as levels of frailty increased, owing to their older age and therefore increased physiological frailty.
Depending on the subscale, either men or women exhibited higher values at the 50th percentile.
As documented in Table 3, men exhibited 17% higher peak speed at a 62% higher peak work rate in the VO2max test (P < 0.05).
As depicted in Table 2, at this speed men exhibited 36% higher absolute VO2 values and 39% higher work rates (P < 0.05 in both cases).
In addition, we found that men exhibited significantly higher side-turning force and back-turning force compared with women.
