根据UW的一项研究,西雅图的野火烟雾暴露与男子精子质量较低有关。 Wildfire smoke exposure in Seattle linked to lower sperm quality in men, per a UW study.

华盛顿大学的一项研究将野火烟雾暴露与男性精子质量下降联系起来,在2018年至2022年西雅图重大烟雾事件期间发现精子浓度、计数和运动性较低。 A University of Washington study links wildfire smoke exposure to reduced sperm quality in men, finding lower sperm concentration, count, and motility during major smoke events in Seattle between 2018 and 2022. 研究人员分析了正在接受生育治疗的84名男子的精液样本,注意到高烟年中精液持续下降。 Researchers analyzed semen samples from 84 men undergoing fertility treatment, noting consistent declines during high-smoke years. 虽然一项计量功能略有增加,但并未抵消总体减少量。 While one motility measure slightly increased, it did not offset overall reductions. 该研究报告在《生育和绝育》中发表,它补充了空气污染影响生殖健康的证据,尽管它没有评估生育结果或恢复时限。 The study, published in Fertility and Sterility, adds to evidence that air pollution affects reproductive health, though it did not assess fertility outcomes or recovery timelines. 目前正在进行一项后续研究,以审查精子质量在接触后可能迅速反弹的情况。 A follow-up study is underway to examine how quickly sperm quality may rebound after exposure.
