description Background: The lack of clinically useful biomarkers for predicting micro-TESE outcomes in males with idiopathic NOA. To find clinically reliable serum reproductive hormone markers to predict the outcome of sperm retrieval in men with idiopathic NOA undergoing micro-TESE. Methods: We analyzed the clinical data of 168 men with idiopathic NOA treated with micro-TESE. The clinical predictors of a successful sperm retrieval were put to the test using logistic regression analysis. The clinical net benefit was calculated using a decision-curve analysis, and the predictive power of each variable was assessed using the ROC-derived area under the curve. Result: Between positive group and negative group for sperm retrieval, there was a statistically significant difference in INHB, AMH, and INHB/AMH. AMH, INHB, and INHB/AMH were each independent predictors of successful sperm retrieval, with INHB (OR1.02, p = 0.03), AMH (OR0.85, p = 0.01), INHB/AMH (OR1.08, p < 0.01). The ROC curve determined the optimal cut-off values for serum INHB and INHB/AMH in positive sperm retrieval patients undergoing micro-TESE. 21.51 pg/mL was the cut-off value for INHB. The cut-off value for INHB/AMH was 3.19, which had a 86.3% sensitivity and a 53.8% specificity. Using INHB and INHB/AMH prior to micro-TESE sperm retrieval in idiopathic NOA patients improved the net benefit of positive sperm retrieval, and the net benefit score of INHB/AMH was better than that of INHB, according to decision analysis curves. Conclusion: Serum INHB have predictive value for sperm retrieval outcomes in idiopathic NOA patients undergoing micro-TESE. Combining INHB and AMH, INHB/AMH seems to be a better predictor.
