Figure 5

Graphics illustrating the sperm parameters and the fertility index of 90-day-old rats, obtained from the SC (Sham Control), A (Amifostine), D (Doxorubicin) and AD (Amifostine/Doxorubicin) groups. 5A: Box plots showing the median for sperm concentration in each group indicated by the line in the boxes which in themselves contain 50% of the data. The upper and lower hinges of the boxes indicate the 25-75 percentiles. Values within 1.5 times the interquartil range are indicated by the lines. 5B: Percentage of sperm that displayed any type of movement and normal morphology; 5C: Fertility index. Mean values +/- standard deviation; P < 0.05 (a and b). Labels - 5A: a = D < SC, A and AD; b = AD < SC and A. 5B: a = D < SC, A and AD; b = AD < SC and A. 5C: a = D < SC and A; b = AD < SC, A and D.
