Effect of vitamin C on body weight, testicular index and sperm evaluation in sleep deprived rats. a Body weight in control (white column), sleep deprived (black column) and sleep deprived + vitamin C treated (grey column) groups. b Testicular index in control (white column), sleep deprived (black column) and sleep deprived + vitamin C treated (grey column) groups. c Sperm count in control (white column), sleep deprived (black column) and sleep deprived + vitamin C treated (grey column) groups. d Sperm viability in control (white column), sleep deprived (black column) and sleep deprived + vitamin C treated (grey column) groups. e Sperm motility in control (white column), sleep deprived (black column) and sleep deprived + vitamin C treated (grey column) groups. f Abnormal forms in control (white column), sleep deprived (black column) and sleep deprived + vitamin C treated (grey column) groups. (Significant = p < 0.05, * significant when compared to the control group, • significant when compared to the sleep deprived group, # significant when compared to the same group at the start of the experiment. Number of rats = 10/group)
