Single-cell-based non-invasive screening for fetal pathogenic microimbalances using maternal blood: comparison with invasive prenatal diagnosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Pathogenic or likely pathogenic copy‐number variants (p/lpCNVs) are a significant cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Current prenatal screening based on cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fails to detect the majority of microimbalances (microdeletions/microduplications), leaving a significant residual risk of undetected chromosomal ...
