Recent trends in prenatal genetic screening and testing [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
Prenatal testing in recent years has been moving toward non-invasive methods to determine the fetal risk for genetic disorders without incurring the risk of miscarriage.

Isolation and Enrichment of Circulating Fetal Cells for NIPD: An Overview
Prenatal diagnosis plays a crucial role in clinical genetics. Non-invasive prenatal diagnosis using fetal cells circulating in maternal peripheral blood has become the goal of prenatal diagnosis, to obtain complete fetal genetic information and avoid ...

The Safety Appliance Act and the FELA: A Plea for Clarification [PDF]
The aim of this thesis is to analyse and examine the debate on prenatal testing in Western countries, with a special focus on my own country, Sweden. In the near future it might be possible for a pregnant woman to profile the DNA of her foetus with a ...

Predicting fetoplacental chromosomal mosaicism during non‐invasive prenatal testing [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveNon‐invasive prenatal detection of aneuploidies can be achieved with high accuracy through sequencing of cell‐free maternal plasma DNA in the maternal blood plasma. However, false positive and negative non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) results remain.

Performance of screening for aneuploidies by cell-free DNA analysis of maternal blood in twin pregnancies [PDF]
Objectives To report clinical implementation of cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) analysis of maternal blood in screening for trisomies 21, 18 and 13 in twin pregnancies and examine variables that could influence the failure rate of the test.

Non-invasive prenatal diagnostic test accuracy for fetal sex using cell-free DNA a review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: Cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) can be detected in maternal blood during pregnancy, opening the possibility of early non-invasive prenatal diagnosis for a variety of genetic conditions.

Evaluation of a novel assay for detection of the fetal marker RASSF1A: facilitating improved diagnostic reliability of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis [PDF]
BackgroundAnalysis of cell free fetal (cff) DNA in maternal plasma is used routinely for non invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) of fetal sex determination, fetal rhesus D status and some single gene disorders.
