Non-invasive prenatal screening tests – update 2022

Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2022
Abstract Since 2012, non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) using cell-free DNA from maternal plasma is applied all over the world as highly efficient first-line or contingent screening approach for trisomy 13, 18 and 21. With further technical development the screening has expanded to other genetic conditions such as sex chromosome ...

Non-invasive Prenatal Testing in Pregnancies Following Assisted Reproduction

Current Genomics, 2022
Abstract: In the decade since non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) was first implemented as a prenatal screening tool, it has gained recognition for its sensitivity and specificity in the detection of common aneuploidies. This review mainly focuses on the emerging role of NIPT in pregnancies following assisted reproductive technology (ART) in the ...

Novel Algorithms for Improved Sensitivity in Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing

Scientific Reports, 2017
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) of cell-free DNA in maternal plasma, which is a mixture of maternal DNA and a low percentage of fetal DNA, can detect fetal aneuploidies using massively parallel sequencing. Because of the low percentage of fetal DNA,

Eliciting women’s preference for prenatal testing in China: a discrete choice experiment

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2020
Background Pregnancy tests can be used for the early diagnosis of fetal problems and can prevent abnormal birth in pregnancies. Yet, testing preferences among Chinese women are poorly investigated. Methods We developed a Discrete Choice Experiment with 5

Case Report: Prenatal diagnosis of fetal tetrasomy 9p initially identified by non-invasive prenatal testing

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Tetrasomy 9p is a rare syndrome characterized by fetal growth restriction, Dandy-Walker malformation, cardiac anomalies, and facial abnormalities and is discovered by ultrasound during the prenatal examination.

Comparative evaluation of the Minimally-Invasive Karyotyping (MINK) algorithm for non-invasive prenatal testing. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Minimally Invasive Karyotyping (MINK) was communicated in 2009 as a novel method for the non-invasive detection of fetal copy number anomalies in maternal plasma DNA. The original manuscript illustrated the potential of MINK using a model system in which
