Application of non-invasive prenatal testing in screening chromosomal aberrations in pregnancies with different nuchal translucency cutoffs

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2023
Objective To investigate the efficiency of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) in cases with different cutoffs of nuchal translucency (NT). Methods The study retrospectively analyses pregnancies with NT ≥ 2.5 mm who underwent NIPT.

Enabling faster and more reliable sonographic assessment of gestational age through machine learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Fetal ultrasounds are an essential part of prenatal care and can be used to estimate gestational age (GA). Accurate GA assessment is important for providing appropriate prenatal care throughout pregnancy and identifying complications such as fetal growth disorders.

Clinical Implementation of Next-generation Sequencing in the Field of Prenatal Diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The possibility to receive genetic information of the fetus from maternal blood during the course of pregnancy has been one of the main goals of research in prenatal medicine for decades.

First experiences with the introduction of genetic counselors in human genetic services in the German‐speaking countries

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Counseling, EarlyView.
Abstract In 2019, the Medical University of Innsbruck introduced the first Genetic and Genomic Counseling master's program in the German‐speaking countries. A major challenge of this process was the absence of practicing Genetic Counselors (GC) in these countries, leading to a lack of experience with GCs in medical genetic services and the absence of a

Detecting Outliers with Poisson Image Interpolation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Supervised learning of every possible pathology is unrealistic for many primary care applications like health screening. Image anomaly detection methods that learn normal appearance from only healthy data have shown promising results recently. We propose an alternative to image reconstruction-based and image embedding-based methods and propose a new ...

Non-invasive prenatal testing using cell-free fetal DNA from maternal plasma: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Nowadays, the use of cell-free fetal DNA (cfDNA) is a promising tool in clinical practice as a potential non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) method since it was discovered in early 1970s.

What proportion of couples with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss and with a balanced rearrangement in one parent can potentially be identified through cell-free DNA genotyping?

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2023
Background Balanced chromosome aberrations are reported in about 1:30 couples with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Karyotyping of both parents is necessary to identify these aberrations.

Bayesian outcome selection modelling [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Psychiatric and social epidemiology often involves assessing the effects of environmental exposure on outcomes that are difficult to measure directly. To address this problem, it is common to measure outcomes using a comprehensive battery of different tests thought to be related to a common, underlying construct of interest.

Lattice thermal conductivity of disordered NiPd and NiPt alloys [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys.: Condens. Matter 18, 4589 (2006), 2005
Numerical calculations of lattice thermal conductivity are reported for the binary alloys NiPd and NiPt. The present work is a continuation of an earlier paper by us [PRB, 72, 214207 (2005)]which had developed a theoretical framework for the calculation of configuration-averaged lattice thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity in disordered alloys.

Anomalous Hall effect in NiPt thin films [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Appl. Phys. 110, 033909 (2011), 2011
We study Hall effect in sputtered NixPt1-x thin films with different Ni concentrations. Temperature, magnetic field and angular dependencies are analyzed and the phase diagram of NiPt thin films is obtained. It is found that films with sub-critical Ni concentration exhibit cluster-glass behavior at low temperatures with a perpendicular magnetic ...
