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?

Molecular 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.

Retrospective results of our Non-Invasive Prenatal Test (NIPT) experience

Ege Tıp Dergisi
Aim: Non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) has become widespread over the years with higher probabilities of detection and fewer false positives with regard to traditionally used screening techniques. We aimed to document the experience of introducing this kind of equipment intoiclinical practice, evaluate its impact on the detection of fetal-aneuploidies,

Fetal Fraction Signatures: A Quality Control Tool to Detect Potentially Confounding Situations in NonInvasive Prenatal Diagnosis of Monogenic Conditions

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis for monogenic diseases (NIPD‐M) to detect inherited mutations is performed in parallel with fetal fraction signatures, to detect various anomalies that may compromise diagnosis. An extra regression analysis may be necessary to resolve mosaic situations. ABSTRACT Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis relies on the analysis of the
