Background Many of the genetic childhood disorders leading to death in the pre- or neonatal period or during early childhood follow autosomal recessive modes of inheritance and bear specific challenges for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnostics ...

The ethical challenges of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)
Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD or PIGD) refers to genetic profiling of embryos prior to implantation (as a form of embryo profiling). PGD has raised ethical issues, although this approach could reduce reliance on fetal selection during pregnancy.

False positive rate of an arrayCGH platform for single-cell preimplantation genetic screening and subsequent clinical application on day-3 [PDF]
In this work, false positive rate of an arrayCGH platform for its use in day-3 single-blastomere analysis was calculated. For this purpose, 38 embryos diagnosed as abnormal on day-3 by FISH were re-biopsied on day-4.

Endometrial stromal cells of women with recurrent miscarriage fail to discriminate between high- and low-quality human embryos [PDF]
Background The aetiology of recurrent miscarriage (RM) remains largely unexplained. Women with RM have a shorter time to pregnancy interval than normally fertile women, which may be due to more frequent implantation of non-viable embryos.
