Clinical implications of rare and common variation in preimplantation genetic testing for breast cancer [PDF]
Recently, some clinics have begun using preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorders (PGT-M) for moderately penetrant breast cancer (BC) risk variants, while other clinics use polygenic risk scores (PRS) in the context of preimplantation ...

Successful birth after preimplantation genetic testing for rare mitochondrial DNA mutation m.10197G>A [PDF]
Here we report the first successful birth after preimplantation genetic testing for m.10197G>A mutation, a rare variant responsible for Leigh encephalopathy. Preimplantation genetic testing diagnosed the embryo with a mutant load of

The clinical application and challenges of preimplantation genetic testing [PDF]
Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) has rapidly advanced due to the significant development of genetic testing technologies. As an integration of genetic testing and assisted reproductive technology (ART), PGT plays a pivotal role in the primary ...

Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Background and objectives A genetic cause can be identified for an increasing number of pediatric and adult-onset kidney diseases. Preimplantation genetic testing (formerly known as preimplantation genetic diagnostics) is a reproductive technology that helps prospective parents to prevent passing on (a) disease-causing mutation(

Non-Invasive Preimplantation Genetic Testing. [PDF]
To minimise the influence of chromosomal abnormalities during IVF treatment, embryos can be screened before transfer using preimplantation genetic testing. This typically involves an invasive trophectoderm biopsy at the blastocyst stage, where 4-8 cells are collected and analysed.

Preimplantation genetic testing for Marfan syndrome [PDF]
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disease that affects the skeletal, ocular and cardiovascular systems. Defects in the gene that codes for fibrillin (FBN-1) are responsible for MFS. Here we report the world's first use of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) to achieve a clinical pregnancy and live birth of a baby free of a Marfan ...

Noninvasive preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy using blastocyst spent culture medium may serve as a backup of trophectoderm biopsy in conventional preimplantation genetic testing [PDF]
Background To investigate whether the noninvasive preimplantation genetic testing (niPGT) complement conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) in the embryos for aneuploidy.

Preimplantation genetic testing [PDF]
The application of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) began in the late 1980s. Pre-implantation genetic testing, as the earliest possible method of prenatal diagnosis, enables the selection of embryos with a normal karyotype for embryo transfer. The use of preimplantation genetic testing has proven to be a useful method in the following three groups

Preimplantation genetic testing: A narrative review. [PDF]
Abstract Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) is a diagnostic procedure that has become a powerful complement to assisted reproduction techniques. PGT has numerous indications, and there is a wide range of techniques that can be used, each with advantages and limitations that should be considered before choosing the more adequate one.
