Patient Perception of Negative Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing Results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) uses cell-free fetal DNA to assess for fetal aneuploidy during pregnancy. NIPT has higher detection rates and positive predictive values than previous methods; however, NIPT is not diagnostic. Studies suggest patients

Prenatal diagnosis in fetal right aortic arch using chromosomal microarray analysis and whole exome sequencing: a Chinese single-center retrospective study

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics
Background Right aortic arch (RAA) is a common congenital aortic arch abnormality. Fetuses with RAA frequently have good outcomes after birth. However, chromosomal abnormalities and genetic syndromes suggest poor prognosis for these patients.

A Confirmatory Case of Severe Spondylocostal Dysostosis Caused by Biallelic Loss‐of‐Function of DMRT2

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spondylocostal dysostosis (SCDO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal development of the axial skeleton, resulting in malformations of the vertebrae and ribs that often impair lung development and lead to significant respiratory morbidity.

Clinically Irrelevant Terminal 16q21 Deletion Detected by NIPT Is Attributable to Inherited Fragility at FRA16B

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genome‐wide non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is a powerful tool for prenatal detection of the common aneuploidies causing Down‐, Edwards‐, and Patau syndrome. Its genome‐wide reach also enables the detection of unbalanced structural chromosomal abnormalities.

An OGT Missense Variant With Impaired Enzyme Activity in a Child With Severe Developmental Delay and Hepatoblastoma

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT O‐GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and its antagonist O‐GlcNAcase (OGA) regulate protein O‐GlcNAcylation, a highly conserved post‐translational modification involved in metabolic sensing. Pathogenic variants in the OGT gene cause an X‐linked congenital disorder of glycosylation (OGT‐CDG) presenting developmental delay, hypotonia, intellectual ...
