Combining newborn metabolic and DNA analysis for second-tier testing of methylmalonic acidemia [PDF]
Improved second-tier tools are needed to reduce false-positive outcomes in newborn screening (NBS) for inborn metabolic disorders on the Recommended Universal Screening Panel (RUSP).We designed an assay for multiplex sequencing of 72 metabolic genes (RUSPseq) from newborn dried blood spots. Analytical and clinical performance was evaluated in 60 screen-

Improving Lyme disease testing with data driven test design in pediatrics
Diagnostic advances have not kept pace with the expansion of Lyme disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and transmitted by ticks. Lyme disease clinical manifestations can overlap with many other diagnoses making Lyme disease a critical part of many ...

Incorporation of Second-Tier Biomarker Testing Improves the Specificity of Newborn Screening for Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I [PDF]
Enzyme-based newborn screening for Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) has a high false-positive rate due to the prevalence of pseudodeficiency alleles, often resulting in unnecessary and costly follow up. The glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), dermatan sulfate (DS) and heparan sulfate (HS) are both substrates for α-l-iduronidase (IDUA).

Background Electronic fetal monitoring alone is a poor screening test for detecting fetuses at risk of acidemia or asphyxia. We aimed to evaluation of predictive ability of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) 3-tier fetal

Racially equitable diagnosis of cystic fibrosis using next-generation DNA sequencing: a case report
Background Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the most prevalent autosomal recessive inherited disease in Caucasians. Rates of CF were thought to be negligible in non-Caucasians but growing epidemiological evidence shows CF is more common in Indian, African,

Screening for Methylmalonic and Propionic Acidemia: Clinical Outcomes and Follow-Up Recommendations
Wisconsin’s newborn screening program implemented second-tier testing on specimens with elevated propionylcarnitine (C3) to aid in the identification of newborns with propionic and methylmalonic acidemias.

Moonlighting newborn screening markers: the incidental discovery of a second-tier test for Pompe disease [PDF]
To describe a novel biochemical marker in dried blood spots suitable to improve the specificity of newborn screening for Pompe disease.The new marker is a ratio calculated between the creatine/creatinine (Cre/Crn) ratio as the numerator and the activity of acid α-glucosidase (GAA) as the denominator.
