Abstract BackgroundThe main aims of the study were to investigate the performance of expanded noninvasive prenatal test (expanded NIPT) in screening for common trisomies, sex chromosomal aneuploidies (SCAs), rare autosomal aneuploidies (RATs) and copy number variations (CNVs) and parental willing to taking invasive prenatal diagnosis after expanded NIPT in China.ResultsOf the 24,736 cases, successful follow-up was conducted in 92.2% (411/446) cases. The sensitivity of expanded NIPT test was 98.61%,90.91% and 100% and specificity was 99.91%,99.95% and 99.87% for the detection of trisomies 21, 18 and 13 respectively. Expanded NIPT detected 45, XO, 47, XXX, 47, XXY, XYY syndrome, RATs and CNVs with positive predictive values of 57.39%, 19.61%, 75%, 79.41%, 77.78%, 10% and 56.25% respectively. The women carrying fetuses with T21/T18/T13 underwent invasive prenatal diagnosis and terminated their pregnancies at higher rates than those positive for SCAs, RATs and CNVs.ConclusionsOur study demonstrates that the expanded NIPT detects fetal trisomies 21,18 and 13 with high sensitivity and specificity. The accuracy of detecting SCAs, RATs and CNVs is still relatively poor and needed to be improved. With a positive expanded NIPT result, the women at high risk for common trisomies are more willing to take invasive prenatal diagnosis and terminate their pregnancies.* the first two authors contribute equally to this study.

Abstract Background Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) has been wildly used to screen for common aneuplodies. In recent years, the test has been expanded to detect rare autosomal aneuploidies (RATs) and copy number variations (CNVs). This study was performed to investigate the performance of expanded noninvasive prenatal testing (expanded NIPT) in screening for common trisomies, sex chromosomal aneuploidies (SCAs), rare autosomal aneuploidies (RATs), and copy number variations (CNVs) and parental willingness for invasive prenatal diagnosis in a Chinese prenatal diagnosis center. Methods A total of 24,702 pregnant women were retrospectively analyzed at the Women and Children’s Hospital from January 2013 to April 2019, among which expanded NIPT had been successfully conducted in 24,702 pregnant women. The high-risk expanded NIPT results were validated by karyotype analysis and chromosomal microarray analysis. All the tested pregnant women were followed up for pregnancy outcomes. Results Of the 24,702 cases, successful follow-up was conducted in 98.77% (401/446) of cases with common trisomies and SCAs, 91.95% (80/87) of RAT and CNV cases, and 76.25% (18,429/24,169) of cases with low-risk screening results. The sensitivity of expanded NIPT was 100% (95% confidence interval[CI], 97.38–100%), 96.67%(95%CI, 82.78–99.92%), and 100%(95%CI, 66.37–100.00%), and the specificity was 99.92%(95%CI, 99.87–99.96%), 99.96%(95%CI, 99.91–99.98%), and 99.88% (95%CI, 99.82–99.93%) for the detection of trisomies 21, 18, and 13, respectively. Expanded NIPT detected 45,X, 47,XXX, 47,XXY, XYY syndrome, RATs, and CNVs with positive predictive values of 25.49%, 75%, 94.12%, 76.19%, 6.45%, and 50%, respectively. The women carrying fetuses with Trisomy 21/Trisomy 18/Trisomy 13 underwent invasive prenatal diagnosis and terminated their pregnancies at higher rates than those at high risk for SCAs, RATs, and CNVs. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that the expanded NIPT detects fetal trisomies 21, 18, and 13 with high sensitivity and specificity. The accuracy of detecting SCAs, RATs, and CNVs is still relatively poor and needs to be improved. With a high-risk expanded NIPT result, the women at high risk for common trisomies are more likely to undergo invasive prenatal diagnosis procedures and terminate their pregnancies than those with unusual chromosome abnormalities.

Abstract Background: With the development of whole-genome sequencing, small sub-chromosomal deletions and duplications could be found by non-invasive prenatal testing(NIPT). This study aimed to review the efficiency of NIPT as a screening test for aneuploidies and sub-chromosomal copy number variations (CNVs) in 24359 single pregnancies.Methods: A total of 24359 single pregnancies with different clinical indications were retrospectively analyzed. The positive predictive value （PPV）of chromosome aneuploidies and subchromosomal CNVs were analyzed. Pathogenicity of abnormal NIPT results were assessed according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics(ACMG). Results: A total of 442 pregnancies (442/24359,1.9%) were with abnormal NIPT results. PPV for trisomy 21(T21), trisomy 18 (T18), trisomy 13 (T13), and sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs) was 84.8%, 54.2%, 11.1% an 40.5% respectively. The PPV for sub-chromosomal CNVs was 59.0% (46/78). The PPV for CNVs ≤5 Mb was 68.9% (31/45), for CNVs within 5-10 Mb was 83.3%(5/6) and for CNVs ≥10 Mb was 37.1% (10/27) respectively. The clinical information, prenatal diagnosis results and follow-up results of 46 true positive cases, 6 cases with sub-chromosomal CNVs inconsistent with NIPT and 1 false negative case were also described in detail.Conclusions: Our data have potential significance in demonstrating the significance of NIPT not only for common whole chromosome aneuploidies but also for sub-chromosomal CNVs. Besides, the clinical information, prenatal diagnosis results and follow-up results of 52 cases with sub-chromosomal CNVs and 1 false negative case would provide important guidance for genetic counseling.

Chromosomal Aneuploidies

Non-invasive prenatal testinging (NIPT) is a relatively new method aimed at detecting fetal chromosomal aneuploidies by analyzing extracellular fetoplacental DNA in the blood of a pregnant woman. NIPT has high sensitivity and specificity, and many professional communities now recommend its use as a screening method. Since its introduction into clinical practice in Hong Kong in 2011, NIPT has expanded rapidly around the world. The experience of various countries in organizing non-invasive prenatal testing is described in this article.

The Impact

Objective: To examine trends in the incidence and method of invasive prenatal diagnosis due to the impact of sequential screening and noninvasive prenatal testing. Methods: This is a retrospective review of all pregnancies that have undergone invasive prenatal diagnostic testing between June 2002 and June 2014, divided in 3 periods: period 1 from June 2002 to October 2006, period 2 from November 2006 to December 2011, and period 3 from January 2012 to June 2014. The main outcome measures were trends in the incidence and method of each procedure. Results: There were 88,135 deliveries and 6,080 invasive procedures during the study period. In period 1, 2,755 (8.8%) procedures were carried out, in period 2 2,820 (7.3%), and in period 3 505 (2.5%; p < 0.01). In period 1, there were 1,990 (6.3%) cases of amniocentesis, 1,646 (4.3%) in period 2, and 254 (1.2%) in period 3 (p < 0.01). In addition, in 765 (2.5%) cases, chorionic villus sampling (CVS) was performed in period 1, compared to 1,174 (3.0%) cases in period 2 and 251 (1.3%) cases in period 3 (p < 0.01). Advanced maternal age as the sole indication for invasive procedures decreased significantly over time, while the indication of abnormal serum screening and abnormal ultrasound findings increased (p < 0.01). Conclusion: There was a significant decline in the incidence of invasive prenatal testing over the 12 years of the study. The decrease in amniocentesis was more marked than that in CVS.

Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies

Objective. To assess the diagnostic relevance of incidental prenatal findings of sex chromosome aneuploidies. Methods. We searched with medical subject headings (MeSHs) and keywords in Medline and the Cochrane Library and systematically screened publications on postnatally diagnosed sex chromosomal aneuploidies from 2006 to 2011 as well as publications on incidentally prenatally diagnosed sex chromosomal aneuploidies from 1980 to 2011. Results. Postnatally diagnosed sex chromosomal aneuploidies demonstrated three clinical relevant domains of abnormality: physical (22–100%), behavior (0–56%), and reproductive health (47–100%), while incidentally prenatally diagnosed sex chromosomal aneuploidies demonstrated, respectively, 0–33%, 0–40%, and 0–36%. Conclusion. In the literature incidental prenatal diagnosis of sex chromosomal aneuploidies is associated with normal to mildly affected phenotypes. This contrasts sharply with those of postnatally diagnosed sex chromosomal aneuploidies and highlights the importance of this ascertainment bias towards the prognostic value of diagnosis of fetal sex chromosomal aneuploidies. This observation should be taken into account, especially when considering excluding the sex chromosomes in invasive prenatal testing using Rapid Aneuploidy Detection.
