Non-invasive prenatal DNA screening using high-throughput sequencing in pregnant women with recurrent miscarriage
Aim. To investigate the effectiveness of non-invasive prenatal DNA screening (NIPS) for aneuploidy using high-throughput sequencing for the detection of trisomy 21, 18, 13 and fetal sex chromosomes in maternal plasma of women both with and without a history of recurrent pregnancy loss. Material and methods. NIPS using the high-throughput sequencing was carried out and the results obtained from 600 pregnant women with recurrent miscarriage (n=270) and uncomplicated obstetric history (n=330). To confirm chromosomal aneuploidy (CA), karyotyping was used. Results. After 12 weeks of gestation, the frequency of CA in each study group was 3.0% and did not differ between women with recurrent miscarriage and uncomplicated obstetric history. The sensitivity and specificity of NIPS in detecting the most frequent CA was 92% and 99%, respectively. Down syndrome was determined with 100% specificity. Conclusion. The study finding showed that NIPS is accurate in screening for fetal CA from early pregnancy, which is especially important in patients with recurrent miscarriage since it spares them from invasive testing thus preventing iatrogenic complications.Sukhikh G.T., Tetruashvili N.K., Kim L.V., Trofimov D.Yu., Barkov I.Yu., Shubina E.S., Parsadanyan N.G., Fedorova N.I., Goltsov A.Yu.
