Article Synopsis
  • Reciprocal translocation (RT) carriers have a higher risk of infertility, miscarriages, and children with health issues due to the production of unbalanced gametes.
  • Prenatal diagnosis (PND) and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) can help minimize these risks, but there are concerns about the effectiveness of sperm fluorescence in situ hybridization (spermFISH) as a diagnostic tool for RT carriers.
  • A study of 41 RT carriers indicated that acrocentric chromosomes lead to more unbalanced gametes, and the variability in balanced sperm rates suggests that using spermFISH routinely may not be beneficial for these patients.

Introduction: Complex chromosomal rearrangements (CCRs) involve two or more chromosomes and at least three breakpoints. Due to their complexity, they are associated with a high number of unbalanced gametes, whose fertilization is often incompatible with viable fetal development. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is usually offered to those patients and typically shows modest results considering the high number of unbalanced embryos.

Background: Bereaved ICU family surrogates are at risk of comorbid prolonged grief disorder (PGD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and depression. Knowledge about temporal relationships between PGD, PTSD, and depression is limited by a lack of relevant studies and diverse or inappropriate assessment time frames given the duration criterion for PGD. We aimed to determine the temporal reciprocal relationships between PGD, PTSD, and depressive symptoms among ICU decedents' family surrogates during their first 2 bereavement years with an assessment time frame reflecting the PGD duration criterion.

Published data on the relationship between pregnancy outcomes of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) in translocation carriers have implicated inconclusive results. To identify potentially eligible reports, an electronic search was conducted in several databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Knowledge, and Cochrane. Pooled odd ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (Cis) were estimated based on a random-effect model to evaluate the strength of association between PGD and successful pregnancy outcome in translocation carriers.
