Objective: To assess the value of quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) for the detection of chromosomal aneuploidies in chorionic villus samples from early abortion.
Methods: One hundred seventy seven specimens were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted, and aneuploidies of 8 chromosomes (13, 15, 16, 18, 21, 22, X and Y) were detected by QF-PCR analysis.
Results: The QF-PCR was successful in 176 (99.4%) of the cases. All detection was completed in 48 hours. Sixty three(35.8%) cases have shown abnormal signals, which included 3 cases of trisomy 13, 3 cases of trisomy 15, 14 cases of trisomy 16, 2 cases of trisomy 18, 7 cases of trisomy 22, 3 cases of trisomy 21, 13 cases of 45,X, 1 case of 47,XXX, 2 cases of 47,XXY, 2 cases of haploidy, 11 cases of triploidy, 1 case of trisomy 16 and trisomy 22, 1 case of trisomy 21 and trisomy 22. Trisomy 16 was the most common chromosome aneuploidy (22.22%), which was followed by 45,X (20.63%), triploidy (17.46%) and trisomy 22 (11.11%).
Conclusion: QF-PCR is a quick and easy method for detecting chromosomal aneuploidies in chorionic villi tissue. The results can provide important information for genetic counseling for spontaneous abortions.

Chromosomal abnormalities of the embryo are the most common cause of first-trimester pregnancy loss. In this single-center study, we assessed the frequency and the spectrum of chromosomal abnormalities in miscarriages for each year of maternal age from 23 to 44. Cytogenetic data were obtained by conventional karyotyping of 7118 miscarriages in women with naturally conceived pregnancies.

Objective: To explore the genetic characteristics of a Chinese pedigree with rare mosaic 11q partial duplication and its pathogenetic mechanisms.
Methods: A pedigree which underwent prenatal diagnosis at Wenzhou Central Hospital between September 25, 2015 and November 30, 2023 was selected for the study. Clinical data were collected from the pedigree.

Objective: To explore the clinical significance of trisomy 7 signaled by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT).
Methods: Pregnant women with high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT from January 2017 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects, and the results of prenatal diagnosis and follow-up were analyzed. Literature related to pregnant women with a high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT from January 2016 to July 2024 was retrieved from China Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and PubMed database.

Single umbilical artery (SUA) is considered an ultrasound marker of anomalies. Although it may be present in about 0.5% to 6% of normal pregnancies, it has been linked with an increased risk of fetal growth restriction (FGR), as well as cardiac, genitourinary and gastrointestinal malformations and chromosomal anomalies such as trisomies 21 and 18.

To assess the prenatal course and early postnatal outcomes of fetuses diagnosed with tricuspid atresia and to identify predictors of survival. This was a retrospective study of 25 fetuses diagnosed with tricuspid atresia in a single tertiary referral center, evaluating prenatal echocardiographic features and postnatal outcomes. A total of 4 of 29 initially diagnosed fetuses were excluded due to changes in diagnosis or loss to follow-up, leaving 25 fetuses for analysis.
