The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of unbalanced chromosome rearrangement in blastocyst-stage embryos from carriers of pericentric inversion of chromosome 1 (PEI-1). A total of 98 embryos from 22 PEI-1 carriers were tested for unbalanced rearrangements, originating from inversion carriers, and overall aneuploidy. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the ratio of inverted segment size to chromosome length was a statistically significant risk factor for unbalanced chromosome rearrangement from PEI-1 carriers ( = 0.003). The optimal cut-off values to predict the risk of unbalanced chromosome rearrangement was 36%, with the incidence being 2.0% in the <36% group and 32.7% in the ≥36% group. The unbalanced embryo rate was 24.4% in male carriers compared to 12.3% in female carriers. Inter-chromosomal effect analysis was performed using 98 blastocysts from PEI-1 carriers and 116 blastocysts from age-matched controls. PEI-1 carriers had similar sporadic aneuploidy rates compared to those of age-matched controls at 32.7 vs. 31.9%, respectively. In conclusion, the risk of unbalanced chromosome rearrangement is affected by inverted segment size in PEI-1 carriers.

Background: Structural variation (SV), defined as balanced and unbalanced chromosomal rearrangements >1 kb, is a major contributor to germline and neoplastic disease. Large variants have historically been evaluated by chromosome analysis and now are commonly recognized by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). The increasing application of genome sequencing (GS) in the clinic and the relatively high incidence of chromosomal abnormalities in sick newborns and children highlights the need for accurate SV interpretation and reporting.

Background: Mate-pair sequencing detects both balanced and unbalanced structural variants (SVs) and simultaneously informs in relation to both genomic location and orientation of SVs for enhanced variant classification and clinical interpretation, while chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) only reports deletion/duplication. Herein, we evaluated its diagnostic utility in a prospective back-to-back prenatal comparative study with CMA.
Methods: From October 2021 to September 2023, 426 fetuses with ultrasound anomalies were prospectively recruited for mate-pair sequencing and CMA in parallel for prenatal genetic diagnosis.

Background: Preimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangements (PGT-SR) has been widely utilized to select euploid embryos in patients carrying balanced chromosomal rearrangements (BCRs) by chromosome copy number analysis. However, reliable and extensively validated PGT-SR methods for selecting embryos without BCRs in large-cohort studies are lacking.
Methods: In this prospective, multicenter, cohort study, carriers with BCRs undergoing PGT-SR were recruited across 12 academic fertility centers within China.

Article Synopsis
- Partial 17q duplication is a rare chromosome abnormality linked to severe developmental issues, intellectual disabilities, and physical anomalies.
- A case study presented a 7-year-old boy with several health problems, including developmental delays and malformations, and his aborted older brother also exhibited similar abnormalities.
- The findings provide insights into the clinical characteristics and fetal implications of 17q25 microduplication related to a maternal genetic translocation.
