摘要
To investigate the efficacy and value of optical genome mapping (OGM) in detecting chromosomal structural variations. In a clinical study about high-precision analysis of genomic structural variation for complex genetic diseases, a retrospective study was performed on the cases with karyotyping at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Endocrinology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January to December 2021. Ten cases with abnormal karyotype was detected by OGM. Partial cases were verified by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), SNP array or CNV-seq. Results of ten cases, nine were detected with abnormality by OGM, including unbalanced chromosomal rearrangements (n=3), translocation (n=5) and paracentric inversion (n=1), and the results were in concordance with other standard assays. However, one case with breakpoint and reconnected at centromere has not been detected. In conclusion, ten samples were comprehensively analyzed by karyotyping, FISH, SNP array or CNV-seq, and OGM, and results demonstrated that optical genome mapping as a new technology can not only detect unbalanced rearrangements such as copy number variants as well as balanced translocations and inversions, but more importantly, it can refine breakpoints and orientation of duplicated segments or insertions. So it can contribute to the diagnosis of genetic diseases and prevent birth defect. However, the current technology is not yet capable of detecting breakpoints of balanced structural variations lying within unmapped regions.

Objective To investigate the changes in preterm birth rate,its gestational age distribution,and possible contributors in Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) over the last 25-year period. Methods The clinical data of premature deliveries,both singleton and twins,in PUMCH from January 1,1990 to December 31,2014 were retrospectively analyzed. We counted the number of premature fetuses and assessed the changes of preterm birth rate and its gestational age distribution (including extremely preterm birth,early preterm birth,and late preterm birth) over time. The etiologies (including spontaneous and iatrogenic) of preterm birth were also surveyed. Results The overall preterm birth rate was 7.8% in PUMCH,showing a slightly up-trend in both singletons and twins. Twin prematurity accounted for 23.8% of total preterm births,increased from 15.1% to 28.5%. Preterm births subgrouped by gestational age included 26 cases (0.7%) of extreme prematurity (<28 weeks),1199 cases (33.9%) of early preterm birth (28- 33weeks),and 2310 cases (65.3%) of late preterm birth (34- 36weeks). The gestational age distribution in singletons and twins showed no significant difference(z=0.844,P=0.398). Changes in the proportion of preterm birth before 28 weeks was little,gradually increased in the 28- 33weeks group (from 23.8% to 36.1%) and gradually decreased in the 34- 36weeks group (from 75.5% to 63.3%). Trends of gestational age distribution of singleton and twins were similar to that of the total. Spontaneous preterm labor,preterm premature rupture of membrane,and medically indicated (iatrogenic) preterm birth accounted for 20.2%,38.9%,and 40.9% respectively. There was no difference in singletons and twins(χ=1.071,P=0.301).The proportion of iatrogenic preterm was increased. Common reasons for iatrogenic preterm birth included gestational hypertension,fetal indications (including fetal distress,fetal growth restriction),placenta previa,and pregnancy complicated by heart disease. Conclusions The overall preterm birth rate shows an upward trend in the general hospital as a result of more multifetal gestations and more medically indicated preterm births. Reducing multifetal gestations and effective control of pregnancy complications should be the priorieties in preterm birth intervention.

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>The incidence of autosomal trisomy in livebirths is strongly dependent on maternal age. Special consideration is given to the provision of prenatal screening and cytogenetic testing to women of advanced maternal age (AMA). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of second trimester prenatal screening and amniocentesis for Down syndrome (DS) and compare the trends of choice of screening and amniocentesis among AMA women.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 5404 AMA patients with natural singleton pregnancy were recruited for this prospective study from January 2008 to December 2010. The gestational weeks were from 15 weeks to 20(+6) weeks. The patients referred were grouped into a screening group (2107 cases) and an amniocentesis group (3297 cases) by their own decision. The prevalence of DS was compared between the two groups by chi-square test. Choice rates for each maternal age with trends were compared by regression analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were 18 cases of fetal DS detected in the screening group with a prevalence of 8.54‰ (18/2107). Twenty-five cases of fetal DS were diagnosed in the amniocentesis group with a prevalence of 7.58‰ (25/3297). No statistical difference was observed in the prevalence of DS between the screening and amniocentesis group (P = 0.928). The invasive testing rate for DS in the amniocentesis group was 5.54 times higher than that of the screening group (1/131.88 vs. 1/23.78). With the increase of the maternal age, the choice of amniocentesis increased while the choice of the screening showed an opposite trend. The choice of the AMA women between the screening and amniocentesis was significantly age relevant (P = 0.012).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The second trimester serum screening in combination with maternal age was more effective than maternal age alone to screen for DS. We suggest educating the patients by recommending AMA women be informed of both screening and amniocentesis options.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the association between vitamin D deficiency and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in pregnant Chinese women.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A nested case-control study was conducted. Clinical and biochemical data were analyzed for 200 subjects with GDM and 200 subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The median (interquartile range) serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels were 22.39 (17.67, 29.38) and 25.86 (19.09, 34.88) nmol/L in the GDM and NGT groups, respectively. Rates of 25OHD deficiency or insufficiency were significantly higher in the GDM group than in the NGT group. Subjects with 25OHD levels <25 nmol/L had a 1.8-fold higher risk of GDM compared with subjects with higher vitamin D levels. In the GDM group, serum 25OHD was independently associated with HbA1c and insulin resistance after adjusting for confounding factors. In the NGT group, serum 25OHD was independently associated with fasting plasma glucose and systolic blood pressure after adjusting for maternal age and other confounding factors.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>25OHD insufficiency is very common in Chinese women. Low 25OHD status may be associated with insulin resistance and act as a risk factor for GDM.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the relationship between karyotypes and clinic features of patients with primary amenorrhea.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>G banding was done for 340 patients with primary amenorrhea to facilitate individual chromosome identification, and if specific staining for certain portions of the chromosome was necessary, C banding was used. The clinical data were recorded by physical examination and ultrasound scanning.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Karyotype analysis of the 340 patients revealed that 180 (52.94%) patients had normal female karyotypes and 160 (47.06%) patients had abnormal karyotypes. The abnormal karyotypes included abnormal X chromosome (150 patients), mosaic X-Y chromosome (4 patients), abnormal autosome (5 patients), and X-autosome translocation (1 patient). The main clinical manifestations in patients with primary amenorrhea were primordial or absent uterus (95.9%), invisible secondary sex features (68.8%), little or absent ovary (62.6%), and short stature (30.0%). The incidence of short stature in patients with X chromosome aberration (46%, 69/150) was significangly higher that in patients with 46, XX (9.44%, 17/180) as well as 46, XY (6.67%, 3/45; Chi square = 146.25, P=0.000). All primary amenorrhea patients with deletion or break-point at Xp1 1.1-11.4 were short statures.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>One of the main reasons of primary amenorrhea is choromosome abnormality, especially heterosome abnormality. It implies the need to routinely screen chromosomal anomalies for such patients. There might be relationship between Xp1 1.1-11.4 integrity and height improvement.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effect of elective repeat cesarean section on the maternal and neonatal outcomes.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A retrospective clinic- and hospital-based survey was designed for comparing the maternal and neonatal outcomes of elective repeat cesarean section [RCS group (one previous cesarean section) and MRCS group (two or more previous cesarean sections)] and primary cesarean section (FCS group) at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 1998 to December 2007.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The incidence of repeat cesarean section increased from 1.26% to 7.32%. The mean gestational age at delivery in RCS group (38.1+/-1.8 weeks) and MRCS group (37.3+/-2.5 weeks) were significantly shorter than that in FCS group (38.9+/-2.1 weeks, all P<0.01). The incidence of complication was 33.8% and 33.3% in RCS group and MRCS group respectively, and was significantly higher than that in FCS group (7.9%, P<0.05). Dense adhesion (13.5% vs. 0.4%, OR=7.156, 95% CI: 1.7-30.7, P<0.01) and uterine rupture (1.0% vs. 0, P<0.05) were commoner in RCS group compared with FCS group. Neonatal morbidity was similar among three groups (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Repeat cesarean section is associated with more complicated surgery technique and increased frequency of maternal morbidity. However, the incidence of neonatal morbidity is similar to primary cesarean section.</p>

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Small for gestational age (SGA) infants are associated with a high rate of oligohydramnios, stillbirth and cesarean delivery. Among SGA patients there is a higher risk of neonatal complications, such as polycythemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and hypothermia. Additionally, the SGA infant is prone to suffer from major neurologic sequelae, as well as cardiovascular system disease, in later life. Proper monitoring and therapy during pregnancy are, therefore, of utmost importance. The present study aimed to investigate the influential and prognostic factors of SGA infants.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2001 to June 2007, a total of 55 SGA neonatal infants were included in a study group. All were born at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, with regular formal antenatal examinations. In addition, a total of 122 cases of appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants were born at the same time and were registered into a control group. All cases were singleton pregnancies with detailed information of the maternal age, gravidity, parity, maternal height and weight, complications, uterine height and abdominal circumference, results from transabdominal ultrasonography between 32 - 38 gestational weeks, pregnancy duration, delivery manner, placenta, umbilical cord, and neonatal complications.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Significant differences were observed in placenta weight and neonatal malformations between the study and control groups. Multivariate analysis revealed increased parity, maternal hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroidism history as risk factors. Fetal abdominal circumferences less than 30 and 32 cm at 32 - 38 gestational weeks respectively, as determined by ultrasonography, resulted in a Youden index of 0.62.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>SGA infants were associated with a greater risk of smaller placentas and infant malformations. Increased parity, maternal hyperthyroidism, and a hyperthyroid history were risk factors for SGA infants. Fetal abdominal circumference less than 30 cm at 32 gestational weeks and less than 32 cm at 38 weeks, as determined by ultrasonography, was considered an effective index for SGA.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) types IIIA, B, C, D are a group of autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorders caused by mutations in one of four genes which encode enzyme activities required for the lysosomal degradation of heparan sulfate. MPSIIIA and MPSIIIB involve deficiencies of heparan N-sulfatase (SGSH) and alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAGLU). MPS IIIA and MPS IIIB are more common than MPS IIIC and IIID. The present study aimed to establish two enzyme assay methods for SGSH and NAGLU activities for carrying out postnatal and prenatal diagnosis of MPSIIIA and IIIB by means of SGSH and NAGLU activity assay on plasma, leukocyte, uncultured chorionic villi (CV) and cultured amniotic fluid cells (AF cell) using two newly synthesized substrates. Mutation analysis of SGSH gene was also performed.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two fluorigenic substrate (4-methylumbelliferyl-alpha-D-N-sulphoglucosaminide.Na and 4-methylumbelliferyl-alpha-N-acetylglucosaminide) were used for the assay of SGSH and NAGLU activity. SGSH activity in leukocyte was determined for diagnosis MPSIIIA proband. NAGLU activity was determined in plasma for diagnosis of MPSIIIB proband. Twelve cases with MPS III were enrolled in this study, 4 were female and 8 were male, age 3 - 10 years and were from 10 unrelated families. Eight exons of SGSH gene were amplified by PCR. The mutations of the patients were characterized by direct sequencing of the amplified DNA fragments. Prenatal diagnosis in 3 pregnancies at risk was carried out according to NAGLU activity on uncultured CV at 11th week or on cultured AF cell at 18th week of gestation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The SGSH activities in leukocyte of normal controls were 4.4 - 8.1 nmol/(17 h.mg protein). The NAGLU activity in plasma of normal controls was 33.3 - 62.4 nmol/(4 h.ml). The NAGLU activities were 44.9 - 91.7 nmol/(17 h.mg protein) and 53.2 - 82.2 nmol/(17 h.mg protein) in CV and cultured AF cells respectively. Five cases of MPS IIIB and 7 cases of MPS IIIA were diagnosed. The mutation analysis of SGSH gene showed 6 mutations (G191R, D235N, R377C, E447K, R233X and D219Wfs264X), only one of which (D219Wfs264X) has not been previously reported. Prenatal diagnosis was performed on 3 pregnancies at risk. NAGLU activity of one affected fetus was 1.5 nmol/(17 h.mg protein) in AF cell.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The method using synthesized fluorigenic 4-methylumbelliferyl-substrates were sensitive, rapid and convenient assay of SGSH and NAGLU activity and were reliable for early prenatal diagnosis. Mutation analysis on MPS IIIA patients suggests new possibilities for molecular diagnosis of the disease.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the optimal method of screening for Down's syndrome (DS) with maternal serum mankers.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Screening by maternal serum markers for Down's syndrome was offered to all 2886 pregnant women in Peking Union Medical Hospital during 1996.11-2001.3. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotrophin (free beta-HCG) were used as markers during the first year of pregnancy. Alpha-fetoprotein, free human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) were used as mid pregnancy and first-trimester markers in next three years. Amniocentesis and (CVS) were done in those defined as risk cases.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The detection rate of Down's syndrome by maternal serum markers was 3.8% (11/2886). The proportion of false positive results in group of triple markers (alpha FP, free beta-HCG, PAPP-A) was 5%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The PAPP-A was a good marker to detect Down's syndrome in early pregnancy and may be used to predict the outcome during mid trimester of pregnancy. The AFP and free beta-HCG can be useful markers to detect Down's syndrome and fetal abnormality. While prenatal diagnostics can be shifted to an early pregnant period.</p>
