Prenatal diagnosis of Aicardi-Goutières syndrome type 3: report of two pedigrees / 中华围产医学杂志

Two pedigrees are reported here including two siblings and a boy who were diagnosed with Aicardi-Goutières syndrome type 3 (AGS3) caused by compound heterozygous variation of RNASEH2C gene. Prenatal gene diagnosis was performed when their mothers were pregnant again. All three cases presented with epilepsy, microcephaly, muscular hypertonia and severe language, motor and mental retardation. In pedigree 1, genetic analysis showed compound heterozygous variants of c.194G>A (p.Gly65Asp) and c.434G>T (p.Arg145Leu) in the RNASEH2C gene of proband 1 and her younger brother, which were inherited from their mother and father respectively. While in pedigree 2, c.194G>A(p.Gly65Asp) and c.227C>T(p.Pro76Leu) compound heterozygous variants in the RNASEH2C gene were found in proband 2, which were inherited from his father and mother, respectively. Diagnosis of AGS3 was confirmed in these three cases based on their medical history and the testing results. The mothers from the two families underwent prenatal diagnosis in their subsequent pregnancy, and the variation only inherited from the mothers was detected, suggesting that the two fetuses are carriers. Both families chose to continue the pregnancy and delivered at full-term. No growth or development abnormalities were reported in the children during a one-year follow-up.

Objective:To investigate the current status of the radiodiagnosis and radiotherapy resources and medical exposure frequencies in Huai′an City.Methods:According to the monitoring data in the " Radiological Health Information Management Platform of Jiangsu Province" in 2020, a descriptive analysis was conducted on the personnel, equipment, and exposure frequencies in the institutes engaged in radiation-based diagnosis and treatment in Huai′an.Results:A total of 181 hospitals were investigated in 2020, including 7 tertiary hospitals(3.9%), 24 secondary hospitals(13.3%), 126 primary hospitals(69.6%), and 24 ungraded hospitals(13.3%). There were 1 397 radiation workers, including 948 males and 449 females, and 459 pieces of radiation equipment, including 420 for radio diagnosis, 13 for radiotherapy, 4 for nuclear medicine, and 22 for interventional radiology. The hospitals of different grades greatly differed in the number of radiation workers and equipment. There were 80.1, 20.9, 2.2, and 2.0 radiation workers and 15.7, 5.5, 1.4, and 1.6 pieces of radiation equipment in the tertiary hospitals, secondary hospitals, primary hospitals, and ungraded hospitals, respectively on average. There were 2 903 246, 27 648, 8 087, and 17 874 receiving radiodiagnosis, radiotherapy, nuclear medicine, and interventional radiology, respectively in 2020. The medical exposure frequencies in the whole city were calculated to be 599.50 per 1 000 population, including 334.59 treated with conventional X-rays, 239.82 receiving CT scan, 14.18 for breast and dentistry, 3.62 receiving interventional radiology, 5.61 treated with radiotherapy, and 1.69 receiving nuclear medicine.Conclusions:The radiodiagnosis and radiotherapy resources are unbalanced in the hospitals of different grades in Huai′an City. Therefore, it is necessary to pay more attention to the reasonable allocation of medical resources. Meanwhile, radiation workers in secondary hospitals may be more prone to job burnout. Facing the normalization of the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic, the supervision and management of radiological health should be strengthened to ensure the legitimacy of radiological diagnosis and radiotherapy and theoptimization of protection. The frequencies of medical exposure are consistent with the local economic level. To analyze the differences in medical exposure frequencies and predict the developmental trends in different regions, it is necessary to establish a more accurate prediction model.

Genetic diagnosis for fetal Bardet-Biedl syndrome caused by BBS7 gene mutations: report of two cases / 中华围产医学杂志

Objective:To summarize the genetic diagnosis of two fetuses with clinically suspected Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) and to provide information for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis of BBS.Methods:Case one had prenatal care on October 2018 in Shenzhen Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital and was clinically suspected of fetal BBS as bilateral renal parenchyma echo enhancement as well as polydactyly (six toes on each foot) were shown on ultrasonic examination at 18 +1 gestational weeks. Case two was another suspected fetal BBS for enlarged kidneys with echo enhancement as well as polydactyly (six fingers and toes on each hand and foot) on ultrasonic examination at 26 +4 gestational weeks on August 2016 and the parent requested for termination. Parents of both cases requested for genetic analysis. Amniotic fluid sample was obtained in case one at 19 +6 weeks through amniocentesis, and umbilical cord specimen of case two and peripheral blood samples of the parents were collected. Genetic analysis of the fetuses and their parents was performed using exon capture and next-generation sequencing and the results were validated using Sanger sequencing. Results:Case one carried paternally inherited c.718G>A (p.Gly240Ser) (possible pathogenic) mutation and maternally inherited c.497C>A(p.Ala166Asp) (possible pathogenic) mutation in BBS7 gene. While one paternally inherited mutation c.1002delT(p.N335Ifs*47) (pathogenic) and one maternally inherited heterozygous mutation c.728G>A (p.Cys243Tyr) (possible pathogenic) were identified in BBS7 gene of case two. The three unreported missense mutations were predicted to be harmful by bioinformatics software and the mutation sites were conservative after comparing with multiple species-based protein sequences. Conclusions:Enlarged kidneys with echo enhancement and polydactyly may indicated a BBS fetus caused by BBS7 gene mutation. Whole exome sequencing could provide relevant information for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling in these cases.

Dose accuracy research on air cavity interface in treatment planning system / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

Objective To study the accuracy of collapsed cone convolution ( CCC) and anisotropic analytical algorithm ( AAA) in dosimetric calculation on the air cavity interface. Methods A BEAMnrc/EGSnrc Monte Carlo ( MC ) simulation was performed on a Varian Trilogy linear accelerator. The IBA Dosimetry “blue phantom” 3D scanning system was used to verify the accuracy and reliability of the MC simulation. Central axis depth dose distribution and lateral dose profile in a water?equivalent phantom with variously sized air cavities were calculated by CCC and AAA. The obtained depth dose distribution and lateral dose profile were compared with those by MC simulation and EBT2 film, respectively. Results Both CCC and AAA overestimated the dose on the air cavity interface. In spite of some errors, CCC had a higher accuracy than AAA. The errors were mainly related to computational grid, field size, photon energy, cavity size, and the number of fields. Conclusion Electronic disequilibrium on the air cavity interface should be taken into account when CCC and AAA are used for dosimetric calculation in treatment planning system.
