With the development of molecular genetic technology, an increasing number of genetic disorders leading to birth defects can now be detected. The lack of the knowledge for the basics and clinical applications of molecular genetic techniques have emerged as a shortcoming for primary care physicians who have formed the first tier prevention for birth defects. Currently, government has paid more attention to the above problems and formulated more training programs for primary obstetricians and gynecologists, e. g., "Prenatal Screening and Prenatal Diagnosis Post Training Program", "National Birth Defects Training Program", "National Primary Obstetrician Training Program". To some extent, such programs have met the urgent need for birth defect prevention in primary hospitals. But at the same time, some problems have also emerged. For instance, the knowledge for birth defects among primary obstetricians and gynecologists is poor, and there is lack of young personnel. This article has aimed to discuss the strategies to systematically improve the ability for preventing birth defects among primary care physicians by analyzing the obstacles and challenges for primary obstetricians and gynecologists in the era of molecular genetic testing.

Methods A pregnant woman with twin pregnancy through in-vitro fertilization and negative result of NIPT-plus was selected as the study subject. Amniocentesis was conducted after ultrasonic finding of fetal abnormalities. In addition to conventional G-banded karyotyping, copy number variation sequencing (CNV-Seq) was used to detect chromosomal microdeletion and microduplication. Clinical data of the woman were analyzed to explore the reasons underlying the false negative result. Results NIPT-plus has yielded a negative result with 11.77 Mb unique reads and 3.05% fetal fraction. Both fetuses had a normal karyotype (46, XY and 46, XX). CNV-seq indicated that one of the fetuses was normal, whilst the other was diagnosed with a 2.58 Mb deletion in the 22q11.2 region. Conclusion The false negative result may be attributed to the combined influence of low fetal fraction, high BMI, twin pregnancy through IVF and a relatively small deletion fragment. Ultrasonography exam following a low-risk result of NIPT-plus should not be neglected.

Methods A pregnant woman presented at the Shengjing Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University on May 11, 2021 was selected as the study subject. Maternal peripheral blood sample was screened by NIPT, and G-banded chromosomal karyotyping was carried out on amniotic fluid and peripheral blood samples from the couple. The fetus and the pregnant woman were also subjected to genomic copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay. Results NIPT result suggested that the fetus had monomeric mosaicism or fragment deletion on chromosome 13. G banded chromosomal analysis showed that both the fetus and its mother had a karyotype of 47, XX, der(13)(pter→p11: : q22→q10), + r(13)(: : p10: : q22→qter: : ), whilst her husband had a normal karyotype. FISH has verified the above results. No abnormality was detected with CNV-seq and CMA in both the fetus and the pregnant woman. Conclusion The ring chromosome 13 in the fetus has derived from its mother without any deletion, duplication and mosaicism. Both the fetus and the pregnant woman were phenotypically normal.

Methods Amniocentesis and chromosomal karyotyping was carried out for a pregnant woman with a high risk for chromosome 2 anomalies indicated by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP array) and trio-whole exome sequencing (Trio-WES) were carried out. Ultrasonography was used to closely monitor the fetal growth. Multifocal sampling of the placenta was performed after delivery for copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq). Results The fetus was found to have a normal chromosomal karyotype. SNP-array has revealed multiple regions with loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 2. Trio-WES confirmed the presence of maternal UPD for chromosome 2. Ultrasonography has revealed intrauterine growth restriction and oligohydramnios. Intrauterine fetal demise had occurred at 23+ 4 weeks of gestation. Pathological examination had failed to find salient visceral abnormality. The placenta was proved to contain complete T2 by CNV-seq. Conclusion T2 CPM can cause false positive result for NIPT and may be complicated with fetal UPD, leading to adverse obstetric outcomes such as intrauterine growth restriction, oligohydramnios and intrauterine fetal demise.

Methods Clinical data of 85 neonates with abnormal C5OH metabolism identified from February 2004 to January 2022 at Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were collected. Their clinical manifestations and results of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and genetic testing were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among the 85 cases, 46 (54.1%) were identified by neonate screening, whilst 39 (45.9%) were clinically diagnosed patients. Five diseases were diagnosed, including 28 cases with multiple carboxylase deficiency (MCD, 32.9%), 29 cases with 3-methylcrotonyl-coenzymeAcarboxylasedeficiency (MCCD, 34.1%), 4 cases with 3-methylglutaconic acid (3-MGA, 4.7%), 7 cases with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid (3-HMG, 8.2%), and 17 cases with beta-ketothiolase deficiency (BKD, 20.0%). The disorders were characterized by sudden onset, anorexia, vomiting, diarrhea, abnormal breathing, consciousness disorder, spasm and developmental delay. Conclusion Among newborns with abnormal C5OH metabolism, MCCD is the most common disorder, which was followed by BKD and MCD. For patients with abnormal C5OH metabolism, MCD is the most common, followed by BKD and 3-HMG. C5OH related diseases have great heterogeneity. Combination of blood acylcarnitine levels, urinary organic acid levels and genetic testing based on clinical characteristics can help to attain the diagnosis.

Methods Clinical data of 90 patients with primary AML and 11q23/KMT2A rearrangements were analyzed retrospectively. Results By karyotyping analysis, 80 of the 90 patients had translocations involving 11q23/KMT2A, with t(9 11)(p22 q23), t(6 11)(q27 q23), t(10 11)(p12 q23) and t(11 19)(q23 p13) being the most common ones, while 10 cases were found to have non-translocation abnormalities. The overall complete remission (CR) rate was 75.6%, and patients with t(6 11) had lower CR rate compared with non-t(6 11) patients (47.1% vs. 82.2%, P=0.005). After a median follow-up of 24.5 months, the patients receiving allo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) had significantly higher 3-year overall survival (OS) (80.3% vs. 16.6%, P<0.001) and 3-year event-free survival (EFS) (73.5%vs. 16.3%, P<0.001) compared with non-transplant patients. Patients with t(6 11) had the lowest 3-year OS (11.8%vs. 56.0%, P<0.001) and 3-year EFS (5.9%vs. 53.8%, P<0.001) compared with other type of abnormalities. No significant difference was noted in the survival between patients with t(9 11) and non-t(9 11) regardless whether they had received HSCT. Conclusion The clinical characteristics of primary AML with 11q23/KMT2A rearrangements are heterogeneous. Patients did not receive HSCT had poorer survival, particularly with the presence of t(6 11). Allo-HSCT could significantly improve the survival of such patients.

Methods Clinical data of 12 patients diagnosed at Ningbo Women and Children′s Hospital between December 2019 and May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The probands and their family members were subjected to high-throughput sequencing, and candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing and chromosome microarray analysis. Results The 12 patients had ranged from 4 months to 27 years old, with a male-to-female ratio of 2 : 1. Cafè-au-lait spots were found in all patients. 83.3% of them also had axillary and/or inguinal freckling, 58.3% had neurofibromas, and 16.7% had congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia. Five types of NF1 gene variants were identified in the patients, including 5 nonsense variants, 4 frameshift variants, 1 missense variant, 1 splice variant, 1 large deletion involving the whole gene. Six patients were found to harbor de novo variants, 2 had inherited the variants from their parents, and 4 were not verified for their parental origin. The c. 3379del (p.Thr1127Glnfs*15) and c. 6628_6629del (p.Glu2210Thrfs*10) variants were unreported in literature and databases. Conclusion Most NF1 patients may present with Cafè-au-lait spots initially and are due to pathogenic variant of the NF1 gene. High-throughput sequencing can efficiently identify such variants among the patients and enable the definite diagnosis.

Methods Clinical data of three fetuses identified at the Women′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine between January 2021 and August 2022 were collected. Umbilical cord blood and amniotic fluid samples of the fetuses and peripheral blood samples of their parents were collected and subjected to G-banded chromosomal karyotyping and single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP array) analysis. Results Prenatal ultrasound of the three fetuses revealed duodenal atresia or stenosis. No karyotypic abnormality was detected, whilst SNP array has identified 1.4 ~ 1.9 Mb duplications at 17q12 in all of them, which were all predicted to be pathogenic copy number variations (CNVs). Conclusion The 17q12 duplications probably underlay the duodenal atresia and stenosis in these fetuses, and chromosomal CNVs should be considered in duodenal atresia and stenosis.

Methods A 18-month-old boy and a 23-month-old girl undergoing alloHSCT for MPS VI and MPS IH Shanghai Children’s Medical Center on March 30, 2006 and September 6, 2006 were selected as the study subjects. A busulfan-based myeloablative regimen was used as the conditioning regimen. Peripheral stem cells were respectively collected from a human leucocyte antigen (HLA) matched sibling carrier donor and a HLA 9/10 matched unrelated donor. Both patients were followed up for more than 15 years. The functions of internal organs before and after the transplantation were compared, and child 1 was also compared with his untreated brother and healthy brother. Results Both children have achieved full donor chimerism after the transplantation, and their enzymatic activities have remained stable. The enzymatic activity of the child 1 was slightly lower than normal but similar to that of his carrier donor, whilst that of the child 2 was normal. Both children have attended schools with good academic performance. Compared with his untreated brother, the respiratory function and hearing of child 1 have significantly improved. However, his orthopedic and cardiac disorders have still remained and required medical intervention. For child 2, her obstructive pulmonary disease was resolved and cognitive development was well preserved after the HSCT. Her heart disease has become stabilized and even improved with time, though her corneal clouding and skeletal malformation still required surgery. Conclusion MPS patients can sustain long-term and stable enzymatic activities after successful alloHSCT. Compared with untreated patients, their health can be significantly improved, along with considerably prolonged survival, though the long-term efficacy of HSCT for different organs may vary to a certain extent.
