We report the world's first clinical pregnancy resulting fromDNA-based enrichment for X-bearing human spermatozoa, for preventionof X-linked hydrocephalus. Sperm separation was followed byembryo biopsy and nested multiplex polymerase chain reaction(PCR) for gender determination. Enriched populations of X-bearingspermatozoa ranging from 80 to 89% pure as determined by fluorescencein-situ hybridization (FISH) resulted in in-vitro fertilization(IVF) rates indistinguishable from normal IVF procedures (65%).In two separate biopsy procedures, 7/9 and 15/16 of the resultingembryos were determined to be female by multiplex PCR. Embryotransfer resulted in a karyotypically normal female fetus. Thistechnique should be widely applicable to gender selection forthe prevention of genetic disorders. 相似文献

In-utero assessment of the internal female genitalia is important for determination of fetal gender in fetuses with suspected genital tract anomalies. We therefore measured fetal uterine transverse width and circumference from 19 weeks of gestation until term, using transvaginal and transabdominal high-resolution ultrasound techniques in order to establish nomograms. A prospective, cross-sectional study on 180 normal singleton pregnancies was performed. Data were obtained for 140 normal fetuses. The mean +/- SD uterine width and circumference were 12.9 +/- 4.1 mm (95% confidence interval 12.1-13.7), and 40.2 +/- 12.5 mm (95% confidence interval 37.9-42.5) respectively. Uterine size as a function of gestational age was expressed by the regression equations: uterine width (mm) = 12.9 + 0.7 x gestational age (weeks), and uterine circumference (mm) = 40.2 + 2.1 x gestational age. The correlation coefficients, r = 0.885 and r = 0.888, for uterine width and circumference, by gestational age respectively, were highly statistically significant (P < 0.001). A nomogram of uterine width and circumference per gestational week, and the 95% prediction limits were defined. The present data offer baseline measurements of the fetal uterus that may allow intrauterine assessment of the female genital tract and associated fetal gender. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The current methods using sonographic parameters and/or maternal serum beta-HCG levels to predict spontaneous abortion are not satisfactory. The aim of this study was to determine whether maternal plasma fetal DNA and total DNA levels could be used to predict spontaneous abortion. METHODS: We prospectively studied pregnant women who presented with vaginal bleeding in the first trimester of pregnancy, and those who had no vaginal bleeding (controls). DYS14 and the beta-globin gene were used to measure the maternal plasma levels of fetal and total DNA, respectively, by real-time PCR. RESULTS: A total of 1114 women were studied. Both maternal plasma fetal and total DNA concentrations increased with gestation from 6 to 11.6 weeks in the controls. The multiple of medians (MoMs) of fetal and total DNA concentration in those who miscarried were significantly greater (P < 0.001) than in the normal controls by about 5- and 4-fold respectively. Using a cut-off value of 1.6 MoMs for total DNA to predict spontaneous abortion, the sensitivity was 98.2% and false positive rate was 4.7%. However, using a cut-off value of 1.8 MoMs for fetal DNA, the corresponding figures were 97% and 44.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Both maternal plasma fetal and total DNA concentrations increased throughout the first trimester. Significantly high levels of fetal and total DNA were found in those who miscarried. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Cigarette smoking (CS) is a widely recognized health hazard, yet it remains prevalent in society and the effects of environmental tobacco smoke exposure on fertility are unknown. Our objective was to measure the effects of CS on the fertility of mainstream (MS) or sidestream (SS) smoke-exposed women compared to their non-smoking (NS) counterparts. METHODS: This retrospective study investigated 225 female patients undergoing IVF (n = 97) or ICSI (n = 128). Patients were grouped based on their smoking status for comparison. This included: 39 MS (18 IVF and 21 ICSI); 40 SS (16 IVF and 24 ICSI); and 146 NS (63 IVF and 83 ICSI) women. Fertility treatment outcomes including embryo quality, implantation and pregnancy rate were measured. RESULTS: No difference in embryo quality between the three groups was observed. However, there was a significant difference in implantation rate (MS = 12.0%, SS = 12.6%, and NS = 25.0%) and pregnancy rate (MS = 19.4%, SS = 20.0%, and NS = 48.3%) per embryo transfer. CONCLUSIONS: Despite similar embryo quality there was a striking difference in implantation and pregnancy rates of MS and SS smokers when compared with NS. Our data demonstrate that the effects of SS smoking are equally as damaging as MS smoke on fertility. 相似文献

Delivery of a severely anaemic fetus after partial molar pregnancy: clinical and ultrasonographic findings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The incidence of a normal live fetus and a partial molar placenta is extremely rare. Although triploidy is the most frequent association, a fetus with normal karyotype can survive in cases of partial molar pregnancy. We report a case of partial molar placenta in which a live female baby was delivered at 32 weeks gestation by a 30-year-old woman. At the 18th week, ultrasonographic examination revealed a normal fetus with a huge, multicystic placenta. Chromosomal evaluation by amniocentesis revealed a normal female karyotype (46,XX), and serial biometric measurement of the fetus showed normal growth during pregnancy. There were no obstetric complications until the 32nd gestational week when preterm rupture of the membranes occurred. The electronic fetal heart beat tracing showed a repeated sinusoid pattern and late deceleration after admission. The patient underwent emergency Caesarean section and delivered a 1551-g, anaemic female baby with an Apgar score of 1, 4 and 6 at 1, 5 and 10 min, respectively. The baby recovered within 2 weeks after respiratory support and transfusion of packed red blood cells. Although anaemia is one of the risk factors that jeopardize the fetus in the case of partial molar pregnancy, termination is not indicated when the fetus is normal and no complications have occurred. 相似文献

This study aims at observing and comparing the antigen expression of some fetal T- and B-lymphocyte subpopulations in Rh-isoimmunization, which determines anemic hypoxia in the fetus, and nonimmune fetal hydrops (NIFH) which, even if there are some etiological factors involved, causes hipoxic hypoxia in the fetus. Twelve fetuses were studied by way of 30 fetal blood samples obtained by ultrasound-guided cordocentesis between the 20th and 36th gestational week. Twenty-four blood samples in all where taken from the eight fetuses with Rh-isoimmunization. Six blood samples were obtained from the four fetuses with NIFH. The lymphocyte phenotypes studied by monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry were the following: CD3, CD4, CD8, expression of T-lymphocyte subpopulations; BsIg, CD19, expression of B-lymphocyte subpopulations. We observed a near-normal maturation process in fetuses with Rh isoimmunization, whereas in fetuses with NIFH we observed inhibition and/or delayed expression of T-lymphocytes. An early and increased B-lymphocyte activation marked a cooperation between the two systems in the early gestational periods. 相似文献

The non-invasive technique to determine fetal RHD status opens the opportunity to change the antenatal screening and Rh-prophylaxis programs. During the period September 2009 to December 2011, we performed a study in the Stockholm area with approximately 27000 pregnancies per year. The study included routine cell free fetal DNA (cffDNA) RHD genotyping in early pregnancy followed by targeted RAADP in gestational week 29 to all RhD negative pregnant women carrying an RHD positive fetus. The new approach in our strategy, compared to previous studies, was that fetal RHD screening was done in early pregnancy at the first antenatal visit and based on a single-exon 4 assay. The implementation of this new screening program in a routine clinical setting is described. The final results of the study are still under analysis. The conclusion until now is that fetal RHD screening in early pregnancy is feasible and accurate with a high sensitivity and specificity, provided samples before gestational week eight were excluded. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the timing and amount of caffeine intake by women and men undergoing IVF and gamete intra-Fallopian transfer (GIFT) on oocyte retrieval, sperm parameters, fertilization, multiple gestations, miscarriage, and live births. METHODS: A prospective study of 221 couples was conducted in Southern California between 1993 and 1998. "Usual" caffeine intake during lifetime and 1 year prior to attempt, caffeine intake during the week of the initial clinic visit, as well as intake during the week of the procedure, was evaluated from beverages (coffee, soda, tea) and chocolates. RESULTS: Not achieving a live birth was significantly associated with "usual" female caffeine consumption [adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals): 3.1 (1.1, 9.7) and 3.9 (1.3, 11.6) for intake of >2-50 and 50 mg/day, compared with 0-2 mg/day] and consumption during the week of the initial visit [2.9 (1.1, 7.5) and 3.8 (1.4, 10.7)] female compared with 0-2 mg/day, although caffeine use was low. Infant gestational age decreased by 3.8 (-6.9, -0.7) or 3.5 (-6.7, -0.3) weeks for women who consumed >50 mg/day of caffeine "usually" or during the week of the initial visit. The odds of having multiple gestations increased by 2.2 (1.1, 4.4) and 3.0 (1.2, 7.4) for men who increased their "usual" intake or intake during the week of the initial visit by an extra 100 mg/day. Caffeine intake was not significantly associated with other outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first IVF/GIFT study to report any effect of caffeine on live births, gestational age, and multiple gestations. If these findings are replicated, caffeine use should be minimized prior to and while undergoing IVF/GIFT. 相似文献

PROBLEM: How does the placental transport of immunoglobulin G (IgG) vary with gestational age? METHOD OF STUDY: MEDLINE was searched for the appearance of “pregnancy” and “IgG” in the title or abstract from 1966 up to 1995. All publications were reviewed for any kind of IgG data from the fetus and the mother and “known” gestational age. In total, 96 publications from the MEDLINE search fulfilled the search criteria. Seven of ninety-six publications contained IgG and gestational age data from the fetus and/or the mother. Five other publications that fulfilled the same criteria were also available and were also included. RESULTS: Fetal serum IgG concentrations were found to increase with gestational age according to the formula: fetal IgG = 13.564 ? 1.094* gestational age (GA) + 0.026* GA2 (R2 = 0.877). The fetomaternal (f/m) ratio was also found to increase with gestational age according to the formula: f/m IgG = 0.399 ? 0.059* GA + 0.003* GA2 ? 2.065* 10—5* GA3 (R2 = 0.831). CONCLUSIONS: The fetal IgG concentrations exceed maternal IgG concentrations after the 35th week of pregnancy. The fetal IgG concentrations are extremely low in the beginning of pregnancy, they exceed 2.5 g/L at >25 pregnancy weeks, and they reach 5 g/L at pregnancy week 30. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of a vanishing twin on the risk of being small-for-gestational age (SGA) in in vitro fertilization (IVF) singletons. METHODS: The study included 642 survivors of a vanished co-twin, 5237 primary singletons and 3678 primary twins. The survivor cohort was subdivided according to gestational age at the time of vanishing to give groups of early (<8 weeks), intermediate (8-22 weeks) and late (>22 weeks) survivors. RESULTS: The rate of SGA infants was significantly higher in survivors than in singletons (OR: 1.50, 95%CI: 1.03-2.20) and a significant inverse correlation was observed between SGA and the gestational age at the time of vanishing (r = -0.10, P < 0.02). Also in term infants, the risk of birthweight <2500 g was higher in survivors than in singletons (OR: 1.71, 95%CI: 1.06-2.74). A similar increase in the rate of low birthweight in term survivors was seen with increasing gestational age at the time of vanishing (r = -0.12; P < 0.01). In multiple logistic regression analysis adjusting for maternal age, parity, child gender and pre-eclampsia, the vanishing of a co-twin (OR: 1.56, 95%CI: 1.06-2.27) and gestational age at the time of vanishing (OR: 2.08, 95%CI: 1.00-4.35) were the only significant predictors of being SGA. CONCLUSIONS: IVF singletons with a vanished co-twin had a higher rate of SGA than singletons from a single gestation and the risk of SGA is increased with increasing gestational age at the time of vanishing. 相似文献

Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and unconjugated estriol (uE3) are used in combination with maternal age to calculate the risk for Down syndrome (DS) in pregnancy. Increased levels of hCG and decreased levels of MSAFP and uE3 are consistent with an increased risk for DS. We retrospectively evaluated second-trimester maternal serum marker levels in a large cohort of patients with known normal outcomes and documented fetal gender. These included 15,428 patients who had MSAFP measurements, 11,428 patients with both MSAFP and hCG, and 6,090 patients with all three markers including uE3. MSAFP levels in patients with female fetuses were consistently lower than those with males. Conversely, hCG was higher in pregnancies with females as compared to males. No gender-related difference was noted for uE3. These results would suggest that the computed DS risk for female fetuses is higher than for males, despite the fact that the incidence of DS is similar in both genders. This information could be useful for calculating gender-specific DS risk; however, this would require ultrasonographic determination of fetal sex. Am. J. Med.

The birth of 12 healthy infants to fathers with non-mosaic Klinefelter's syndrome has been reported so far. The spermatozoa for these pregnancies was obtained from frozen-thawed ejaculate in one pregnancy (twins) and from the testis in the remaining 10 infants. All of them had a normal karyotype. We describe a patient with non-mosaic Klinefelter's syndrome from whom a testicular biopsy was obtained and motile spermatozoa were collected. Of 16 oocytes that were injected, 14 fertilized and cleaved. Three embryos were transferred, resulting in a triplet pregnancy. Karyotype analysis from chorionic villous sampling revealed 46,XX, 46,XY and 46,XXY from the three fetuses. The affected 46,XXY fetus was reduced on the 14th gestational week. The pregnancy culminated with the birth of a healthy male and female, on the 36th gestational week, weighing 3600 and 2660 g respectively. This case report proves the presence of hyperploid spermatozoa in the seminiferous lumen, and strengthens the necessity of genetic diagnosis of the embryos or fetuses in such pregnancies to fathers with non-mosaic Klinefelter's syndrome. 相似文献

We report on dizygotic (DZ) twins, conceived by IVF and ICSI with assisted hatching, who each had a mixture of 46,XX and 46,XY cells in blood lymphocytes. The female twin had mild genitalia abnormalities but further study revealed anatomically normal reproductive anatomy. Chromosome and fluorescence in situ hybridization studies of buccal, skin and ovarian tissue were normal, as were buccal tissue DNA studies. Fetal ultrasound and fetal membrane pathology were consistent with a monochorionic, diamniotic placenta (MCDAP). These twins thus have blood chimerism but are not chimeric in the other tissues studied. The mechanism for the chimerism could be due to either placental vascular anastamoses (after the development of the haematoblast stem cells) or due to an admixture of trophoblast cells during early blastocyst development. Such trophoblast cell admixtures would be restricted to the extraembryonic tissues so that general physical development in the fetus is normal and without somatic cell chimerism. This case in combination with others previously reported suggests that in IVF conceptions, the prevalence of blood chimerism associated with twinning, and the occurrence of DZ twinning associated with MCDAP, may be higher than previously thought. 相似文献

Clinical applications of fetal sex determination in maternal blood in a preimplantation genetic diagnosis centre 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

BACKGROUND: Couples with a risk of transmitting X-linked diseases who are included in a preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) programme need early and rapid fetal sex determination in two situations. The first situation is for the control of embryo sexing after PGD and the second situation is for those couples having a spontaneous pregnancy before the start of their PGD cycle. Among invasive techniques, chorionic villus sampling is the earliest procedure for fetal sex determination and molecular analysis of X-linked genetic disorders during the first trimester but it is associated with a risk of fetal loss. Non-invasive procedures such as ultrasound examination allow reliable fetal sex determination only during the second trimester. Reliable fetal sex determination can now be realised by using SRY gene amplification in maternal blood. METHODS AND RESULTS: We report the use of fetal sex determination from maternal serum as a diagnostic tool for the control of embryo sexing (two cases) and to manage spontaneous pregnancies in couples included in a PGD programme for X-linked diseases (five cases). Fetal sex determination using SRY gene amplification in maternal serum were in complete concordance with fetal sex observed by cytogenetic analysis or ultrasound examination and at birth. This novel strategy allowed the PGD results to be controlled precociously and avoided the performance of invasive procedures in four cases of female fetus. CONCLUSIONS: This rapid fetal sex determination during the first trimester provides advantages to both clinicians and patients in a PGD centre. 相似文献
