Objective

To investigate the analysis and abnormalities of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) results in a large sample of pregnant women.

Methods

A total of 22 908 pregnant women who underwent NIPT in Guiyang Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020 were selected as research subjects. Further prenatal diagnosis by amniocentesis for karyotype analysis was performed on those with high risk of NIPT results. The age, NIPT indication, prenatal diagnosis results and other clinical data of all pregnant women were retrospectively collected. The procedure followed in this study was in accordance with the regulations of the Ethics Committee of Guiyang Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital, and was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee (Approval No.2021-56).

Results

①Among 22 908 pregnant women, NIPT indications included: 7 286 cases (31.81%) of pregnant women with advanced age (≥35 years old at expected date of delivery), 2 491 cases (10.87%) with abnormal serological screening results, 610 cases (2.66%) received NIPT due to missed serological screening, 563 cases (2.46%) with other NIPT indications (poor pregnancy and labor history, choroids from cysts in fetal ultrasound, termination of one of the twins, etc.), and 11 958 cases (52.20%) volunteered for NIPT without NIPT indication. ②Among 22 908 pregnant women, 363 cases (1.58%) were with high risk of NIPT, including 72 cases (0.31%) of high risk of fetal 21-trisomy syndrome (TS), 20 cases (0.09%) of fetal 18-TS, 10 cases (0.04%) of 13-TS, 131 cases (0.57%) of sex chromosome aneuploidy (SCA) and 130 cases (0.57%) of other chromosomal abnormalities, respectively, accounting for 19.83% (72/363), 5.51% (20/363), 2.75% (10/363), 36.09% (131/363) and 35.81% (130/363) of the high risk of NIPT. ③Among 363 cases with high risk of NIPT, 298 cases (82.09%) received amniocentesis chromosome karyotype analysis. There were 186 cases (62.42%) with prenatal diagnosis results consistent with NIPT results. The diagnostic rate of NIPT screening for fetal 21-TS, 18-TS, 13-TS, SCA and other chromosomal abnormalities was 93.06% (67/72), 90.00% (18/20), 88.89% (8/9), 55.56% (70/126) and 32.40% (23/71), respectively. Among the pregnant women with confirmed fetal 21-TS and SCA, pregnant women with advanced age accounted for 71.64% (48/67) and 55.71% (39/70), respectively.

Conclusions

Fetal SCA, other chromosomal abnormalities and 21-TS are the main risk factors of NIPT in pregnant women in this study. The advanced age of pregnant women is an important factor affecting the high risk of fetal 21-TS and SCA. The accuracy of NIPT results is related to the types of chromosomal abnormalities.
