Implementation of whole genome massively parallel sequencing for noninvasive prenatal testing in laboratories
Abstract
Noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for fetal aneuploidies using cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma has revolutionized the field of prenatal care and methods using massively parallel sequencing are now being implemented almost worldwide. Substantial progress has been made from initially testing for (an)euploidies of chromosomes 13, 18 and 21, to testing for sex chromosome (an)euploidies, additional autosomal aneuploidies as well as partial deletions and duplications genome-wide. Although NIPT is associated with significantly reduced risks for the fetus in comparison to existing invasive prenatal diagnostic methods, it presents several implementation challenges. Here, we review key issues potentially influencing NIPT and illustrate them using both data from literature and in-house data.

Noninvasive prenatal testing had exceeded ten million tests by 2018 across multiple countries.
“Other examples of the rapid adoption of new genomic technologies include noninvasive prenatal testing (more than ten million tests by 2018 across multiple countries139–141) and the use of recessive carrier panels for couples planning pregnancies.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
