HbBarts hydrops fetalis (\u2014SEA\/\u2014SEA) is diagnosed by absence of both markers, and maternal contamination of fetal DNA is excluded by absence of noninherited maternal alleles. Fetal and parental DNA samples from 50 families were analyzed in a blinded clinical validation study, and QF-PCR results were compared with their respective molecular genotypes.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Results: The multiplex QF-PCR results included correct diagnoses of HbBarts hydrops fetalis in 11 of the fetuses tested, correct verification as unaffected in 20 fetuses, and correct identification as either carriers (\u03b1\u03b1\/\u2014SEA) or unaffected homozygotes in 18. Misidentification as unaffected occurred for 1 carrier. Sensitivity for diagnosis of HbBarts hydrops fetalis was 100% [lower 95% confidence interval, 76.2%], and specificity was 100% (lower 95% confidence interval, 92.6%). None of the samples tested showed any traces of noninherited maternal alleles; thus false-positives because of maternal contamination were eliminated.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Conclusions: In this QF-PCR method, detection of maternally and paternally inherited fetal alleles allowed diagnosis of the double-deletion syndrome, and the ability to differentiate between these alleles allowed simultaneous exclusion of maternal contamination of the fetal genetic material. This novel strategy using cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma could form the basis for noninvasive testing for HbBarts hydrops fetalis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1373\/clinchem.2006.075085","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,8]],"date-time":"2006-12-08T01:34:32Z","timestamp":1165541672000},"page":"173-179","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Microsatellite Markers within \u2014SEA Breakpoints for Prenatal Diagnosis of HbBarts Hydrops Fetalis"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"53","author":[{"given":"Sherry Sze Yee","family":"Ho","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Samuel S","family":"Chong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Paediatrics, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"},{"name":"Molecular Diagnosis Centre, National University Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Evelyn SC","family":"Koay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Pathology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"},{"name":"Molecular Diagnosis Centre, National University Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yiong Huak","family":"Chan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Biostatistic Unit, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ponnusamy","family":"Sukumar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lily-Lily","family":"Chiu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Diagnosis Centre, National University Hospital, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wen","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Paediatrics, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ashim","family":"Roy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mary","family":"Rauff","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lin Lin","family":"Su","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arijit","family":"Biswas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mahesh","family":"Choolani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020022802413333700_R1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Higgs DR, Vickers MA, Wilkie AO, Pretorius IM, Jarman AP, Weatherall DJ.
