ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the genetic etiology of fetal conotruncal heart defects (CTDs) and to evaluate the performance of copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and whole exome sequencing (WES) in identifying the genetic etiology.Methods:This retrospective study involved 196 fetuses diagnosed with CTDs by fetal echocardiography in Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2017 to December 2021. CNV-seq was performed to screen for chromosomal abnormalities [aneuploidy and copy number variations (CNVs)] in the fetuses and their parents, and then WES was performed if CNV-seq was negative. The diagnostic yields of genetic abnormalities [aneuploidy+CNVs+single nucleotide variations (SNVs)] for different types of CTDs were compared using Chi-square test. Results:CNV-seq revealed 54 cases (27.6%, 54/196) with chromosomal abnormalities, including 14 (7.1%, 14/196) aneuploidies, 39 (19.9%, 39/196) CNVs and one aneuploidy complicated by CNVs. Together with another 13 fetuses with pathogenic or likely pathogenic SNVs detected by WES among the rest 142 cases whose CNV-seq results were negative, the total detection rate of genetic abnormalities was 34.2% (67/196). WES increased the diagnostic yield for CTDs by 9.2% (13/142). There was significant difference in the diagnostic yields for different types of CTDs ( χ2=20.31, P=0.002). The diagnostic yield was relatively high for interrupted aortic arch of type B, absent of the pulmonary valve -type of tetralogy of Fallot (9/10 and 8/12), but low for transposition of the great arteries (12.5%, 5/40). Conclusions:CNVs are the common genetic abnormalities in fetal CTDs, and SNVs are also detected in some cases. It is recommended that all fetuses with CTDs should undergo genetic testing. CNV-seq should be used in combination with WES if possible to improve the identification of genetic etiology and provide reference for genetic counseling.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To summarize the clinical features and spectrum of genetic variants in 12 patients with Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS), and to explore the correlation between the type of genetic variants and clinical phenotypes.@*METHODS@#Twelve patients suspected for LDS at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2015 to January 2022 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data of the patients were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples and subjected to genetic testing. Pathogenicity of candidate variants was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The clinical phenotypes of the 12 patients have mainly included cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, craniofacial, skin, ocular and other systemic signs. Four patients (patients 5-1, 5-2, 6, 7) have carried heterozygous missense variants of the TGFBR1 gene, 5 patients (patients 1-1, 1-2, 2, 3, 4) have carried heterozygous variants of the TGFBR2 gene, and 2 patients (patients 8-1, 8-2) had carried heterozygous frameshift variants of the TGFB3 gene. One patient (patient 9) had carried a heterozygous missense variant of the SMAD3 gene. Among these, TGFBR1 c.603T>G (p.1201M) and TGFB3 c.536delA (p.H179FS35) had not been reported previously.@*CONCLUSION@#Variants of the TGFBR1, TGFBR2, SMAD3, TGFB2, TGFB3 and SMAD2 genes are mainly associated with LDS. The severity of the disease phenotype caused by the same variant may vary, whilst the clinical phenotype caused by different variant sites may be specific.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the differences of umbilical vein diameter(D), time average peak velocity(TAmax) and blood flow between congenital heart disease and normal fetus.Methods:The umbilical vein diameter and time average peak velocity of 69 fetuses with congenital heart disease (disease group) from 22 to 27 weeks were prospectively studied in Maternal-Fetal Medical Center in Fetal Heart Disease of Beijing Anzhen Hospital from May 2021 to September 2021. Q 1 (umbilical venous blood flow) was calculated according to the formular [Q=0.5TAmax·π·(D/2) 2)], and Q 2 (Q 2=Q 1/weight) was calculated according to the fetal weight. At the same time, 111 normal fetuses with matched gestational age were selected as control group. The differences of fetal umbilical vein D, TAmax, Q 1 and Q 2 between the two groups were analyzed. Results:The inner diameter of umbilical vein D, TAmax, Q 1 and Q 2 in the congenital heart disease group were lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05). In the control group, the inner diameter of umbilical vein D, TAmax and Q 1 increased with the increase of gestational age and showed a positive linear correlation( r=0.608, 0.320, 0.626; all P≤0.001), while there was no obvious linear correlation between Q 2 and gestational age( r=0.189, P=0.047). Conclusions:The decrease of umbilical vein D, TAmax, Q 1 and Q 2 in the fetus with congenital heart disease indicates the decrease of effective blood flow in placenta-fetus circulation, which indirectly reflects the decrease of placental function in the fetus with congenital heart disease.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the heart hemodynamics in fetuses with premature ductus arteriosus constriction or closure using fetal heart quantification (FHQ).Methods:The clinical data of 50 singleton fetuses with ductus arteriosus constriction ( n=35) or ductus arteriosus closure ( n=15) who underwent echocardiography in Department of Ultrasound, Beijing Anzhen Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, from May 2013 to January 2020. Fifty healthy singleton fetuses were randomly selected as the control group. The ductus arteriosus diameter (DA), pulsatility index (PI), diameter of the left atrium(LA) and right atrium(RA), diameter of the left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV), tricuspid regurgitation/right atrium area ratio (TR/RA Ratio), pressure gradient of tricuspid regurgitation (PG of TR), and heart/chest ratio were measured using conventional fetal echocardiography; the correlations among the parameters were analyzed. Speckle-tracking analysis was used to analysis and compute the LV and RV global spherical index (GSI), fractional area change (FAC) and global strain (GS), the LV ejection fraction(EF) and stroke volume (SV). These variables and their correlations were compared and analyzed. Results:Compared with the control group, the GS and FAC of the LV and RV in the ductus arteriosus constriction or closure groups were lower ( P<0.05) while the LV-SV was higher ( P<0.05). The FAC, GS, and EF values of the LV were higher in the premature ductus arteriosus closure group than in the ductus arteriosus constriction group ( P<0.05), while the RV-FAC was lower ( P<0.05), the RV-GS and LV-SV showed no significant changes ( P>0.05). Correlation analyse showed that the PI was positively correlated with DA( r=0.364, P<0.05); the PG of TR was negatively correlated with DA( r=-0.414, P<0.05); the TR/RA Ratio was negatively linearly correlated with PI( r=-0.388, P<0.05), and positively correlated with RV/LV Ratio ( r=0.369, P<0.05); the other parameters were not significantly correlated with the DA or PI ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Fetal heart hemodynamics in the premature ductus arteriosus constriction or closure groups change significantly, FHQ can provide valuable information for the evaluation of the fetal heart with ductus arteriosus constriction or closure.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To investigate the role of thromboelastography (TEG) in the diagnosis and treatment of PICC related venous thrombosis in tumor patients, and provide basis for predicting PIC related venous thrombosis. 【Methods】 148 tumor patients who underwent PICC catheterization in our hospital from January to July 2019 were enrolled. The patients were subjected to TEG examination and ultrasound examination of limb blood vessels on catheterization side regularly one day before catheterization and 4 successive weeks after catheterization(once a week), respectively. The patients with venous thrombosis were subjected to TEG examination and vascular ultrasound regularly for 3 successive weeks(once a week) after anticoagulant therapy. The relationship between the occurrence and time of venous thrombosis and the changes of TEG parameters was analyzed. 【Results】 The pre-/post-catheterization TEG parameter of 81 patients without venous thrombosis indicated that coagulation state was normal (R value F=0.198, K value F=0.047, α value F=0.442, MAvalue F=0.079, CIvalue F=0.026, P>0.05). The TEG parameter of 67 patients, who developed asymptomatic venous thrombosis 1 to 3 weeks after catheterization(38 cases in 1 week, 16 in 2 weeks and 13 in 3 weeks), indicated the blood was hypercoagulable and the TEG parameter was statistically different from the pre-catheterization value(P0.05). 【Conclusion】 TEG can reflect the status of PICC related venous thrombosis in tumor patients.Strengthening TEG monitor in tumor patients 1 to 3 weeks after PICC catheterization is conducive to early detection, diagnosis and treatment for PICCrelated thrombosis, thus reducing the harm of venous thrombosis to patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the types and accompanied malformations of fetal atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD), and to analyze the characteristics of AVSD gene with second-generation sequencing. Methods: Data of 150 AVSD fetuses diagnosed with ultrasound were reviewed, including 47 fetuses underwent genetic testing. Echocardiographic images were analyzed, and the types and accompanied intracardiac and extracardiac malformations were evaluated. Then the whole genome and whole exon sequencing were performed together with peripheral blood of the parents and umbilical cord tissue from 47 samples. Results: There were 7 (7/47, 14.89%) partial type, 2 (2/47, 4.26%) transitional type and 38 (38/47, 80.85%) complete type AVSD, Among 47 fetuses, including 27 (27/47, 57.45%) associated intracardiac malformation, 19 (19/47, 40.43%) with associated extracardiac malformation and 14 (14/47, 29.79%) with both intracardiac and extracardiac malformation. Tissue degradation was found in 4 samples during genetic testing, while results were obtained in 43 samples including 22 (22/43, 51.16%) positive ones. The positive rate of genomic studies in AVSD fetuses with accompanied intracardiac malformation was 40.74% 11 (11/27), in AVSD with accompanied extracardiac malformation was 73.68% (14/19), while in AVSD with both intracardiac and extracardiac malformation was 78.57%(11/14). Conclusion: Fetal AVSD, especially complete type AVSD has obvious association with extracardiac and intracardiac malformations. Genomic abnormalities are common in AVSD, chromosomal abnormalities are more likely to occur when AVSD combined with extracardial malformations. Genetic testing is necessary when AVSD is diagnosed with prenatal ultrasound. Second-generation sequencing technology is conducive for detection of different levels of genetic abnormalities.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the value of post left atrium space index (PLASI) in the diagnosis of fetal isolated total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC).Methods:Twenty-six cases of fetal isolated TAPVC were retrospectively analyzed as the TAPVC group and 243 normal fetuses were selected as the control group from October 2012 to April 2019 in the Consultation Center of Maternal-Fetus Medicine in Fetal Heart Disease in Beijing An Zhen Hospital. The width of the PLAS and the diameter of the descending aorta were measured in the four chamber view, and then the PLAS index (PLASI) (the width of the PLAS/the diameter of the descending aorta) was calculated. The relationships between the width of PLAS, the diameter of descending aorta and the PLASI and gestational age were analyzed. The difference of the PLASI between isolated TAPVC group and control group was analyzed, and ROC curve was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity in identifying the isolated TAPVC fetuses and normal fetuses.Results:In the 243 normal fetuses in control group, both the width of the PLAS and the diameter of the descending aorta increased with gestational age ( r s=0.362, 0.648, P<0.05). There was no statistically significant correlation between the PLASI and gestational age ( r s=-0.065, P>0.05). The PLAS and the PLASI in isolated TAPVC group were all significantly higher than those in control group ( t=26.31, 34.90, P<0.01). Based on the ROC curve analysis, when the cutoff value was set to 3.6 mm, the sensitivity and specificity of PLAS in identifying isolated TAPVC and normal fetuses were 97.5% and 100%, respectively. When the cutoff value was set to 1.1, the sensitivity and specificity of PLASI in identifying isolated TAPVC and normal fetuses were 100% and 100%, respectively. Conclusions:The PLASI is a sensitive parameter in identifying the isolated TAPVC, which is helpful for the rapid screening of the isolated TAPVC.

(3) All fetuses had left heart obstruction with or without aortic arch dysplasia/interruption of the aortic arch. There were three with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, two with a single ventricle, one with aortic atresia, and one with severe mitral valve dysplasia. Other cardiovascular abnormalities included aortic arch branch abnormalities, double-outlet of the right ventricle, ventricular septal defect, tricuspid atresia, pulmonary valve stenosis (nearly atresia) complicated by pulmonary dysplasia, persistent left superior vena cava, and patent or closed foramen ovale. Secondary changes included enlargement of the right atrium and right ventricle, and dilatation of the pulmonary artery or ductus arteriosus. (4) Four of the seven fetuses showed multiple extracardiac system abnormalities, including facial deformities (two cases), pulmonary dysplasia (two cases), digestive abnormalities(two cases), and urogenital system abnormalities (two cases). Conclusions:The main features of echocardiography for fetal Kabuki syndrome are left heart obstruction, often complicated by other congenital cardiovascular abnormalities.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To analyze the feasibility of prenatal ultrasound quantitative measurement of the angles between trachea and bilateral bronchi as a new diagnostic tool for fetuses with heterotaxy syndrome.@*Methods@#The angles between trachea and bilateral bronchi were measured at 18-34+6 gestational weeks for 200 fetuses with normal ultrasound findings (normal group) and 41 fetuses with heterotaxy syndrome [35 right atrial isomerisms (right group) and six left atrial isomerisms (left group)] diagnosed by ultrasound and confirmed after abortion or induction (case group) in Chongqing Health Center for Women and Children from October 2015 to December 2018. Scatter plots of left/right bronchus angle (α/β) ratios were drawn. Differences in bilateral bronchus angles between the three groups were statistically analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and paired t-test.@*Results@#In the normal group, scatter plots showed the α/β ratios were relatively constant at 0.8-1.0 with larger β than α (t=-33.14, P<0.05), indicating that the right bronchus always went more steeply than the left one. In the case group, the α/β ratios were around 1.0. In the right group, the α value increased and was close to the β value [(153.90±5.43)° vs (156.02±5.59)°, t=-2.56, P>0.05] and presented as bilateral right bronchial angle; in the left group, the β value decreased and was close to the α value [(147.38±3.16)° vs (148.82±5.56)°, t=-1.18, P>0.05] and presented as bilateral left bronchial angle. There were significant differences in the α and β values among the normal group, the right and left groups (all P<0.05), and the bronchial angles of the right group were both greater than those of the left group (all P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#Prenatal ultrasound measurement of the angles between trachea and bilateral bronchi can be used as an indirect indicator for the diagnosis of heterotaxy syndrome.
