Association of maternal age with fetal sex chromosome aneuploidies / 浙江大学学报·医学版

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the impact of maternal age on sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCA).@*METHODS@#Pregnant women who had karyotype analysis of amniotic fluid in Women's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2014 to July 2018 were recruited. The association of the maternal age with fetal SCAs was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The incidence of 45, X in age group >34-28-34 (28-34 (0.05). After excluding the high risk of sex chromosome abnormalities by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), we found that for 45, X, the incidences of two groups with advanced age were lower than that of ≤ 28 year-old group of age group (34-28-34 (<0.05). The other results were consistent with those without excluding the high risk of sex chromosome abnormalities by NIPT.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Advanced age decreases the incidence of 45, X, but increases the risk of sex chromosome trisomy, especially 47, XXX and 47, XXY.
