Abstract
- Background: Chromosomal abnormalities are a major cause of early pregnancy loss. However, models synthesizing existing genetic technologies to improve pregnancy outcomes are lacking. We aim to provide an integrated laboratory algorithm for the genetic etiology of couples who experienced pregnancy loss.Methods: Over a 6-year period, 3,634 products of conception (POCs) following early pregnancy loss were collected. The clinical outcomes from a laboratory algorithm based on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and parental chromosomal karyotyping assays were comprehensively evaluated.Results: In total, 3,445 of 3,634 (94.8%) POCs had no maternal-cell contamination. Of those POCs, the detection rate of abnormal results was 65.2% (2,247/3,445), of which 91.2% (2,050/2,247) had numerical chromosomal abnormalities, 2.7% (60/2,247) had copy-number variations (CNVs) ≥10 Mb, 2.7% (61/2,247) had CNVs of terminal deletion and duplication, 2.8% (62/2,247) had CNVs
