Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING FETAL CHROMOSOMAL ANEUPLOIDY, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/011929
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present application discloses a method and apparatus for detecting fetal chromosomal aneuploidy, and a storage medium. The method for detecting fetal chromosomal aneuploidy of the present application comprises: according to the concentration of fetal DNA in the cell-free DNA in the blood of a pregnant woman to be tested, a Z value, and chimerism, calculating a new Z value of the sample to be tested, and according to the new Z value, determining whether an aneuploidy abnormality has occurred in fetal chromosomes, the chimerism being the ratio of abnormal fetal cells to all fetal cells. In the present application, chimerism is inventively applied to fetal chromosomal aneuploidy detection, and three variables, i.e., the fetal DNA concentration, the chimerism, and the Z value, are taken into consideration to calculate the new Z value, such that NIPT accuracy can be improved, and true positive and false positive samples can be distinguished well, thereby reducing false positive samples; and the new Z value conforms to a normal distribution, such that the current supervision and clinical use requirements can be met, and data distribution fluctuations are reduced, thereby reducing the gray scale rate and the retest rate, and improving the stability of the test result.
