Chromosomal mosaicism in human preimplantation embryos: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND Although chromosomal mosaicism in human preimplantation embryos has been described for almost two decades, its exact prevalence is still unknown. The prevalence of mosaicism is important in the context of preimplantation genetic screening in which the chromosomal status of an embryo is determined by the analysis of a single cell from that embryo. METHODS Here we report a systematic...
متن کاملAnaphase lagging mainly explains chromosomal mosaicism in human preimplantation embryos.
BACKGROUND Cleavage stage embryos as well as postimplantation embryos have been studied extensively over the years. However, our knowledge with respect to the chromosomal constitution of human embryos at the blastocyst stage is still rudimentary. METHODS In the present paper, a large series of human blastocysts was examined by means of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). RESULTS It wa...
متن کاملPreimplantation Genetic Screening
In the last 30 years, genetic testing techniques have been developed to identify chromosomally normal embryos in vitro, thereby potentially increasing the proportion of successful cycles with elective single-embryo transfer, and minimizing twin-pregnancy complications and miscarriages. This testing is termed "pre-implantation genetic screening" (PGS), in contrast to preimplantation genetic diag...
متن کاملEnvironmental scan of anal cancer screening practices: worldwide survey results
Anal squamous cell carcinoma is rare in the general population but certain populations, such as persons with HIV, are at increased risk. High-risk populations can be screened for anal cancer using strategies similar to those used for cervical cancer. However, little is known about the use of such screening practices across jurisdictions. Data were collected using an online survey. Health care p...
