AbstractThe aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of extended embryo culture in advanced maternal age (AMA) patients (37–43 years). In this retrospective analysis, 21,301 normally fertilized zygotes from 4952 couples were cultured until the blastocyst stage. Blastocyst development, including kinetics and morphology, transfer rate, implantation and live birth rates, were measured. In AMA patients, the blastocyst rate was significantly decreased as compared to that in younger women. On day 5, blastocysts underwent growth retardation in AMA patients, which was highlighted by a decreased rate of full/expanded blastocysts. Organization of the cells (trophectoderm and inner cell mass) was unaffected by age. However, in AMA patients, a ‘good’ morphology blastocyst had a decreased probability to implant compared with an ‘average’ morphology blastocyst in younger women. While the rates of blastocyst transfer and useful blastocysts were similar to younger patients, in AMA patients, both implantation and live birth rates were significantly reduced. Our results support the idea that extended embryo culture is not harmful for AMA patients. However, embryo selection allowed by such culture is not powerful enough to avoid chromosomal abnormalities in the developed blastocysts and therefore cannot compensate for the effect of a woman’s age.

Abstract Background In the entire population, an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) is closely associated with chromosomal abnormalities. ARSA with additional ultrasonic findings would increase risk of chromosomal abnormalities. The risk of fetal chromosomal abnormalities increased exponentially with the maternal age. These risks in the advanced maternal age (AMA) group are uncertain. This study aimed to determine the incidence of ARSA in Chinese AMA and non-AMA women and the frequency of aneuploidy among AMA and non-AMA women with ARSA. Methods This retrospective study included 13,690 singleton pregnancies, were divided into AMA and non-AMA groups. Integrated obstetric ultrasonic screening, biochemical screening, noninvasive prenatal screening, and fetal karyotype analysis were analyzed. Results The overall incidence of ARSA was 0.69%, with no difference between age groups. The incidence of chromosomal abnormalities in the AMA group (37 / 2860) was much higher than that of the non-AMA group. The risk of chromosomal abnormalities significantly increased with both ARSA detected and additional ultrasound findings. With combined ARSA and AMA, the likelihood of the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities increased. Chimerism (45X / 46XX) was found with isolated ARSA in AMA pregnancies. Conclusion There is a high prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities in fetuses of AMA women. ARSA increases the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in both age groups, especially combined with ARSA. When ARSA occurs in AMA women, it confers a high likelihood of chromosomal abnormalities.

Abstract Background: In entire population, aberrant right subclavian artery ( ARSA ) was in closely association with chromosomal abnormalities. The risk of fetal chromosomal abnormalities increased with the maternal age exponentially. While, the situation in advanced maternal age ( AMA ) group is uncertain. This study aimed to establish the incidence of ARSA in Chinese AMA and non-AMA women and to determine the frequency of aneuploidy among AMA and non-AMA women with ARSA. Methods: The retrospective study included 13,690 singleton pregnancies which were divided into AMA and non-AMA groups. Integrated obstetric ultrasonic screening, biochemical screening, noninvasive prenatal screening and fetal karyotype analysis were analyzed. Results: 1. The overall incidence of ARSA was 0.69 % with no difference in both groups. 2. The prevalence rate of chromosomal abnormalities in AMA group ( 37 / 2,860 ) was much higher than that in non-AMA group. The risk of chromosomal abnormalities significantly increased with both ARSA detected and additional ultrasound findings. 3. With ARSA detected, the incidence increased to 20.00 % and 10.00 % in AMA and non-AMA cases, respectively. 4. Additionally, a case with chimeric Turner syndrome ( 45X / 46XX ) was found with isolated ARSA in AMA pregnancy. Conclusion: There is a high prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities in AMA fetuses. Both isolated and nonisolated ARSA would increase the risk of chromosomal abnormalities. Moreover, when ARSA is found in AMA ones, it confers a sharp increase in the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities.

Objective High-throughput sequencing based on copy number variation (CNV-seq) is commonly used to detect chromosomal abnormalities including aneuploidy. This study provides evidence for the prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities in target populations. Methods A total of 160 samples, including 83 high-risk pregnancies, 37 spontaneous abortions, and 40 suspected genetic disorders, were analyzed by CNV-seq. Relationships between the incidence of these chromosomal abnormalities and risk factors (e.g. advanced maternal age, abnormal pregnancy history, and family history of congenital disease) were further analyzed by subgroup. Results A total of 37 (44.6%) high-risk pregnancies, 25 (67.6%) spontaneous abortions, and 22 (55%) suspected genetic disorders had chromosomal abnormalities including aneuploidy and CNVs. There was an increased risk association between the prevalence of aneuploidy and pathogenic-relevant CNV in the fetus or abortive tissue and advanced maternal age. Moreover, a family history of congenital disease was also positively correlated with fetal chromosomal abnormalities in high-risk pregnancies. Conclusion A relatively high prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities was detected in high-risk pregnancies, spontaneous abortions, and suspected genetic disorders, indicating the importance of CNV detection in such populations.
