Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy | Genetic testing of Duchenne Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD/BMD) | NGS | DMD gene Exon Coding region and Intron pathogenic mutation, small insertion deletion (<20bp), Exon duplication, Exon deletion. | DMD/BMD patients or suspected patients, search for the cause and assist in clinical diagnosis; Excluding populations at risk of DMD/BMD. |
Mitochondrial disease | Detection of human Mitochondrial genome | NGS | Point mutation, small deletion insertion mutation (<20bp) in Mitochondrial genome, excluding mitochondrial rearrangement, large deletion and duplication. | For patients suspected of mitochondrial disease, search for the cause and assist in clinical diagnosis; A population with typical maternal genetic characteristics and complex clinical phenotypes that cannot determine the disease should undergo differential diagnosis. |
Neonatal genetic diseases | Genetic screening for common genetic diseases in newborns | NGS | Detect over 800 single gene genetic diseases in 13 major systems. | Early screening of deformities, potential illnesses, or intellectual problems in children can minimize the risk and achieve the goal of early detection and treatment. |
Maternal and Child Health | Combined Genetic testing of folic acid, thrombophilia and preeclampsia | Nucleic acid mass spectrometry | Screening for a total of 13 loci in 9 genes related to folic acid metabolism, hereditary thrombophilia, and preeclampsia. | 1.Guide precise supplementation of folic acid to prevent birth defects in newborns,as well as premature delivery,habitual miscarriage,gestational hypertension,preeclampsia,and megaloblastic anemia in pregnant women; 2.Risk assessment of gestational thromboembolism and prevention of hereditary thrombophilia during pregnancy and postpartum; 3.Understand the genetic risk of Gestational hypertension and prevent the occurrence of pregnancy induced hypertension. |
Maternal and Child Health | Non invasive prenatal Genetic testing (NIPT) of fetal chromosome Aneuploidy | NGS | Detection of Aneuploidy of fetal chromosome 13/18/21 |
At 12-22+6 weeks of pregnancy, detecting fetal free DNA in maternal peripheral blood can assess whether the fetus has trisomy 21 syndrome (Down syndrome) 18 trisomy syndrome (Edward's syndrome), 13 trisomy syndrome (fear of Dow's syndrome). |
Maternal and Child Health | Non invasive prenatal Genetic testing of fetal chromosome Aneuploidy Plus2.0 (NIPT-Plus2.0) | NGS | The microdeletions and microduplications of Aneuploidy+4 sex chromosomes+116 chromosomes on chromosome 13/18/21 of the fetus were detected. | Assist in diagnosing chromosomal and genomic diseases caused by chromosomal abnormalities in prenatal samples, and guide eugenics and fertility. |
Child development | Genetic testing of vitamin D and calcium utilization ability in children | Nucleic acid mass spectrometry | Detect 1 locus of GC gene related to vitamin D metabolism, 5 loci of VDR and LRP5 genes related to calcium absorption metabolism. | Guiding children to supplement sufficient amounts of vitamin D and calcium is of great significance for the accumulation of bone mass in adolescence and the prevention of osteoporosis and fractures in adulthood. |
Genetic disease | Genetic testing of individual whole Exon group | NGS | The Coding region of Exon covering all human genes can detect single base mutations and small insertion deletion mutations, excluding Exon deletion duplication, dynamic mutation and Chromosomal translocation detection. | Research on genetic mechanisms or pathogenic mutations of diseases: testing patients with suspected monogenic genetic diseases to comprehensively explore the pathogenic mechanisms at the genetic level; Auxiliary diagnosis: patients with familial tendency, but other Genetic testing failed to confirm the diagnosis. |
Genetic disease | Clinical full Exon Genetic testing | NGS | Covering 14 disease systems, 4269 genetic diseases, and 3877 genes. | 1.Auxiliary diagnosis:Conduct etiological analysis on patients with inherited features but whose clinical manifestations have not yet been determined as a single gene disease;Testing patients with suspected monogenic genetic diseases to assist in clinical diagnosis at the genetic level;Provide correct guidance for subsequent treatment interventions due to strong heterogeneity; 2.Fertility guidance:Provide fertility guidance for couples with a family history or who have given birth to a child; 3.Disease risk assessment:Conduct risk assessment on high-risk individuals with a family history,provide early intervention plans,and reduce disease risk. |
