| Abstract | BACKGROUND: X chromosome aneuploidy <10% in female patients is a routinely used reporting limit in diagnostic cytogenetics. X aneuploidy (<10%) is commonly detected in women investigated for infertility or recurrent miscarriages. It is unclear if this aneuploidy is causally relevant or related to the culture process. Information about the background rate of X aneuploidy in young fertile women would be helpful in resolving this issue. AIM: This study aimed to investigate the rate of X aneuploidy in young fertile women in cultured and uncultured samples to determine if the commonly used <10% limit is relevant. METHOD: Volunteers (aged 22-40 years) with proven fertility (n = 78) participated. The number of X chromosome signals in 500 cultured and 500 uncultured preparations were enumerated using FISH. RESULTS: Significantly, all participants had <5% X aneuploidy in both preparations, X chromosome loss occurred (2.4%) more frequently than gain (0.7%). Cultured preparations had a mean of 2.1% cells with X chromosome aneuploidy (95% CI 1.9-2.3%) compared with a mean rate of 0.9% aneuploidy in uncultured preparations (95% CI 0.7-1.1%). The relative risk for cultured preparations having X aneuploidy compared with uncultured cells was 2.33 (P < 0.001) (95% CI 2.1-2.6). CONCLUSION: Young fertile women had <5% X aneuploidy. The rate of X aneuploidy was higher in cultured (2.1%) compared with uncultured (0.9%) preparations (P < 0.001). This data may provide useful background information when considering low level X aneuploidy in other groups of women with clinical indications for karyotype. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
