Publicación Acceso abierto “Alteraciones citogenéticas en pacientes con diagnóstico de infertilidad en Lima, Perú “(Sociedad Chilena de Obstetricia y Ginecologia, 2022-06-09) Moya-Salazar, Jeel; Vega-Vera, Rafael; Rojas-Zumaran, Víctor; Contreras-Pulache, Hans“Introducción: La infertilidad es una enfermedad multicausal y el componente genético representa uno de sus principales eventos. Si bien la distribución de la infertilidad puede variar entre poblaciones, las parejas de los países con bajos y medianos ingresos pueden verse más afectadas por la infertilidad, con una proporción de alteraciones citogenéticas aún no esclarecidas. Objetivo: Evaluar la frecuencia de alteraciones citogenéticas y su correlación con el número de abortos en pacientes peruanas con diagnóstico de infertilidad. Método: Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal en 400 pacientes de 18 a 60 años, de ambos sexos, con diagnóstico de infertilidad. Se registraron las características clínicas disponibles durante el examen genético y el análisis citogenético convencional fue con bandeo GTG en muestras de sangre periférica. El análisis de correlación se realizó con la prueba de Spearman. Resultados: Del total, 389 pacientes cumplieron los criterios de inclusión, y de estos, 169 (43,44%) tuvieron reportes de abortos (promedio: 2,25, rango: 1-7). Hallamos una correlación significativa ente el número de abortos y las alteraciones citogenéticas (p < 0,000). Reportamos 25/289 (6,43%) alteraciones cromosómicas, de las que 11/25 (44%) fueron heterocromatinas constitutivas y 6/25 (24%) fueron translocaciones reciprocas. Las alteraciones citogenéticas más frecuentes fueron 16qh+ y 9qh+ (ambas con un 16%), y afectaron a 17 (68%) varones. Conclusiones: Existe una moderada frecuencia de alteraciones citogenéticas en pacientes peruanos con diagnóstico de infertilidad, y las alteraciones más frecuentes fueron heterocromatina constitutivas. Además, evidenciamos una correlación significativa ente el número de abortos y las alteraciones citogenéticas.“Publicación Acceso abierto Clinical, Phenotypic, and Demographic Characteristics of Peruvian Children and Neonates with Autosomal and Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies(AVES, 2023-02-28) Moya-Salazar, Jeel; Rojas-Zumaran, Víctor; Vega-Vera, Rafael; Espinoza-Lecca, Eduardo; Contreras-Pulache, Hans“Objective: Autosomal and sex chromosome aneuploidies are associated with multiple risk factors that determine their frequency and their social and health impact. We aimed to determine the clinical, phenotypic, and demographic characteristics of Peruvian children and neonates with autosomal and sex chromosome aneuploidies. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted on 510 pediatric patients. We conducted a cytogenetic analysis with G-bands by trypsin using Giemsa (GTG) banding, and the results were reported using the International System for Cytogenetics Nomenclature 2013 system. Results: Of 399 children (mean age 2.1 ± 4 years), 84 (16.47%) had aneuploidies, with 86.90% being autosomal (73.81% trisomies). In autosomal aneuploidies, 67.85% (n=57) of the children had Down syndrome where the most common cause was free trisomy 21 (52 cases, 61.91%), followed by Robertsonian translocation (4 cases, 4.76%). Edwards and Patau syndrome affected 4 (4.76%) and 1 (1.19%) neonate. The most frequent phenotypic characteristics in children with Down syndrome were Down syndrome-like facies (45.61%) and macroglossia (19.29%). Of sex chromosome aneuploidies, 6/7 were abnormalities of the X chromosome (mainly 45,X). Neonate’s age (19 ± 44.9 months), paternal age (49 ± 9 years), height (93.4 ± 176 cm), and gestational age (30 ± 15.4 weeks) were significantly correlated with the presence of sex chromosome and autosomal aneuploidies (P < .001; P=.025; and P=.001). Conclusions: Down syndrome and Turner’s syndrome were the most frequent aneuploidy and sex chromosome aneuploidy, respectively. In addition, some of the clinical, phenotypic, and demographic characteristics, such as newborn’s age, paternal age, gestational age, and height, were significantly correlated with the occurrence of aneuploidy. In this sense, these characteristics could be considered risk factors among this population.“Publicación Acceso abierto Clinical, Phenotypic, and Demographic Characteristics of Peruvian Children and Neonates with Autosomal and Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies(AVES, 2023-02-28) Moya-Salazar, Jeel; Rojas-Zumaran, Víctor; Vega-Vera, Rafael; Espinoza-Lecca, Eduardo; Contreras-Pulache, Hans“Objective: Autosomal and sex chromosome aneuploidies are associated with multiple risk factors that determine their frequency and their social and health impact.
