Objective:To carry out carrier screening among people of childbearing age, detect the pathogenic genes of monogenic genetic diseases and analyze the carrier status of pathogenic variants, so as to provide fertility guidance and intervention measures for high-risk families.Methods:From August 2022 to August 2023, 1 533 families of childbearing age who met the criteria were recruited in the Chinese PLA General Hospital, including a total of 3 044 subjects. According to the standard enrollment procedure, 223 genes (197 autosomal recessive genes and 26 X-linked genes) of the subjects were tested. According to the screening results, genetic counseling and fertility guidance were provided to the subjects. Invasive prenatal diagnosis was performed for high-risk couples (both couples being carriers of the same autosomal recessive disease gene or the woman was a carrier of X-linked disease gene), and their pregnancy pattern, outcome and offspring phenotype were followed up.Results:(1) A total of 3 044 cases from 1 511 couples and women of childbearing age from 22 families were included for carrier screening. Totally 1 503 families chose simultaneous screening and 30 families chose sequential screening out of the 1 533 families. Among the 3 044 subjects, 1 603 individuals carried at least one pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant, and the overall carrier rate was 52.66% (1 603/3 044). A total of 2 292 pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants were detected, and 0.75 variants (2 292/3 044) were detected per capita. (2) The three genes with the highest carrier rates were GJB2 (8.67%, 264/3 044), CYP21A2 (3.19%, 97/3 044) and PAH (3.09%, 94/3 044). There were 32 genes with a carrier rate ≥1/200, 17 genes with a carrier rate ≥1/100, and 7 genes with a carrier rate ≥1/50. (3) Thirty-eight high-risk families were identified. After excluding G6PD gene mutation, there were 33 high-risk families, of which 25 couples were carriers of the same autosomal recessive gene, 9 women were carriers of X-linked gene, and 1 family was double high-risk couple with both autosomal recessive and X-linked gene. After further excluding the GJB2 c.109G>A mutation, 21 high-risk families were identified. Preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disease was performed in 12 families after genetic counseling. Prenatal diagnosis was completed in 4 out of 5 high-risk families who conceived naturally. Two fetuses carried the parental variants and terminated the pregnancy, one fetus did not carry the parental variants but was induced due to trisomy 21 syndrome, and one fetus was a carrier of congenital disorders of glycosylation type 1a.Conclusions:Carrier screening effectively identifies high-risk genetic disease families and provides reproductive guidance to prevent the birth of affected children. However, establishing multidisciplinary team is essential for managing complex cases. Implementation should prioritize prenatal institutions with genetic counseling or diagnostic expertise for monogenic disorders or established referral networks.

Objective:To observe the safety and short-term efficacy of using an autologous fascia lata sling (AFLS) for tension-free mid-urethral sling (MUS) in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI).Methods:Between February 2022 and December 2023, 11 patients with SUI underwent AFLS-MUS. Preoperative data were recorded, including basic patient information and completion of urinary distress inventory 6 (UDI-6). During surgery, AFLS was harvested through a small incision using a tendon extractor, and used as a sling for transobturator or retropubic MUS. Perioperative indicators were recorded, including surgical approach, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, duration of catheterization, perioperative complications (Clavien-Dindo classification), and surgical costs. Follow-ups included outpatient physical examination at 2 months postoperatively, and telephone follow-up at 6 months, 1 year, and annually thereafter. Follow-up content included the presence or absence of urinary leakage symptoms, UDI-6, satisfaction, patient global impression of improvement (PGI-I), and complications.Results:The age of the 11 patients was (54.8±10.9) years (range: 41-72 years), with body mass index of (23.9±1.8) kg/m2 (range: 21.4-27.3 kg/m2). All patients experienced urinary leakage after coughing, sneezing and physical activity, with positive SUI provocation tests. The preoperative UDI-6 was 50.0±21.6 (range: 16.7-79.2), the result of 1-hour pad test was (18.9±12.0) g (range: 2.5-71.2 g). Four cases underwent MUS only, with operation time of (98.0±13.3) minutes (range: 86-117 minutes), and intraoperative blood loss of (17.5±5.0) ml (range: 10-20 ml); 7 cases also underwent pelvic floor repair simultaneously. The postoperative hospital stay was (3.5±2.0) days (range: 2-9 days). The duration of catheterization was (4.5±3.8) days (range: 2-11 days), with postoperative urinary retention in three cases, one of which underwent sling release surgery due to severe postoperative voiding difficulty 1 week after MUS, with no other complications of Clavien-Dindo grade 2 or above. The cost of AFLS harvest plus MUS was (2 762±293) yuan. At the 2-month outpatient follow-up, all patients were free of urinary leakage symptoms, with UDI-6 of 2.3±1.9 (range: 0-8.3); satisfaction was "very satisfied" in 10 cases and "fairly satisfied" in 1 case, with PGI-I all being "much better", and pelvic examinations were normal. Telephone follow-up showed one case lost to follow-up, and the remaining 10 cases had follow-up time of (18.6±4.9) months (range: 7-26 months), all without urinary leakage, with UDI-6 of 2.7±2.6, satisfaction rated as "very satisfied", and PGI-I all "much better".Conclusion:This modified AFLS-MUS for the treatment of SUI shows good short-term efficacy and high safety in harvest site, with the need for more data accumulation and long-term follow-up.

Objective:To describe the safety of using the Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse.Methods:A pilot descriptive clinical study was conducted, enrolling 16 severe pelvic organ prolapse patients at Peking University First Hospital from April 2023 to January 2024. Patients who consented to participate in this study underwent laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for severe pelvic organ prolapse using Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system. Preoperative clinical basic data and perioperative data of the patients were collected, summarizing the data on perioperative bleeding and complications, and reviewed the surgical learning experience. The evaluation indicators related to the learning experience included: (1) efficiency evaluation: including equipment docking time, total surgery time, suturing time, mechanical arm operation time and hysterectomy time, which were timed and recorded during surgery; (2) equipment operability evaluation: including equipment operation task load assessment and intraoperative operation feeling score. The cumulative sum analysis method was used to quantify surgery time and fit the learning curve.Results:Sixteen patients were successfully enrolled and underwent surgery, including total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy or salpingectomy plus sacrocolpopexy, or sacrocolpopexy alone (for one case without uterus). The age of 16 cases was (56.7±7.6) years (ranged from 44 to 67 years), with body mass index of (25.4±2.5) kg/m2. Concurrent procedures included anterior vaginal wall repair in 12 cases (12/16), posterior vaginal wall repair in 13 cases (13/16), tension-free vaginal tape obturator system in 1 case (1/16), and recto-uterine pouch hernia repair in 4 cases (4/16). The total surgery time was (355.8±91.1) minutes, with docking time at (6.7±4.9) minutes, robotic operative time at (267.6±81.4) minutes, robotic suturing time at (155.6±53.9) minutes, and hysterectomy time at (112.0±45.3) minutes. Learning curve analysis revealed inflection points at 6 cases for total surgery time ( P<0.001, R2=0.944) and robotic operative time ( P<0.001, R2=0.982), 5 cases for docking time ( P<0.001, R2=0.989), and 6 cases for robotic suturing time ( P<0.001, R2=0.907). Hysterectomy time had an inflection point at 5 cases ( P=0.023, R2=0.700). Median blood loss was 30 ml (range: 10-1 000 ml), with severe bleeding in one patient (1/16). No conversions to open surgery or laparoscopy occurred, and no severe perioperative or postoperative complications were reported. Conclusion:The Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system demonstrates excellent short-time safety and ease of operation for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and value of nomogram based on base line clinical and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) characteristics for pretreatment predicting the depth of myometrial invasion and tumor grade of endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC).Methods:Preoperative baseline clinical characteristics and DCE-MRI characteristics of 194 EEC patients were prospectively collected at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University from October 2020 to January 2022 and used as a training set. Univariate analysis was conducted to compare baseline clinical characteristics and DCE-MRI quantitative parameters [including tumor volume, and mean, median, and standard deviation of volume transfer constant (K trans), rate constant (K ep), extravascular extracellular volume fraction (V e), and initial area under the enhancement curve (iAUC)] between patients with deep myometrial invasion (DMI) and those with superficial myometrial invasion (SMI), as well as between high-grade and low-grade EEC. Multivariate logistics regression analysis was used to identify independent predictors for the construction of nomogram. An independent external testing set comprising 127 EEC patients was retrospectively collected from Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University and Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University (Xiamen Branch). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used for evaluating the model′s predictive performance and clinical net benefit, respectively. Results:(1) The depth of myometrial invasion: univariate analysis showed that in the training set, the EEC patients with DMI differed significantly from those with SMI in clinical characteristics including higher proportion of postmenopausal state and overweight [body mass index (BMI)≥25 kg/m2], and abnormal levels of serum cancer antigen (CA) 125, CA 199, and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), and in DCE-MRI quantitative parameters including tumor volume, and median, mean, and standard deviation of K trans, median of V e, as well as median, mean, and standard deviation of iAUC (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the patient′s menstrual status, BMI, CA 199, tumor volume, and mean of iAUC were independent predictors of the depth of myometrial invasion, and constructed the nomogram (recorded as Nomogram_1), achieving an AUC of 0.861 (95% CI: 0.803-0.919) in the training set. In the independent external testing set, the AUC was 0.876 (95% CI: 0.815-0.938), with corresponding sensitivity of 82.0%, specificity of 80.7%, accuracy of 81.1%, positive predictive value (PPV) of 65.3%, and negative predictive value (NPV) of 91.0% for predicting DMI. (2) The EEC grade: univariate analysis showed that in the training set, high-grade EEC patients differed significantly from low-grade EEC in clinical characteristics including patient′s age, the proportion of postmenopausal state and overweight, and abnormal levels of serum CA 125, and in DCE-MRI quantitative parameters including tumor volume, median, mean, and standard deviation of K trans, median and mean of V e, as well as median, mean, and standard deviation of iAUC (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the patient′s menstrual status, BMI, tumor volume, and median of V e emerged as independent predictors of EEC grade, and constructed the nomogram (recorded as Nomogram_2), achieving an AUC of 0.845 (95% CI: 0.786-0.893) in the training set. While in the external testing set, the AUC was 0.819 (95% CI: 0.744-0.894), with corresponding sensitivity of 72.4%, specificity of 72.4%, accuracy of 72.4%, PPV of 43.8%, and NPV of 89.9% for predicting high-grade EEC. (3) The DCA curves demonstrated that both Nomogram_1 and Nomogram_2 yielded obvious positive clinical net benefits across a wide range of threshold probabilities. Conclusion:The nomogram based on pretreatment clinical and DCE-MRI characteristics has the potential to noninvasive predict the depth of myometrial invasion and grade of EEC, providing valuable reference information for clinical management decision-making.
