Diagnostic Testing After Positive Cell-Free DNA Screening for Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies: Clinical and Socioeconomic Determinants

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to investigate the socioeconomic and medical factors influencing the decision to undergo confirmatory diagnostic testing after positive cell-free DNA screening for sex chromosome aneuploidies. Their study found that only 26% of patients pursued further testing, with significant disparities based on age, socioeconomic status, race, and language preference, indicating that these factors play a critical role in the accessibility and uptake of prenatal diagnostic services.
