Non-invasive prenatal testing of fetal chromosomal aneuploidies: validation and clinical performance of the veracity test.
Article in Molecular cytogenetics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionNon-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) for fetal aneuploidies using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been widely adopted in clinical practice due to its improved accuracy. A number of NIPT tests have been developed and validated. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the Veracity NIPT test for sex chromosome aneuploidy (SCA) detection in singleton pregnancies, autosomal aneuploidy detection in twin pregnancies and evaluation of Veracity clinical performance under routine NIPT conditions in a diverse cohort.
methodsBlinded retrospective study in singleton pregnancies (
resultsValidation study results for the detection of SCAs in singleton pregnancies exhibited 100% sensitivity and specificity and correctly classified 7 (45,X), 4 (47,XXY), 2 (47,XXX) and 1 (47,XYY) cases. Validation study results for autosomal aneuploidy detection in twin pregnancies exhibited 100% sensitivity and specificity and correctly classified 3 trisomy 21, 1 trisomy 18 and 1 trisomy 13 samples. Clinical performance evaluation of Veracity was performed in 10564 pregnancies with median gestational age of 13 weeks, median maternal age 35 years and median gestational weight of 64 kg. Based on confirmation feedback the PPV for trisomies 21, 18 and 13 was estimated at 100% (95% CI, 92-100%), 100% (95% CI, 69-100%) and 71% (95% CI, 29-96%), respectively. Estimated PPV for Monosomy X was 57% (95%CI, 18-90%), while the NPV for SCA detection was estimated at 100% (95% CI, 99.94-100%).
conclusionVeracity NIPT test is based on a very powerful, highly accurate methodology that can be safely applied in the clinical setting.
