Abstract

Objective To investigate the cut-off value of 17 α-hydroxyprogesterone(17α-OHP) level in neonatal dried blood spots for congenital adrenal hyperplasia(CAH) screening by using a genetic screening processor(GSP) at Sichuan Neonatal Disease Screening Center. Methods The time-resolved fluorescence method was used to measure the concentration of 17α-OHP in the dried blood spots on neonatal heel blood filter paper of 45423 neonates,and a retrospective analysis was performed for the correlation of gestational age and birth weight with 17α-OHP level in neonates. The percentile method was used to analyze the screening results,and the cut-off value was determined at P99.5. Results The r coefficient between gestational age and 17α-OHP value is -0.30, showing a negative correlation.The r coefficient between birth weight and 17α-OHP value is -0.17,and its absolute value is less than 0.3,indicating no correlation. The M(Q1Q3 and 99.5th percentile of 17α-OHP level in preterm infants were significantly higher than those in full-term infants(Z=-52.52,P=0.000),and the M(Q1,Q3 and 99.5th percentile of 17α-OHP level in low-weight infants were significantly higher than those in infants with normal weight(Z=-36.45,P=0.000). Conclusion It is recommended to adjust the cut-off value of 17α-OHP based on gestational age for neonates in Sichuan region and modify the cut-off value of 17α-OHP screening as 28.5 nmol/L for preterm infants and 13.0 nmol/L for full-term infants.
