Neonatal screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

Abstract: SUMMIARY Capillary blood samples from 42 930 infants born in the Italian region of EmiliaRomagna were collected for 17-hydroxyprogesterone radioimmunoassays on days 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, or

“…The reported incidence of CAH varies in different countries from 1:4,900 to 1:22,000 [4, 5, 6]. Our results show that 5 of 24,153 newborns studied were affected.…”

“…(3), e posteriormente outros pesquisadores, descreveram uma técnica de ensaio para a dosagem da 17OH Progesterona (17OHP) a partir do sangue de recém-nascidos colhido em papel filtro (4)(5)(6)(7).…”

“…Os resultados mostraram uma incidência de indivíduos com a forma perdedora de sal ainda maior que a esperada, passando de 1:490 para 1:282 após a triagem. Subseqüentemente, vários programas foram iniciados na Itália, Japão, França, Suécia, Suíça, Nova Zelândia e Israel, assim como em outros países onde a incidência da HAC-D21OH é muito elevada, como na Islândia (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). A triagem para HAC-D21OH foi introduzida nos EUA em 1987 e, atualmente, 38 estados norte-americanos realizam rotineiramente esta investigação (9).…”

“…Linkage disequilibrium with the HLA-Bw47;DR7 haplotype segment has been demonstrated [5][6][7], and more recently the gene has been further localized to the C4 region of the HLA supergene by molecular genetic techniques [8,9]. The frequency of the classical disease has been estimated at 1/8,000 by neonatal screening of a homogeneous Caucasian population in Italy using a microfilter paper technique [10]. In other studies throughout Europe and the United States, the frequency of the disease ranged from 1/5,000 to 1/15,000 [11].…”
