  1. TP: true positive confirmed by genetic test, FP: false positive confirmed by genetic test, TN: true negative confirmed by clinical follow-up, FN: false negative confirmed by clinical follow-up. PPV: positive predictive value, NPV: negative predictive value. PPVs for T21, T18, T13, SCAs, and XO were confirmed based on cytogenetic test. PPVs for T21 (phenotype), T18 (phenotype), T13 (phenotype), SCAs (phenotype), and XO (phenotype) were calculated based on prenatal ultrasound detection and cytogenetic tests. Fetal demise and fetal anomalies revealed by prenatal ultrasound were considered possible T21, T18, T13, XO. T21, and T18 were excluded based on normal newborn examination
