Abstract:
A method and system for analyzing circulating cell-free nucleic acids from a pregnant female with reduced bias. Counts of sequence reads mapped to portions of a reference genome are obtained. A regression model is generated that models the relationship between the counts and the GC content. The read counts are normalized according to the regression model to remove the GC bias. The normalized counts are used for further analysis, such as the detection of fetal aneuploidy.
Abstract:
Methods for non-invasive assessment of genetic variations that make use of nucleic acid fragment length information, in particular length of fragments in circulating cell-free nucleic acids and compares the number of counts from fragments with different length.

Abstract:
Provided herein are methods, processes and apparatuses for non-invasive assessment of genetic variations that make use of nucleic acid fragments from circulating cell free nucleic acid. Also provided herein are methods for partitioning one or more genomic regions of a reference genome into a plurality of portions according to one or more features.
