I believe that the prospective father and mother must have heard the "two diseases" screening of the newborn. Which two diseases are the "two diseases" screening of the newborn? Why is it free? Do you know these?

Come and listen to what the medical genetic genetic and prenatal diagnosis department of Luoyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital, what does Wang Yaman say?

The "two diseases" screening of the newborn is a practical project in Henan Province, and it has been launched in Henan Province for free since 2017. Newborn "two diseases" screening includes congenital thyroid dysfunction and phenylconne urine.

Congenital thyroid dysfunction is also called dysfunction. The clinical manifestation is low intelligence, slow growth and development, low basic metabolism, and often special faces. It needs to be identified with the Tang's syndrome. Once diagnosis is confirmed, early intervention should be used to avoid affecting physical development and intellectual development.

Pepyladone urine is a common genetic metabolic disease that is hidden inheritance of ingredients. The main clinical manifestations are low intelligence, loss of skin pigments, and mouse urine. Children with phenoloneuria cannot eat normal foods, and they need to give a diet of low benzene. These children can achieve the level of normal children after early standardized treatment, physical development and intellectual development.

In addition, it should be noted that couples who have had phenylconne urine, and 25%of patients may have such patients in the next pregnancy. It is recommended to perform prenatal diagnosis at the next pregnancy.
