Confirmation and differential diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia from dried blood spots by UHPLC‑MS/MS

Newborn screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) has high false-positive rates, necessitating confirmation of primary results. We developed a single LC-MS/MS assay for dried blood spots (DBS) that allows concurrent confirmation and differential diagnosis of CAH. All five steroids (cortisol...

Tartalmi kivonat:Newborn screening for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) has high false-positive rates, necessitating confirmation of primary results. We developed a single LC-MS/MS assay for dried blood spots (DBS) that allows concurrent confirmation and differential diagnosis of CAH. All five steroids (cortisol, 21-deoxycortisol, 11-deoxycortisol, 4-androstenedione and 17-hydroxyprogesterone) were baseline resolved and reliably determined (UHPLC: PerkinElmer Flexar FX-10; MS/MS: ABSCIEX QTRAP 5500; column: Phenomenex Kinetex XB-C18). In Hungary-Romania Cross-Border Cooperation Project (HU-RO 0802/008 SCREENGEN), the 21-hydroxylase deficient form of CAH was confirmed in one of a total of 163 samples tested positive in primary screening. Our validated assay can use the same DBS as in primary screening (2nd-tier test), eliminating the need for repeated blood sampling and accelerating diagnosis.
