How to read the four results of eugenics
The four eugenic items refer to the four examination items in early newborn screening, mainly to detect whether the newborn has hereditary diseases and congenital diseases such as phenylketonuria, congenital hypothyroidism, congenital deafness and atrial fibrillation. Diseases such as heart disease. So, what do you think of the four results of eugenics? The following is a detailed explanation from four aspects.
1. What are the four items of eugenics

The four eugenics items are four examination items conducted for the early screening of hereditary diseases or congenital diseases in newborns. These four examination items include hereditary diseases such as phenylketonuria, congenital hypothyroidism, congenital deafness and atrial fibrillation, and congenital heart disease. These four examinations are conducted within 48 hours after the newborn is born, using blood from the soles of the newborn\’s feet.
2. Results of the four eugenic items
Next, the results of the four items of eugenics are analyzed. If all four tests are negative, the baby has no problems with hereditary and congenital diseases. If any test is positive, further secondary screening or diagnosis will be carried out, and corresponding treatment will be carried out. In the most serious cases, such as phenylketonuria and hypothyroidism, prompt treatment is needed to avoid irreversible damage.
3. The significance of the four items of eugenics
So, why do we need to carry out four eugenic examinations? If a baby is born with diseases such as hypothyroidism, congenital deafness, and phenylketonuria, it will often directly affect his intellectual and physical development, and even lead to severe disability. The opportunity for treatment after birth has been lost. Therefore, before the baby is born, four eugenic examinations can be carried out to detect some hereditary and congenital diseases in the baby, and timely treatment measures can be taken to reduce unnecessary pain and consequences.
4. How should mothers pay attention to the four results of eugenics
Finally, it is also very important for mothers to pay attention to the four results of eugenics. If the test result is positive, seek medical treatment promptly and follow the doctor\’s recommendations for treatment. To a certain extent, mothers also need to make appropriate adjustments to their lifestyle and diet based on the results of the four eugenics tests to ensure the healthy growth of their babies. In addition, you can also actively conduct pre-pregnancy check-ups and avoid developing bad living habits starting before pregnancy, so as to minimize the harm to the fetus.
Summary
The significance of the four items of eugenics is self-evident, and it is particularly important for our next generation, especially for their healthy growth. For mothers, understanding the four examination items and their significance and paying attention to the four eugenic results is the best way to protect the healthy growth of the baby, and it is also the greatest responsibility of every mother. To sum up, we need to strengthen the learning and application of eugenics and eugenics related knowledge from both the awareness and practice aspects, so that our babies can grow up healthily and happily.
