The national stat is only a percentage of DS fetuses that were prenatally diagnosed. The state stat appears to be the percentage of all fetuses, including those that went undiagnosed until birth. Obviously all the undiagnosed ones were carried to term, so it's not really very valid to compare the two numbers.
