Brief Answer:
The three factors are considered together.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The risk of trisomy 21 based on biochemical analysis alone in your case is 1:95 but considering all the three markers - maternal age, nuchal translucency and biochemistry, the risk is considerably reduced. There is no considerable risk for fetal defects. So, you need not worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
