Genetic testing plays a crucial role in identifying inherited kidney diseases, with around 15% of CKD cases having monogenic causes. Despite a high percentage of patients reporting a family history of CKD, Mendelian causes only account for about 10% of adult ESRD cases. Understanding the genetic bas

A Chicago physician, Dr. James Herrick, encountered a mysterious blood disorder in a West Indies student back in 1904. This condition, characterized by fatigue, joint pain, yellowish eyes, and an affected family history, poses a genetic inheritance puzzle. Investigations into Mendelian inheritance p

Mendelian inheritance, based on Gregor Mendel's laws proposed in the 19th century, laid the groundwork for modern genetics. Despite initial neglect, Mendel's work was rediscovered in 1900 after notable developments in biology. This historical overview highlights Mendel's contributions and the journe
