• Autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD) is a type of autosomal dominant PKD (chromosomes 4 and 16) 
• Autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD) is a type of autosomal dominant PKD (chromosomes 4 and 16)  
• PKD is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern (linked to chromosome 6) 
• Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (formerly known as familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy type 1, medullary cystic kidney disease type 2, or uromodulin-associated kidney disease, connected to chromosomes 1, 16, 17, and chromosomes 1, 16, 17) 
• Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSG) is a kind of glomerulosclerosis that affects (linked to chromosomes 1, 9, 10, 11, 19) • Fabry disease 
• Alport syndrome 
• Sickle cell nephropathy 
• Familial hypercalcemic hypocalciuria 
 • Cystinuria 
• Hypertension 
• Diabetes mellitus 
• Fabry disease  
• Alport syndrome 
• Sickle cell nephropathy 
• Familial hypercalcemic hypocalciuria 
• HDR syndrome (hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural hearing loss, and renal disease syndrome; sometimes known as Barakat syndrome; chromosome 10p) 
• Liddle syndromes of apparent mineralocorticoid excess and other monogenic hypertension 
• Bartter and Gitelman syndromes of apparent mineralocorticoid excess and other monogenic hypertension • Nephrotic syndrome (congenital) (Finish and other variants, mapped to chromosomes 1, 3, 11, 19)
