4 | Acute Lymphoblastic/Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) | Acute Lymphoblastic/Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) does not appear to be an inherited disease. It does not seem to run in families, so a person’s risk is not increased if a family member has the disease. But there are some genetic syndromes (some of which can be inherited from a parent) that seem to raise the risk of ALL. | http://www.cancer.org/cancer/leukemia-acutelymphocyticallinadults/detailedguide/leukemia-acute-lymphocytic-risk-factors | |||||||||||||||||||||||
5 | ADD/ADHD | The genetic evidence for ADD/ADHD can be ignored but not argued away.

6 | Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum (ACC) | In most cases, it is not possible to know what caused an individual to have Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum (ACC) or another callosal disorder. However, research suggests that some possible causes may include chromosome errors, inherited genetic factors, prenatal infections or injuries, prenatal toxic exposures, structural blockage by cysts or other brain abnormalities, and metabolic disorders. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agenesis_of_the_corpus_callosum | |||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Alagille Syndrome | Alagille syndrome is an inherited condition in which bile builds up in the liver because there are too few bile ducts to drain the bile.

16 | Antiphosphilipid Syndrome | Antiphospholipid syndrome is a disorder characterized by an increased tendency to form abnormal blood clots (thromboses) that can block blood vessels. This clotting tendency is known as thrombophilia. In antiphospholipid syndrome, the thromboses can develop in nearly any blood vessel in the body. If a blood clot forms in the vessels in the brain, blood flow is impaired and can lead to stroke. Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disorder. Most cases of antiphospholipid syndrome are sporadic, which means they occur in people with no history of the disorder in their family. Rarely, the condition has been reported to run in families; however, it does not have a clear pattern of inheritance. Multiple genetic and environmental factors likely play a part in determining the risk of developing antiphospholipid syndrome. | https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/antiphospholipid-syndrome/#frequency | |||||||||||||||||||||||

18 | Arakawa Syndrome | Arakawa's syndrome II is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. This means the defective gene responsible for disorder is located on an autosome, and one copy of the defective gene is sufficient to cause the disorder when inherited from a parent who has the disorder. This disorder causes neurological problems, including intellectual disability, brain atrophy and ventricular dilation, myoclonus, hypotonia, and epilepsy.

27 | Autoimmune (Hashimoto) Thyroiditis | The inheritance pattern of Hashimoto thyroiditis is unclear because many genetic and environmental factors appear to be involved.
