Dent disease is a rare X-linked recessive inherited renal tubular disorder characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria (LMWP), hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, and other clinical features, and can lead to progressive renal failure. It is primarily caused by mutations in the gene. This article reports the case of a 10-year-old male patient of Chinese descent who was incidentally found to have asymptomatic proteinuria during a routine health examination.

Recent improvements in cell-free DNA technology have enabled non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) to screen for fetal single-gene autosomal recessive conditions from maternal blood as early as the first trimester. This technique can determine the fetal risk for cystic fibrosis (CF) with a single blood sample from a pregnant person without the need for a partner sample, which is required for traditional carrier screening. A retrospective review of 100,106 consecutive general-risk pregnant patients who underwent CF carrier screening was completed.
