Syndromic Forms of Hyperinsulinaemic Hypoglycaemia A 15-year follow-up Study [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (HH) is one of the commonest causes of hypoglycaemia in children. The molecular basis includes defects in pathways that regulate insulin release.

Estudio PET-TC con 18F-fluoro-L-DOPA combinado con el análisis genético para la optimización de la clasificación y tratamiento de un niño con hiperinsulinismo congénito grave [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is the most common cause of persistent hypoglycaemia in infancy. The differential diagnosis between focal and diffuse forms of CHI is of great importance when planning surgery. The aim of this article is to

WMHS is an effective treatment option for maintaining euglycemia in patients with activitating AKT2 mutations. Key Clinical Message The gain‐of‐function AKT2 c.49G>A variant causes hypoketotic hypoglycemia with variable associated features. Due to lack of effective medications, treatment is primarily supportive.

Automatic Tissue Segmentation with Deep Learning in Patients with Congenital or Acquired Distortion of Brain Anatomy [PDF]
Brains with complex distortion of cerebral anatomy present several challenges to automatic tissue segmentation methods of T1-weighted MR images. First, the very high variability in the morphology of the tissues can be incompatible with the prior knowledge embedded within the algorithms.

Postbariatric surgery hypoglycemia: Nutritional, pharmacological and surgical perspectives
Abstract Post‐bariatric hypoglycaemia (PBH) is a metabolic complication of bariatric surgery (BS), consisting of low post‐prandial glucose levels in patients having undergone bariatric procedures. While BS is currently the most effective and relatively safe treatment for obesity and its complications, the development of PBH can significantly impact ...

Clinical practice guidelines for congenital hyperinsulinism
Congenital hyperinsulinism is a rare condition, and following recent advances in diagnosis and treatment, it was considered necessary to formulate evidence-based clinical practice guidelines reflecting the most recent progress, to guide the practice of neonatologists, pediatric endocrinologists, general pediatricians, and pediatric surgeons.

Congenital hyperinsulinism: current trends in diagnosis and therapy [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is an inappropriate insulin secretion by the pancreatic β-cells secondary to various genetic disorders. The incidence is estimated at 1/50, 000 live births, but it may be as high as 1/2, 500 in countries with substantial ...
