Pancreatic Islet Cell Hormones: Secretion, Function, and Diabetes Therapy
The pancreatic islets, composed of α, β, δ, ε, and PP cells, play a central role in maintaining glucose homeostasis. This review examines the mechanisms of islet hormone secretion and their functional crosstalk networks, alongside the pathophysiology of diabetes driven by hormonal dysregulation.

Sex‐specific white matter alterations in children exposed to high pregestational BMI
Abstract Objective This study investigated whether exposure to high pregestational BMI (≥ 25 kg/m2) is associated with alterations in white matter microstructure in early childhood, explored sex‐specific effects, and examined associations with cognitive performance. Methods A total of 90 children from the Alberta Pregnancy Outcomes and Nutrition (APrON)

ABSTRACT Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is increasingly used although not officially registered for the management of people living with liver glycogen storage diseases (GSDs). The aims of this study were twofold: (a) to investigate the current experiences of healthcare providers (HCPs), patients, and caregivers using CGM to monitor glucose ...

Seguimento clínico de dois pacientes brasileiros com MODY-glicoquinase (MODY2) e descrição de uma nova mutação [PDF]
Mutations in the glucokinase gene (GCK) account for many cases of monogenic diabetes featuring maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2 (MODY2). The clinical pattern of this form of hyperglycemia is rather stable, with a slight elevation in blood ...

Congenital Hyperinsulinism: Diagnosis and Treatment Update
Pancreatic β-cells are finely tuned to secrete insulin so that plasma glucose levels are maintained within a narrow physiological range (3.5-5.5 mmol/L). Hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (HH) is the inappropriate secretion of insulin in the presence of low plasma glucose levels and leads to severe and persistent hypoglycaemia in neonates and children ...
