Using referral rates for genetic testing to determine the incidence of a rare disease: The minimal incidence of congenital hyperinsulinism in the UK is 1 in 28,389 [PDF]
ongenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a significant cause of hypoglycaemia in neonates and infants with the potential for permanent neurologic injury. Accurate calculations of the incidence of rare diseases such as CHI are important as they inform health ...

Molecular mechanisms of congenital hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a complex heterogeneous condition in which insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells is unregulated and inappropriate for the level of blood glucose. The inappropriate insulin secretion drives glucose into the insulin-sensitive tissues, such as the muscle, liver and adipose tissue, leading to severe hyperinsulinaemic

Congenital hyperinsulinsim: case report and review of literature
Neonatal hypoglycemia (NH) is one of the most common abnormalities encountered in the newborn. Hypoglycemia continues to be an important cause of morbidity in neonates and children.

Successful use of long acting octreotide in two cases with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and severe hypoglycemia [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Hyperinsulinism associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) can occur in about 50% of cases, causing hypoglycemia of variable severity. Parenteral use of octreotide may be indicated if unresponsive to diazoxide.

Variation in Glycemic Outcomes in Focal Forms of Congenital Hyperinsulinism - The UK Perspective [PDF]
Context: In focal congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI), localized clonal expansion of pancreatic β-cells causes excess insulin secretion and severe hypoglycemia. Surgery is curative, but not all lesions are amenable to surgery.
