Case Report: The importance of genetic counseling for families with hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is the most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infancy. Genotype-phenotype correlations directly inform medical care for patients.

Non-coding cis-regulatory variants in HK1 cause congenital hyperinsulinism with variable disease severity [PDF]
Background We recently reported non-coding variants in a cis-regulatory element of the beta-cell disallowed gene hexokinase 1 (HK1) as a novel cause of congenital hyperinsulinism.

Variables associated with endogenous hyperinsulinism in hypoglycemia diagnosis. Could the 72-hour fasting test be shortened in low-risk patients? [PDF]
Background: The 72-hour fasting test remains the standard for the diagnosis of endogenous hyperinsulinism. We investigated which variables could identify patients at low risk for endogenous hyperinsulinism, in whom a shortening of the 72-hour fasting ...

Genetics of neonatal hyperinsulinism [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous entity. The clinical heterogeneity is manifested by severity ranging from extremely severe, life threatening disease to very mild clinical symptoms, which may even be difficult to identify.

Cardiometabolic Risk Assessment in a Cohort of Children and Adolescents Diagnosed with Hyperinsulinemia [PDF]
Background: Individuals with hyperinsulinemia may initially not meet any diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome, though displaying a higher risk of cardiovascular complications combined with obesity, diabetes, and hypertension.

A tale of two sisters – delayed diagnosis of genetic hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinism is the leading cause of persistent hypoglycaemia in infants and children; however, it is uncommon to be diagnosed in adulthood. We describe the cases of two sisters who presented with hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia aged 47 and
