Hyperinsulinism

New England Journal of Medicine, 1933
Hyperinsulinism is the term suggested by Harris 1 in 1924 in explanation of spontaneous hypoglycemia. If there is insufficient insulin, hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus develop; if insulin is excessive, hypoglycemia develops, with the characteristic symptoms seen after an overdose of insulin.

Hyperinsulinism in infancy

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1989
Abstract Five infants with persistent hypoglycaemia due to hyperinsulinism were reported. Provocative tests for insulin release were unhelpful. Diazoxide was useful in the treatment of three patients but many side‐effects were observed. These included petechial rash, hypertrichosis, acute renal failure, fluid retention and cardiac failure.

Neonatal Hyperinsulinism

Clinics in Perinatology, 1998
Hyperinsulinism is the most frequent cause of severe, persistent hypoglycemia in neonates and young infants. Timely diagnosis and aggressive treatment are necessary to prevent long-term neurologic sequelae. This article explores the latest advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology of this disorder at the molecular and cellular level.

Congenital hyperinsulinism

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2013
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a multifaceted disease and continues to be the most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infants. The purpose of the review is to highlight important recent developments regarding CHI.Several recent studies have highlighted the advances in medical genetics, imaging techniques, histological variety, and surgical

Octreotide in Hyperinsulinism

Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 1997
In a limited number of case reports in infants, octreotide raised the blood glucose concentrations and decreased glucose requirements sufficiently to avoid pancreatectomy. This response occurs in the presence of frequent feedings and diazoxide therapy, and lasts from 1 month to greater than 5 years.

Congenital hyperinsulinism

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2005
Congenital hyperinsulinism is a cause of persistent hypoglycaemia in the neonatal period. It is a heterogeneous disease with respect to clinical presentation, molecular biology, genetic aetiology and response to medical therapy. The clinical heterogeneity may range from severe life-threatening disease to very mild clinical symptoms.

Fetal hyperinsulinism in anencephaly

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1989
Insulin was measured in the blood collected in utero from three midtrimester anencephalic fetuses. The hyperinsulinism found could be due to an underutilization of glucose in the absence of most of the brain and could be responsible for the relatively normal growth in anencephaly despite the absence of the hypothalamohypophysial axis.

Hyperinsulinism of the newborn

Seminars in Perinatology, 2000
Neonatal hyperinsulinism (HI) is a clinical syndrome of pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction characterized by failure to suppress insulin secretion in the presence of hypoglycemia. Although rare, it is the most common cause for persistent hypoglycemia in the newborn period.

Obesity and Hyperinsulinism

New England Journal of Medicine, 1971
IN attempting to evolve a unitary concept to explain the metabolic and clinical aberrations of diabetes mellitus, one is hard put to find a single defect that will satisfy all the known facts.
