We set out to characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in the recently delineated KDM2B‐associated neurodevelopmental disorder. We observe a highly penetrant CxxC domain‐related phenotype with distinct facial features supported by GestaltMatcher. In contrast, our findings point to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance of loss‐of‐function ...

Rapid intraoperative insulin assay: a novel method to differentiate insulinoma from nesidioblastosis in the pediatric patient [PDF]
Introduction: Hyperinsulinism is the most common cause of recurrent and persistent hypoglycemia in infancy and childhood. Causes can include nesidioblastosis, pancreatic islet cell tumors such as insulinoma, and associations with multiple endocrine ...

ABSTRACT FOXA2 (hepatocyte nuclear factor‐3β, HNF‐3β) encodes a transcriptional activator involved in early embryogenesis, particularly in the patterning and differentiation of midline structures such as the neural tube, foregut, and pituitary gland. Its role in human pathogenesis was first suspected when patients with deletion of chromosome 20p11.2 ...

Hyperinsulinism in short-chain L-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency reveals the importance of beta-oxidation in insulin secretion [PDF]
A female infant of nonconsanguineous Indian parents presented at 4 months with a hypoglycemic convulsion. Further episodes of hypoketotic hypoglycemia were associated with inappropriately elevated plasma insulin concentrations.

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.
