Clinical characteristics, outcome, and predictors of neurological sequelae of persistent congenital hyperinsulinism: A single tertiary center experience

open access: yesPediatric Diabetes, 2021
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a heterogeneous disease with variable genetic etiology, histopathology, and clinical phenotype. This study aims to describe the clinical characteristics of persistent CHI and evaluate long‐term neurological outcome and

Management and appropriate use of diazoxide in infants and children with hyperinsulinism.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of hypoglycemia and the use of diazoxide have risen in the last decade. Diazoxide is the only FDA-approved pharmacologic treatment for neonatal hypoglycemia caused by hyperinsulinism (HI).

Activation of Protein Kinase A (PKA) signaling mitigates congenital hyperinsulinism associated hypoglycemia in the Sur1-/- mouse model.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
There is a significant unmet need for a safe and effective therapy for the treatment of children with congenital hyperinsulinism. We hypothesized that amplification of the glucagon signaling pathway could ameliorate hyperinsulinism associated ...

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

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Congenital 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 ...

Characterization of the zebrafish as a model of ATP-sensitive potassium channel hyperinsulinism

open access: yesBMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care
Introduction Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is the leading cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infants. Current models to study the most common and severe form of HI resulting from inactivating mutations in the ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) are

Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia and Growth Hormone Deficiency Secondary to 20p11 Deletion

open access: yesCase Reports in Endocrinology, 2023
Hypoglycemia is concerning for neurological complications in infants and children. Determining the cause of hypoglycemia is essential in providing appropriate treatment.

Diazoxide-responsive hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia caused by HNF4A gene mutations

open access: yes, 2010
Objective: The phenotype associated with heterozygous HNF4A gene mutations has recently been extended to include diazoxide responsive neonatal hypoglycemia in addition to maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

Real-world experience with the use of diazoxide among people living with congenital hyperinsulinism and their caregivers

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
IntroductionCongenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is a rare disease that causes severe hypoglycemia. Diazoxide is the first-line treatment; however, many individuals using diazoxide continue to experience hypoglycemia. Diazoxide is associated with side effects

The diagnosis and management of congenital and adult-onset hyperinsulinism (nesidioblastosis) – literature review

open access: yes, 2017
Congenital and adult-onset hyperinsulinism (CHI) must be taken under consideration in the differential diagnosis of hypoglycaemia symptoms with endogenous hyperinsulinism, especially in cases in which there was failure to find an insulinoma. Histological

Congenital Hyperinsulinism and Evolution to Sulfonylurearesponsive Diabetes Later in Life due to a Novel Homozygous p.L171F ABCC8 Mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is the most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infants and children. Recessive inactivating mutations in the ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes account for approximately 50% of all CHI cases.
