Therapies and outcomes of congenital hyperinsulinism‐induced hypoglycaemia
Congenital hyperinsulinism is a rare disease, but is the most frequent cause of persistent and severe hypoglycaemia in early childhood. Hypoglycaemia caused by excessive and dysregulated insulin secretion (hyperinsulinism) from disordered pancreatic β ...

The molecular mechanisms, diagnosis and management of congenital hyperinsulinism
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is the result of unregulated insulin secretion from the pancreatic β-cells leading to severe hypoglycaemia. In these patients it is important to make an accurate diagnosis and initiate the appropriate management so as to ...

Abstract Aims Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects up to 40% of children and adolescents with obesity and is linked to hyperinsulinism. However, the mechanisms underpinning this association remain unclear. The study aims to assess the three key determinants of hyperinsulinemia: insulin clearance, secretion, and sensitivity in paediatric patients with ...

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.

Congenital hyperinsulinism disorders: Genetic and clinical characteristics
Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is the most frequent cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infants and children. Delays in diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment contribute to a high risk of neurocognitive impairment.

Complexities in the medical management of hypoglycaemia due to congenital hyperinsulinism
Congenital Hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a rare disease of hypoglycaemia but is the most common form of recurrent and severe hypoglycaemia causing brain injury and neurodisability in children.
