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 ...

Congenital Hyperinsulinism: A Novel Mutation in the KCNJ11 Gene
Introduction Hyperinsulinism is the most common cause of both transient and persistent hypoglycemia in the neonatal period. Hyperinsulinism due to mutations in the ATP-sensitive potassium channel encoded by the KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes cause the most ...

Siblings With Congenital Hyperinsulinism From Possible Parental Gonadal Mosaicism
Congenital hyperinsulinism is the most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in early infancy. Mutations in the gene for heterozygous hepatocyte nuclear transcription factor 4-alpha () account for approximately 5% of cases and are inherited in an ...

Genotype–Phenotype Spectrum of Non‐Syndromic Monogenic Obesity in a National Paediatric Cohort
ABSTRACT Objective Non‐syndromic monogenic obesity, caused by defects in the leptin‐melanocortin pathway, presents with early‐onset severe obesity and hyperphagia, but genotype–phenotype and metabolic correlations across different genetic forms remain unclear.

Congenital hyperinsulinism and mosaic abnormalities of the ploidy.
BACKGROUND: Congenital hyperinsulinism and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome both lead to beta islet hyperplasia and neonatal hypoglycaemia. They may be related to complex genetic/epigenetic abnormalities of the imprinted 11p15 region.

Hypoglycemia in CDG patients due to PMM2 mutations: Follow up on hyperinsulinemic patients
Background Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2‐CDG) is the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG). Hypoglycemia has been reported in various CDG including PMM2‐CDG.
