Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Hypoglycemia due to congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) is caused by mutations in 9 genes. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to correlate genotype with phenotype in 417 children with HI. METHODS: Mutation analysis was carried out for the ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel genes (ABCC8 and KCNJ11), GLUD1, and GCK with supplemental screening of rarer genes, HADH, UCP2, HNF4A, HNF1A, and SLC16A1. RESULTS:...
