Introduction-Aim: MODY;It is an autosomal dominant, rare type of diabetes that occurs in young people as a result of mutations of beta cell function and genes involved in insulin secretion. The cases may be misdiagnosed as Type1 and Type2 diabetes. Considering that MODY is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, the findings should be evaluated correctly. It is important to define the clinical-laboratory characteristics of diagnosis and follow-up of patients...

Introduction: Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia is one of the most common causes of severe and persistent hypoglycemia in neonates and children. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment prevent brain damage due to recurrent hypoglycemia. Genetic examination often can guide the treatment. The most common affected genes are the ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes, which encode the SUR1 and Kir6.2 KATP channels, respectively. Here, a neonate with a novel variant in AB...

Objective: Congenital Hyperinsulinism(CHI) is a clinically, genetically, and histologically heterogeneous disease. Turkey is a county with highly prevalent cases of severe CHI due to the high rate of consanguinity and recessively inherited KATP gene mutations. We herein evaluated the clinical characteristics, molecular genetic analysis, and follow-up of a large nationwide cohort of CHI from Turkey.Patients and method: Th...

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate demographic characteristics; clinical, laboratory, imaging features; and response to treatment of boys who were followed up and treated with the diagnosis of central precocious puberty (CPP) in Turkiye.Materials and Methods: The study was planned as a multicenter, retrospective study. Cases with a diagnosis of CPP, whose follow-up data were available were included. Patient...
