Over the last decade our insight into the causes of neonatal diabetes has greatly expanded.
Neonatal diabetes was once considered a variant of type 1 diabetes that presented early in …

Diabetes mellitus most commonly occurs after the neonatal period and results from complex
interactions between both environmental and incompletely penetrant genetic factors …

There has been major progress in recent years uncovering the genetic causes of diabetes
presenting in the first year of life. Twenty genes have been identified to date. The most …

Eur J Clin Invest 2011; 41 (3): 323–333 Abstract Background The differential diagnosis of

In addition to the common types of diabetes mellitus, two major monogenic diabetes forms
exist. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) represents a heterogenous group of …

Neonatal Diabetes (ND) mellitus is a rare genetic disease (1 in 90,000 live births). It is
defined by the presence of severe hyperglycaemia associated with insufficient or no …

The discoveries of the genes responsible for rarely occurring transient and permanent
neonatal diabetes mellitus, and transgenic animal models to study them, are exciting …
