Abstract
Background: Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a rare life-threatening disease characterised by persistent hypoglycaemia as a result of inappropriate insulin secretion, which can lead to irreversible neurological defects in infants.
Aim: To evaluate neurophysiological characteristics of central nervous system in children with congenital hyperinsulinism treated according to the international protocol in Russian Federation.
Materials and methods: Our retrospective, prospective cohort study included 73 patients who received treatment for CHI according to the current international protocol at different departments of the Almazov National Medical Research Centre from 2017 to 2022. All patients underwent a comprehensive examination, including electroencephalography (EEG).
Results: Among 73 patients with CHI, 35% (23) had focal form of the disease, 65% had non-focal form (49% (39) - diffuse form, 16% (11) - atypical form). All patients with focal form of CHI had a recovery as an outcome.Analysing the EEG data we found that paroxysmal activity was recorded in 23 patients (32%), 50 patients did not have paroxysmal activity (68%). Diffuse changes were observed in 47 patients (64%), whereas 26 patients (36%) were absent of it. By constructing Kaplan-Meier curves we found that the alpha rhythm is formed significantly (p=0.026) earlier in patients with a focal form of CHI.
Conclusion: CHI patients treated according to the international guidelines in Russian Federation show rather positive neurological outcome. We established that alpha rhythm earliest formation is associated with focal form of CHI.
期刊介绍:
Since 1955 the “Problems of Endocrinology” (or “Problemy Endocrinologii”) Journal publishes timely articles, balancing both clinical and experimental research, case reports, reviews and lectures on pressing problems of endocrinology. The Journal is aimed to the most topical issues of endocrinology: to chemical structure, biosynthesis and metabolism of hormones, the mechanism of their action at cellular and molecular level; pathogenesis and to clinic of the endocrine diseases, new methods of their diagnostics and treatment. The Journal: features original national and foreign research articles, reflecting world endocrinology development; issues thematic editions on specific areas; publishes chronicle of major international congress sessions and workshops on endocrinology, as well as state-of-the-art guidelines; is intended for scientists, endocrinologists diabetologists and specialists of allied trade, general practitioners, family physicians and pediatrics.
