BACKGROUND: ABCC8 variants can cause hyperinsulinemia by activating or deactivating gene expression. This study used targeted exon sequencing to investigate genetic variants of ABCC8 and the associated phenotypic features in Chinese patients with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH). METHODS: We enrolled eight Chinese children with HH and analyzed their clinical characteristics, laboratory results, and genetic variations. RESULTS: The age at presentation among the patients ranged from neonates to 0...
