The Most Common Monogenic Causes of Neonatal Diabetes: KCNJ11, ABCC8, INS, and 6q24

An On-Demand Webinar
 
Join us for an informative session on neonatal diabetes, where we'll discuss the most common causes: KCNJ11, ABCC8, INS, and 6q24. Learn about the inheritance patterns and typical features of these variants, as well as the range of neurocognitive outcomes in those with KATP channel variants. Most importantly, we'll explore the crucial role of early diagnosis in improving clinical outcomes. Don't miss this opportunity to expand your knowledge and stay up-to-date in the field of neonatal diabetes.
 
Medium: Video with PPT, eLearning
Activity Length: 33 minutes
Test Time: 3 minutes
 
This presentation was originally recorded at Celebrating Miracles and Milestones 2022: Monogenic Diabetes Professional Education on July 22, 2022.

Target Audience

This activity is designed for adult and pediatric endocrinologists, family practice and internal medicine physicians, pediatricians, adult and pediatric nurse practitioners, certified diabetes care and education specialists, pediatric nurses, and other healthcare professionals dedicated to providing high-quality care to patients with MDM.

Learning Objectives

After this activity, participants will be able to:

  • Evaluate the significance of studying individuals with rare disorders in advancing our understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms that have broader implications across various medical conditions, emphasizing the potential for identifying common molecular pathways and therapeutic targets;
  • Identify the most prevalent monogenic causes of neonatal/congenital diabetes;
  • Highlight mutations in the KATP channel that can be effectively managed with sulfonylureas as a targeted therapy, considering their impact on insulin secretion and potential long-term outcomes;
  • State the distinct treatment modalities, disease trajectories, and enhanced quality of life that result from an accurate diagnosis of patients with monogenic diabetes, emphasizing the importance of tailored management plans, improved glycemia, reduced complications, and potential opportunities for precision medicine interventions.

Commercial Support: This CME-certified activity has not requested or received any support or funding from commercial interests. This includes but is not limited to, pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers.
