Objective: Gain-of-function (GOF) variants of KCNJ11 cause neonate diabetes and maturity-onset diabetes of the young (KCNJ11-MODY), while loss-of-function (LOF) variants lead to hyperinsulinemia hypoglycemia and subsequent diabetes. Given the limited research of KCNJ11-MODY, we aimed to analyse its phenotypic features and prevalence in Chinese patients with early-onset type 2 diabetes (EOD).
Design, Patients And Measurements: We performed next-generation sequencing on 679 Chinese EOD patients to screen for KCNJ11 exons variants.
Glucokinase variant-induced maturity-onset diabetes of the young (GCK-MODY) exhibits the unique clinical features of mild fasting hyperglycemia. However, formal studies of its glucose excursion pattern in daily life in comparison with those with or without other types of diabetes are lacking. We conducted a case-control study including 25 patients with GCK-MODY, 25 A1C-matched, drug-naive patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and 25 age-, BMI-, and sex-matched subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFew studies have investigated the dose-response relationship between exercise and weight control. This study aimed to assess the effects of different types of supervised exercise training on weight control and other metabolic outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and explore the dose-response relationship between exercise volume/duration and these outcomes. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched for studies between January 1980 and June 2019.
