Abstract
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a grouping of monogenic disorders. It is characterized by dominantly inherited, non-insulin-dependent diabetes. MODY is relatively rare, encompassing up to 3.5% in those diagnosed under 30 years of age. Specific types are most commonly treated with sulfonylurea, particularly those identified as HNF4A-MODY and HNF1A-MODY. HNF1B-MODY is another type that is most frequently managed with insulin therapy but lacks a defined precision treatment. We present an 18-year-old, non-obese female patient diagnosed with HNF1B-MODY. She displays complete gene deletion, a renal cyst, and hypomagnesemia. Her treatment plan includes both long- and short-acting insulin, though she frequently encountered hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Semaglutide, a GLP-1RA, was administered weekly over 4 months. The patient's glucose level was continuously tracked using Dexcom's Continuous Glucose Monitoring system. The data suggested a notable improvement in her condition: time-in-range (TIR) increased from 70% to 88%, with some days achieving 100%, and the frequency of hypoglycemic episodes, indicated by time-below-range values, fell from 5% to 1%. The time-above-range values also dropped from 25% to 10%, and her HbA1c levels declined from 7% to 5.6%. During the semaglutide therapy, we were able to discontinue her insulin treatment. Additionally, her body mass index (BMI) was reduced from 24.1 to 20.1 kg/m2. However, the semaglutide treatment was halted after 4 months due to side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and reduced appetite. Other contributing factors included exam stress and a COVID-19 infection, which forced a switch back to insulin. Her last recorded HbA1c level under exclusive insulin therapy rose to 7.1%, and her BMI increased to 24.9 kg/m2. In conclusion, semaglutide could potentially replace insulin to improve glucose variability, TIR, and HbA1c in patients with HNF1B-MODY. However, more extensive studies are required to confirm its long-term safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) describes a group of non-autoimmune forms of diabetes that are characterized by mostly autosomal dominant, monogenic mutations resulting in decreased beta cell function in the pancreas. MODY accounts for roughly 1% to 5% of diabetes cases, and the optimal treatment for each MODY depends on the causative mutation. This article provides a review of MODY to aid providers with knowing what aspects of the history and physical exam should prompt further investigation for this group of conditions.

Abstract
Background Beta-cell monogenic forms of diabetes are the area of diabetes care with the strongest support for precision medicine. We reviewed treatment of hyperglycemia in GCK-related hyperglycemia, HNF1A-HNF4A- and HNF1B-diabetes, Mitochondrial diabetes (MD) due to m.3243A>G variant, 6q24-transient neonatal diabetes (TND) and SLC19A2-diabetes. Methods Systematic reviews with data from PubMed, MEDLINE and Embase were performed for the different subtypes. Individual and group level data was extracted for glycemic outcomes in individuals with genetically confirmed monogenic diabetes. Results 147 studies met inclusion criteria with only six experimental studies and the rest being single case reports or cohort studies. Most studies had moderate or serious risk of bias.For GCK-related hyperglycemia, six studies (N=35) showed no deterioration in HbA1c on discontinuing glucose lowering therapy. A randomized trial (n=18 per group) showed that sulfonylureas (SU) were more effective in HNF1A-diabetes than in type 2 diabetes, and cohort and case studies supported SU effectiveness in lowering HbA1c. Two crossover trials (n=15 and n=16) suggested glinides and GLP-1 receptor agonists might be used in place of SU. Evidence for HNF4A-diabetes was limited. While some patients with HNF1B-diabetes (n=301) and MD (n=250) were treated with oral agents, most were on insulin. There was some support for the use of oral agents after relapse in 6q24-TND, and for thiamine improving glycemic control and reducing insulin requirement in SLC19A2-diabetes (less than half achieved insulin-independency). Conclusion There is limited evidence to guide the treatment in monogenic diabetes with most studies being non-randomized and small. The data supports: no treatment in GCK-related hyperglycemia; SU for HNF1A-diabetes. Further evidence is needed to examine the optimum treatment in monogenic subtypes.

Abstract
Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) is a rare form of diabetes which affects between 1% and 5% of diagnosed diabetes cases. Clinical characterizations of MODY include onset of diabetes at an early age (before the age of 30), autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, impaired glucose-induced secretion of insulin, and hyperglycemia. Presently, 14 MODY subtypes have been identified. Within these subtypes are several mutations which contribute to the different MODY phenotypes. Despite the identification of these 14 subtypes, MODY is often misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus due to an overlap in clinical features, high cost and limited availability of genetic testing, and unfamiliarity with MODY outside of the medical profession. The primary aim of this review is to investigate the genetic characterization of the MODY subtypes. Additionally, this review will elucidate the link between the genetics, function, and clinical manifestations of MODY in each of the 14 subtypes. In providing this knowledge, we hope to assist in the accurate diagnosis of MODY patients and, subsequently, in ensuring they receive appropriate treatment.

Abstract
AIMS Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 5 (MODY5), a rare disease, is very easy to be misdiagnosed as type 2 diabetes. To get better understanding of the disease, we analyzed the clinical characteristics and gene mutations of MODY5. METHODS PubMed, Cochrane, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang were searched with the following search terms: "MODY5" OR "HNF1B maturity-onset diabetes of the young" OR "maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 5" OR "renal cysts and diabetes syndrome". Clinical characteristics and gene mutations of MODY5 were analyzed. The demography, clinical characteristics, and blood indicators of patients were described utilizing simple summary statistics. Variables were analyzed by t-test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, and Fisher exact test. Spearman's correlation analysis was used for bi-variate analysis. All tests were two-sided, and a p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Statistical analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 26 for Windows (SPSS). RESULTS A total of 48 literatures were included in this study, including 61 eligible patients and 4 different mutations. Of the 39 patients with available body weight index, 15 (38.46%) were underweight, 21 (53.85%) were normal weight and 3 (7.69%) were overweight or obese. Of the 38 patients with available family history, 25 (65.79%) reported a family history of diabetes. Of the 34 patients with available age of diabetes diagnosis, the median age of diabetes diagnosis was 16.00 years old and 88.24% (30/34) of patients were under 25 years old when they were first diagnosed with diabetes. Renal cysts were presented in 72.41%, hypomagnesemia in 91.67%, and pancreatic dysplasia in 71.88% of the patients. Patients with hepatocyte nuclear factor 1B (HNF1B) deletion had lower serum magnesium, serum creatinine, and higher eGFR than patients with other gene mutations, and the difference was statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS The young onset of diabetes with low or normal BMI, renal cysts, hypomagnesemia, and pancreatic dysplasia should be recommended to genetic testing in order to differentiate MODY5 from other types of diabetes earlier.

Abstract
Monogenic mutations of the hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox A maturity onset diabetes of the young (HNF1A-MODY) is characterized by early onset, typically before the age of 25 years. Patients are often not clinically recognized; however, the identification of HNF1A-MODY patients is crucial because they require different antihyperglycemic medical treatment than patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus. We describe two adult patients with monogenic diabetes, both identified as HNF1A-MODY, genetically c.815G>A, p.Arg272His and c675delC, p.Ser225Argfs*8, respectively. They were misdiagnosed as having type 1 diabetes mellitus, and consequently, initiating insulin therapy led to hypoglycemia and unstable blood glucose control. Usually, sulfonylureas represent the basis of antidiabetic treatment in patients with HNF1A-MODY; however, all medical personnel involved in diabetes care should be aware of monogenic diabetes mellitus and the possibilities for genetic testing. The patients observed have shown the necessity of the identification and appropriate genetic diagnosis of HNF1A-MODY in order to discontinue insulin therapy and to initiate adjusted diabetes management.
