Abstract
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a condition characterised by severe and recurrent hypoglycaemia in infants and young children caused by inappropriate insulin over-secretion. CHI is of heterogeneous aetiology with a significant genetic component and is often unresponsive to standard medical therapy options. The treatment of CHI can be multifaceted and complex, requiring multidisciplinary input. It is important to manage hypoglycaemia in CHI promptly as the risk of long-term neurodisability arising from neuroglycopaenia is high. The UK CHI consensus on the practice and management of CHI was developed to optimise and harmonise clinical management of patients in centres specialising in CHI as well as in non-specialist centres engaged in collaborative, networked models of care. Using current best practice and a consensus approach, it provides guidance and practical advice in the domains of diagnosis, clinical assessment and treatment to mitigate hypoglycaemia risk and improve long term outcomes for health and well-being.

Abstract
Kabuki syndrome is a congenital condition characterized by a set of facial dysmorphic features that often help the clinician to suspect the diagnosis. However, more insidious symptoms can rarely occur, such as manifestations of hypoglycemia in newborns with congenital hyperinsulinism hypoglycemia, especially when a variant of the KDM6A gene is found. In those cases, a treatment with diazoxide can be started and can be replaced with lanreotide if a satisfying glycemic control is not achieved. We report the case of a female patient born at 37 weeks of gestational age, without any obvious facial dysmorphic features, after a non-complicated pregnancy, that presented with feeding difficulties, drowsiness, and irritability revealing a hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. Further testing at 6 months old found a KDM6A mutation. The patient was initially treated by diazoxide alone, but its dosage had to be lowered because of the occurrence of treatment side effects, and lanreotide had been added to maintain acceptable blood sugar levels. A congenital hyperinsulinemia hypoglycemia revealed heterozygous truncating variant in the KDM6A gene, also known as X-linked Kabuki syndrome in a newborn. In cases of neonatal hypoglycemia, the first-line therapy is diazoxide. Our report shows that analogues of somatostatin such as lanreotide should be considered if the diazoxide regimen is not tolerated.

Abstract
Congenital hyperinsulinism (HI), a beta cell disorder most commonly caused by inactivating mutations of beta cell KATP channels, results in dysregulated insulin secretion and persistent hypoglycemia. Children with KATP-HI are unresponsive to diazoxide, the only FDA-approved drug for HI, and utility of octreotide, the second line therapy, is limited because of poor efficacy, desensitization, and somatostatin receptor type 2 (SST2)-mediated side effects. Selective targeting of SST5, an SST receptor associated with potent insulin secretion suppression, presents a new avenue for HI therapy. Here, we determined that CRN02481, a highly selective nonpeptide SST5 agonist, significantly decreased basal and amino acid-stimulated insulin secretion in both Sur1-/- (a model for KATP-HI) and wild type mouse islets. Oral administration of CRN02481 significantly increased fasting glucose and prevented fasting hypoglycemia compared to vehicle in Sur1-/- mice. During a glucose tolerance test, CRN02481 significantly increased glucose excursion in both WT and Sur1-/- mice compared to control. CRN02481 also reduced glucose- and tolbutamide-stimulated insulin secretion from healthy, control human islets similar to the effects observed with SS14 and peptide somatostatin analogs. Moreover, CRN02481 significantly decreased glucose- and amino acid-stimulated insulin secretion in islets from two infants with KATP-HI and one with Beckwith-Weideman Syndrome-HI. Taken together, these data demonstrate that a potent and selective SST5 agonist effectively prevents fasting hypoglycemia and suppresses insulin secretion not only in a KATP-HI mouse model, but also in healthy human islets and islets from HI patients.

Abstract
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI), although a rare disease, is an important cause of severe hypoglycemia in early infancy and childhood, causing preventable morbidity and mortality. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment is necessary to prevent hypoglycaemia mediated brain damage. At present, the medical treatment of CHI is limited to diazoxide as first line and synthetic somatostatin receptor ligands (SRLs) as second line options; therefore understanding somatostatin biology and treatment perspectives is important. Under healthy conditions, somatostatin secreted from pancreatic islet δ-cells reduces insulin release through somatostatin receptor induced cAMP-mediated downregulation and paracrine inhibition of β- cells. Several SRLs with extended duration of action are now commercially available and are being used off-label in CHI patients. Efficacy remains variable with the present generation of SRLs, with treatment effect often being compromised by loss of initial response and adverse effects such as bowel ischaemia and hepatobiliary dysfunction. In this review we have addressed the biology of the somatostatin system contexualised to CHI. We have discussed the clinical use, limitations, and complications of somatostatin agonists and new and emerging therapies for CHI.

Abstract
Pasireotide, a novel multireceptor-targeted somatostatin receptor ligand (SRL) is characterized by a higher affinity to somatostatin receptor type 5 than type 2, unlike first-generation SRLs. Because of the broader binding profile, pasireotide has been suggested to have a greater clinical efficacy in acromegaly than first-generation SRLs and to be efficacious in Cushing's disease. The consequence of this binding profile is the increased blood glucose level in some patients. This results from the inhibition of both insulin secretion and the incretin effect and only a modest suppression of glucagon. A monthly intramuscular formulation of long-acting release pasireotide has been approved for both acromegaly and Cushing's disease treatment. This review presents data on the efficacy and safety of pasireotide treatment mostly in patients with acromegaly and Cushing's disease. Moreover, other possible therapeutic applications of pasireotide are mentioned.

Abstract
Congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) is a rare disease characterized by an unregulated insulin release, leading to hypoglycaemia. It is the most frequent cause of persistent and severe hypoglycaemia in the neonatal period and early childhood. Mutations in 16 different key genes (ABCC8, KCNJ11, GLUD1, GCK, HADH, SLC16A1, UCP2, HNF4A, HNF1A, HK1, KCNQ1, CACNA1D, FOXA2, EIF2S3, PGM1 and PMM2) that are involved in regulating the insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells have been described to be responsible for the underlying molecular mechanisms of CHI. CHI can also be associated with specific syndromes and can be secondary to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), maternal diabetes, birth asphyxia, etc. It is important to diagnose and promptly initiate appropriate management as untreated hypoglycaemia can be associated with significant neurodisability. CHI can be histopathologically classified into diffuse, focal and atypical forms. Advances in molecular genetics, imaging techniques (18F-fluoro-l-dihydroxyphenylalanine positron emission tomography/computed tomography scanning), novel medical therapies and surgical advances (laparoscopic pancreatectomy) have changed the management and improved the outcome of patients with CHI. This review article provides an overview of the background, clinical presentation, diagnosis, molecular genetics and therapy for children with different forms of CHI.
