The Focal Form of Persistent Hyperinsulinemic Hypoglycemia of Infancy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Paternal mutation of ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) channel genes and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the 11p15 region including the maternal alleles of ABCC8, IGF2, and CDKN1C characterize the focal form of persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (FoPHHI). We aimed to understand the actual nature of FoPHHI in comparison with insulinoma. In FoPHHI, the lesion consists in clusters of beta-cells surrounded by non-beta-cells. Compared with adjacent islets, proinsulin mRNA is similar and proinsulin production higher (P < or = 0.02), indicating regulation at a translational level, with slightly lower insulin stock and lower ABCC8 peptide labeling (P<0.05). Insulinomas, composed of beta-cell nests or cords, have similar proinsulin mRNA compared with adjacent islets, highly variable proinsulin production, lower insulin stock (P < or = 0.02), and higher ABCC8 peptide labeling (P<0.05). Proinsulin mRNA is lower than in FoPHHI (P<0.001). Islets adjacent to FoPHHI appear to be resting, in contrast to those adjacent to insulinomas, evidencing intrapancreatic regulation of islet beta-cell activity. IGF2 peptide is present inside and outside both lesions, but IGF2 mRNA is restricted to the lesions. The 11p15 LOH and absence of CDKN1C peptide staining are demonstrated in all FoPHHI but also in three of eight insulinomas. Despite some molecular similarities, FoPHHI is thus fundamentally different from insulinoma.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
