Long term mortality of mothers and fathers after pre-eclampsia: population based cohort study.

TL;DR: Genetic factors that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease may also be linked to pre-eclampsia, which occurs in 3-5% of pregnancies and is compatible with maternal genes for thrombophilia having an effect on therisk of pre- eClampsia and of death from cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessing the phenotypic effects in the general population of rare variants in genes for a dominant Mendelian form of diabetes

TL;DR: Accurate estimates of variant effect sizes from population-based sequencing are needed to avoid falsely predicting a substantial fraction of individuals as being at risk for MODY or other Mendelian diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effectiveness and safety of long-term treatment with sulfonylureas in patients with neonatal diabetes due to KCNJ11 mutations: an international cohort study.

Pamela Bowman, +137 more
TL;DR: Ten-year multicentre follow-up study of a large international cohort of patients with KCNJ11 permanent neonatal diabetes to address the key questions relating to long-term efficacy and safety of sulfonylureas in these patients, with main outcomes of interest sulfONYlurea failure, defined as permanent reintroduction of daily insulin, and metabolic control, specifically HbA1c and sulfonyLurea dose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exome sequencing and genetic testing for MODY.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that exome sequencing can improve molecular diagnostics of MODY when used as a complement to Sanger sequencing, however, improvements will be needed, especially concerning coverage, before the full potential of exome Sequencing can be realized.
