TL;DR: Clinical, biochemical, and genetic features of eight patients with the autosomal recessive mitochondrial syndrome mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy were studied; nerve conduction and EMG studies were compatible with a sensorimotor neuropathy; quantitative EMG of two patients suggested a myogenic process.
Abstract: We studied the clinical, biochemical, and genetic features of eight patients with the autosomal recessive mitochondrial syndrome mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (MNGIE). MNGIE is clinically characterized by ophthalmoparesis, peripheral neuropathy, leukoencephalopathy, gastrointestinal symptoms (recurrent nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea) with intestinal dysmotility, and histologically abnormal mitochondria in muscle. Brain MRI scans were consistent with leukodystrophy in seven patients examined. Nerve conduction and EMG studies were compatible with a sensorimotor neuropathy; quantitative EMG of two patients suggested a myogenic process. Muscle mitochondrial enzyme analysis revealed a partial defect of cytochrome c oxidase activity in five patients; three had additional respiratory chain enzyme defects. Two patients had isolated complex I defects, and one had normal respiratory chain function. Southern blot analysis revealed multiple deletions of mitochondrial DNA in four of eight patients.

TL;DR: The evidence about the impact of hypoglycemia on patients with diabetes that has become available since the past reviews by the American Diabetes Association and The Endocrine Society is reviewed to provide guidance about how this new information should be incorporated into clinical practice.
Abstract: Objective: To review the evidence about the impact of hypoglycemia on patients with diabetes that has become available since the past reviews of this subject by the American Diabetes Association and The Endocrine Society and to provide guidance about how this new information should be incorporated into clinical practice. Participants: Five members of the American Diabetes Association and five members of The Endocrine Society with expertise in different aspects of hypoglycemia were invited by the Chair, who is a member of both, to participate in a planning conference call and a 2-day meeting that was also attended by staff from both organizations. Subsequent communications took place via e-mail and phone calls. The writing group consisted of those invitees who participated in the writing of the manuscript. The workgroup meeting was supported by educational grants to the American Diabetes Association from Lilly USA, LLC and Novo Nordisk and sponsorship to the American Diabetes Association from Sanofi.
