Lack of glibenclamide response in a case of permanent neonatal diabetes caused by incomplete inactivation of glucokinase.
Article in JIMD reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundHypoglycaemic drugs that close the KATP channel have been tested in patients with permanent neonatal diabetes due to glucokinase mutations (PNDM-GCK). From the results obtained, it has been suggested that this treatment may be beneficial in patients carrying GCK mutations with mild kinetic defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the kinetic analysis of glucokinase activity as a predictive factor for response to sulphonylureas in PNDM-GCK.
methodsThe clinical characteristics of two siblings with PNDM born to non-consanguineous parents are described. Mutation analysis of KCNJ11, INS and GCK genes was done by sequencing. A comprehensive functional characterisation of GCK mutation was undertaken. Glibenclamide treatment was assayed for 16 weeks in one child. Response to treatment was evaluated by means of fasting glycaemia, C-peptide and HbA1c levels.
resultsCompound heterozygous GCK mutations (p.Ile19Asn and p.Ser441Trp) were identified. Functional analysis of GCK(p.Ile19Asn) indicated that this mutant retained more than 70% of wild-type catalytic activity in vitro, with a slight increase of thermolability. This mutation did not impair the interaction with the glucokinase regulatory protein, and the enzymatic activity of the GCK(p.Ile19Asn) mutant is restored to wild-type levels in the presence of GCK allosteric activator LY2121260. However, glibenclamide treatment of the patient on a reduced dose of insulin did not reduce HbA1c levels, and C-peptide increased only very slightly.
conclusionHypoglycaemic drugs acting on the KATP channel might not be useful in the treatment of PNDM-GCK, even in patients carrying GCK mutations with mild kinetic defects.
