This session is dedicated to the presentation of the International Recommendations on the evaluation and management of persistent hypoglycemia in neonates, infants, and children. The session will be held in Italian but the slides will be written in English. Persistent hypoglycemia in early life represents a significant clinical challenge due to its heterogeneous etiologies, the difficulty of recognition -particularly in neonates and young infants-and the risk of severe and permanent neurological injury if diagnosis and treatment are delayed. While guidance is available for the management of transient hypoglycemia in the immediate postnatal period, standardized recommendations for persistent and recurrent hypoglycemia [...]

More than 30 million people in Europe live with a rare disease today. Although rare diseases are often perceived as modern medical challenges, scientific research now confirms that they have affected humans for thousands of years.
This long history is illustrated by a recent study published in The New England Journal of Medicine, co-authored by Adrian F. Daly, Internist-Endocrinologist and Researcher at the CHU de Liège, Liège University, Belgium and Endo-ERN expert. The study reports the genetic diagnosis of a rare disease affecting growth in a family who lived more than 12,000 years ago, using advanced ancient [...]

Endo-ERN invites patients and families to take part in a new survey on transition of care, aimed at better understanding how young people with rare diseases experience the move between paediatric and adult healthcare services.
Transition is a critical period that can strongly influence long-term health outcomes and patient wellbeing. Through this survey, the Overarching ERN Transition Working Group seeks to capture real-life experiences from across Europe, ensuring that future improvements to transition pathways are informed directly by those who live through them.
About the survey
Available in 10 EU languages
