Gene or syndrome | Affected protein | Inheritance | Additional features | Treatment |
---|---|---|---|---|
Transient NDM | ||||
6q24 abnormalities ZAC (PLAG1), HYMA1 implicated | Implicated proteins: pleomorphic adenoma gene‐like 1, hydatiform mole‐associated and imprinted transcript | Spontaneous, AD | Low birthweight, macroglossia, umbilical hernia | Insulin, relapsed cases might respond to sulfonylureas and other oral medications |
