“…Some forms of MODY have distinct clinical features (eg, HNF1B âMODY is associated with renal malformations, pancreatic atrophy, genital malformations and abnormal liver function tests); however, the majority are clinically indistinguishable without genetic testing. Some subtypes of MODY ( HNF1A , HNF4A , KCNJ11 , and ABCC8 ) can be treated with sulfonylureas, which are more costâeffective, and improve clinical outcomes when compared to insulin therapy (lower risk of severe hypoglycemia, improved glycemic control, and greater quality of life) . Furthermore, individuals with MODY do not require screening for other autoimmune conditions associated with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).…”
