Abstract:Objective To analyze the gene mutation of a family with maturity - onset diabetes of the young in Henan Prov-ince. Methods The clinical gene mutation of a family with maturity - onset diabetes of the young in Henan Province were ana-lyzed. Results A 15 year - old boy was referred to Department of Endocrinology for hyperglycemia for 3 months. The tests of OGTT,Insulin and C - peptide release tests showed he suffered from diabetes,but the insulin antibodies were all negative and no diabetic complication was found.
