The prevalence of clinically significant (P/LP) variants related to primary metabolic disease in this cohort was 6%. An additional 5.5% of participants had P/LP variants in ACMG secondary findings genes. Future studies should refine participant selection for genome sequencing to optimize its diagnos...

Nationwide cohorts from Japan and India show monogenic diabetes is present in a considerable proportion of young, non-obese individuals with diabetes. Clinical presentations are heterogeneous; notably, only up to ∼ 70% of cases had three-generation family history. These findings call for broader g...
