Acute aortic dissection in a patient with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia associated with Juvenile Polyposis due to SMAD4 mutation: case report and literature review.
Review in Angiogenesis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveWe present a novel case of concurrent Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia-Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome (HHT-JP), resulting in a fatal aortic dissection. Given rarity of the case, we aimed to perform a comprehensive review of the existing literature to better characterize this clinical complication in this population.
methodsWe conducted a literature review on HHT-JP syndrome using PubMed, focusing on English-language articles published between 2010 and 2024, specifically case reports and small series. Search terms "Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia", "Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome" and "Juvenile Polyposis" were used. Exclusion criteria included population studies lacking detailed individual characteristics related to Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) or Juvenile Polyposis (JP). Duplicate articles were removed, and data were extracted on patient demographics, clinical presentations, diagnostic criteria (Curaçao criteria for HHT, Jass criteria for JP), treatments, and outcomes.
resultsFifty-six individuals with the MADH4 mutation met the inclusion criteria and were compared to our patient. The age range of the total cohort of fifty-six participants spanned from 6 to 66 years, with a distribution between men and women. The typical clinical presentation of HHT-JP was observed in most cases. Notably, only one patient from previous literature exhibited aortic dissection, aligning with our patient's presentation. Additionally, three other patients had aortic aneurysms. Musculoskeletal and other cardiovascular anomalies were also identified and described. DISCUSSION: While aortic aneurysms prevail in HHT-JP syndrome, aortic dissection cases are extremely rare. This case highlights the need for vigilant screening to identify aortic anomalies in this specific patient subset, emphasizing the severe complications associated with this syndrome combination.
