“…In terms of the prognosis for the BMPR2 mutation carriers, a meta-analysis study demonstrated that all-cause mortality and lung transplant-free survival were worse in the BMPR2 mutation carriers compared with the non-carriers, especially among younger patients at diagnosis, 2 while our previous report demonstrated that in patients who needed PGI 2 infusion owing to severe clinical conditions, BMPR2 mutation carriers showed a better prognosis than non-carriers. 18 These findings may raise the possibility that the RNF213 p.Arg4810Lys variant, which is identified mainly in the East Asian population, may play an important role in the poorer outcomes of the BMPR2 mutation non-carriers, demonstrated in our previous study. 18 Importantly, our findings demonstrated that BMPR2-associated and RNF213 p.Arg4810Lys variant-associated PAH have almost similar phenotypes, as observed in our pathological findings, but the underlying mechanisms should be quite different, i.e., the genetic heterogeneity in PAH.…”

“…18 These findings may raise the possibility that the RNF213 p.Arg4810Lys variant, which is identified mainly in the East Asian population, may play an important role in the poorer outcomes of the BMPR2 mutation non-carriers, demonstrated in our previous study. 18 Importantly, our findings demonstrated that BMPR2-associated and RNF213 p.Arg4810Lys variant-associated PAH have almost similar phenotypes, as observed in our pathological findings, but the underlying mechanisms should be quite different, i.e., the genetic heterogeneity in PAH. Furthermore, our Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that the event-free rate since the diagnosis of PAH was significantly poorer in the RNF213 p.Arg4810Lys variant carriers compared with the carriers with other rare RNF213 variants, suggesting the p.Arg4810Lys variant is different from any other rare RNF213 variant and should lead to specific mechanisms in the underlying RNF213-signaling pathway.…”

“…Then, the full text of each of the remaining 42 articles was retrieved for further review to determine whether they met the predetermined criteria. Finally, 17 papers were identified and included in the present study [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24].…”

“…All other cohorts enrolled familial cases to a similar degree (6 to 22%). The overall prevalence of BMPR2 mutations in Korean IPAH patients was 22%, which is slightly higher than observed in Chinese and lower than in Japanese cohorts (Fig 2) [19,22,24,28]. Data from Asian populations are limited, and the prevalence of BMPR2 mutation differs between Japanese (36-41%) and Chinese (16-29%) studies (Fig 2) [19,25,27,29].…”
