Abstract
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Osler-Weber-Rendu disease, is a rare disorder with a case prevalence as high as one in 5000, causing arteriovenous malformations in multiple organ systems. HHT is familial with autosomal dominant inheritance, with genetic testing allowing confirmation of the diagnosis in asymptomatic kindreds. Common clinical manifestations are epistaxis and intestinal lesions causing anemia and requiring transfusions. Pulmonary vascular malformations predispose to ischemic stroke and brain abscess and may cause dyspnea and cardiac failure. Brain vascular malformations can cause hemorrhagic stroke and seizures. Rarely, liver arteriovenous malformations can cause hepatic failure. A form of HHT can cause juvenile polyposis syndrome and colon cancer. Specialists in multiple fields may be called to care for one or more aspects of HHT, but few are familiar with evidence-based guidelines for HHT management or see a sufficient number of patients to gain experience with the unique characteristics of the disease. Primary care physicians and specialists are often unaware of the important manifestations of HHT in multiple systems and the thresholds for their screening and appropriate management. To improve familiarity, experience, and coordinated multisystem care for patients with HHT, the Cure HHT Foundation, which advocates for patients and families with this disease, has accredited 29 centers in North America with designated specialists for the evaluation and care of patients with HHT. Team assembly and current screening and management protocols are described as a model for evidence-based, multidisciplinary care in this disease.

Current Status of Clinical Diagnosis and Genetic Analysis of Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia in South Korea: Multicenter Case Series and a Systematic Review. Neurointervention 2019; 14:91-98.

Abstract
Purpose Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), a rare genetic vascular disorder, has been rarely reported in South Korea. We investigated the current prevalence and presenting patterns of genetically confirmed HHT in South Korea. Materials and Methods We defined HHT patients as those with proven mutations on known HHT-related genes (ENG, ACVRL1, SMAD4, and GDF2) or those fulfilling 3 or 4 of the Curaçao criteria. A computerized systematic search was performed in PubMed and KoreaMed using the following search term: (“hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia” AND “Korea”) OR (“Osler-Weber-Rendu” AND “Korea”). We also collected government health insurance data. HHT genetic testing results were collected from three tertiary hospitals in which the genetic tests were performed. We integrated patient data by analyzing each case to obtain the prevalence and presenting pattern of HHT in South Korea. Results We extracted 90 cases from 52 relevant articles from PubMed and KoreaMed. An additional 22 cases were identified from the three Korean tertiary hospitals after excluding seven cases that overlapped with those in the published articles. Finally, 112 HHT patients were identified (41 males and 71 females, aged 4–82 years [mean±standard deviation, 45.3±20.6 years]). The prevalence of HHT in South Korea is about 1 in 500,000, with an almost equal prevalence among men and women. Forty-nine patients underwent genetic testing, of whom 28 had HHT1 (ENG mutation) and 19 had HHT2 (ACVRL1 mutation); the other two patients were negative for ENG, ACVRL1, and SMAD4 mutations. Conclusion The prevalence of HHT is underestimated in Korea. The rate of phenotypic presentation seems to be similar to that found worldwide. Korean health insurance coverage is limited to representative genetic analysis to detect ENG and ACVRL1 mutations. Further genetic analyses to detect HHT3, HHT4, and other forms of HHT should be implemented.

Abstract
Phakomatoses, also known as neurocutaneous disorders, comprise a vast number of entities that predominantly affect structures originated from the ectoderm such as the central nervous system and the skin, but also the mesoderm, particularly the vascular system. Extensive literature exists about the most common phakomatoses, namely neurofibromatosis, tuberous sclerosis, von Hippel-Lindau and Sturge-Weber syndrome. However, recent developments in the understanding of the molecular underpinnings of less common phakomatoses have sparked interest in these disorders. In this article, we review the clinical features, current pathogenesis, and modern neuroimaging findings of melanophakomatoses, vascular phakomatoses, and other rare neurocutaneous syndromes that may also include tissue overgrowth or neoplastic predisposition.

Abstract
Ataxia is a neurodegenerative disease resulting from brainstem, cerebellar, and/or spinocerebellar tracts impairments. Symptoms onset could vary widely from childhood to late-adulthood. Autosomal cerebellar ataxias are considered as one of the most complex group in neurogenetics. In addition to their genetic heterogeneity, there is an important phenotypic variability in the expression of cerebellar impairment, complicating the genetic mutation research. A pattern recognition approach using brain MRI measures of atrophy, hyperintensities and iron-induced hypointensity of the dentate nuclei, could be therefore helpful in guiding genetic research. This review will discuss a pattern recognition approach that, associated with the age at disease onset, and clinical manifestations, may help neuroradiologists differentiate the most frequent profiles of ataxia.

CLINICAL PSYCHOPHARMACOLOGY AND NEUROSCIENCE 2017; 15:53-58.

Abstract
Objective CDKN2B-AS1 polymorphisms were shown to associate with the risk of stroke in European. The goal of this study was to evaluate the contribution of CDKN2B-AS1 rs1333049 to the risk of hemorrhagic stroke (HS) and brain tumor (BT) in Han Chinese. Methods A total of 142 HSs, 115 BTs, and 494 controls were included in the current association study. The genotyping test was performed using the melting temperature shift method. Results We failed to validate the association of CDKN2B-AS1 rs1333049 with the risk of brain disease. Significantly higher levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (p=0.027), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (p<0.001) and total cholesterol (TC) (p<0.001) were found in HSs in the genotype GG/GC carriers, but not the genotype CC carriers (p>0.05). The meta-analysis of 10 studies among 133,993 individuals concluded that rs1333049 of CDKN2B-AS1 gene was likely to increase a 16% incidence rate of cerebrovascular disease (CD) among various populations (odds ratio 1.16, 95% confidence interval 1.08–1.25; p<0.0001, random-effect method). Conclusion Our case-control study identified rs1333049 genotypes showed different association with the concentration of the LDL-C, HDL-C and TC in the HS patients. Meta-analysis supported the association between rs1333049 and CD risk in various populations, although we were unable to observe association between rs1333049 and the risk of HSs in Han Chinese.
