About 60% of patients with JPS have pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) in&nbsp;<em>SMAD4<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>BMPR1A<\/em>, whereas 40% have no evident PGVs. The primary outcome of this systemic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the reported incidence of gastric cancer (GC) in JPS. The secondary outcome was to study the occurrence of GC in tested patients with or without PGVs as well as in patients who had not undergone germline genetic testing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The study of patients with JPS included 637 participants with a median age of 42.5 years (range, 15-57.6).

Patients with&nbsp;<em>SMAD4<\/em>&nbsp;PGV had a pooled GC occurrence of 10.1% (95% CI, 3.2%-16.8%; I2, 54.7%). In patients without identifiable PGVs, there were no incidents of GC reported.

Only one patient who was a carrier for&nbsp;<em>BMPR1A<\/em>&nbsp;PGV had GC.
