It hass currently been diagnosed to 1,123,581,321 people in the last hundred years. It affects the blood and through it the brain and muscles. The disease is mostly isolated in Siberia and the off-coast island of Madagascar. Several years ago a cure was found by Dr. Mick Daire. In recent years, the cure was found to have a late blooming side-effect. This disease can be easily detected by several methods. First, cut off the patients arm, if they do not stop bleeding profusely, they have hemophilia. If they convulse and die, you probably cut too deep and should contact your lawyers. Other symptoms may include death on heavy contact with walls, severe bleeding, bruising at light touches, or being a Ginger . Other less well known symptoms include dementia and insanity. Many times, though hemophilia is not caught in time to prevent death. Aversion to sunlight is also normal as it can cause the victim to burn into ashes, as well as reveal their horribly dry skin. The cases of ginger hemophilia are defined by the victims intense addictions and lack of brain function.

Extractions: Related Resources Hematology Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Bleeding Disorders Hemophilia Thrombocytopenia What is hemophilia? Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding, or coagulation, disorder. Persons with hemophilia lack the ability to stop bleeding because of the low levels, or complete absence, of specific proteins, called "factors," in their blood that are necessary for clotting. Proper clotting of blood helps prevent excessive bleeding. There are several types of hemophilias, but the most common and well known include the following: In the US, there are about 20,000 persons who have hemophilia, and each year approximately 400 babies are born with the disease. What causes hemophilia? Hemophilia types A and B are inherited diseases passed on from a gene located on the X chromosome. Females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome. A female carrier of hemophilia has the hemophilia gene on one of her X chromosomes, and there is a 50 percent chance that she may pass the defective gene to her male offspring. Males who inherit the defective gene will develop hemophilia. Males with hemophilia do not pass the gene to their sons; however, they do pass the gene to their daughters.

People with hemophilia lack or have low levels of one of two blood-clotting substances, known as factor VIII and factor IX. As a result, they may bleed for a long time after an injury. They may also experience internal bleeding, especially in the joints. There are two types of hemophilia type A and type B. Hemophilia is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. About 17,000 people in the U.S. have the condition. People with hemophilia may have the following signs and symptoms: Joint pain and swelling, frequently in the knees and elbows

On this page: Hemophilia is a rare genetic blood clotting disorder that primarily affects males. People living with hemophilia do not have enough of, or are missing, one of the blood clotting proteins, known as factors, naturally found in blood. The body depends on these clotting factors to stop bleeding after injury and to promote healing. Fortunately, a full and active life is possible with proper physician-directed treatment. There are three types of hemophilia: A, B and C. Hemophilia A (also called classical hemophilia), in which factor VIII is not present in sufficient amounts or is missing Hemophilia B (also called Christmas disease), in which factor IX is not present in sufficient amounts or is missing

Extractions: Deficiency in coagulation factor VIII is the cause of haemophilia A. ICD D ICD OMIM ... MeSH Haemophilia A (also spelled hemophilia A ) is the most common form of haemophilia and is the second most common genetic disorder associated with serious bleeding , second only to von Willebrand's Disease. It is caused by a reduction in the amount or activity of factor VIII . This protein serves as a cofactor for factor IX in the activation of factor X in the coagulation cascade. The lack of this section of the coagulation cascade results in the formation of fibrin deficient clots which makes coagulation much more prolonged, and the clot more unstable. Haemophilia A is inherited as an X-linked recessive trait , and thus occurs in males and in homozygous females. However, mild haemophilia A has been described in heterozygous females, presumably due to extremely unfavourable lyonization (inactivation of the normal X chromosome in most of the cells). Approximately 30% of patients have no family history; their disease is presumably caused by new mutations
