Prevalence of FVIII inhibitors in severe haemophilia A patients: Effect of treatment and genetic factors in an Indian population
ConclusionThe overall prevalence of inhibitors in patients with severe haemophilia A is similar to that reported among patients receiving regular replacement therapy. The data from this study, limited by its retrospective and cross ‐sectional study design, would suggest that genetic rather than environmental are more likely to impact the development of inhibitors.

Treatment regimens and outcomes in severe and moderate haemophilia A in the UK: The THUNDER study
ConclusionsIncreasing ABR with age persists despite current prophylaxis regimens. SHA and MHA had similar ABR/AJBR and HJHS, leading to a suspicion that a subgroup of MHA may be relatively undertreated. More intensive prophylaxis may improve outcomes, but this requires further study. (Source: Haemophilia)
