Dental extraction in hemophiliacs with acquired inhibitors is always a risky procedure, which often presents a lot of problems associated with bleeding. A known case of hemophilia A complicated with factor VIII inhibitors and having odontogenic infection was successfully managed by transfusion of factor VIII inhibitor bypass activity (FEIBA) and antihemophilic factor. Past medical history was significant for multiple factor VIII transfusions. Bethesda assay done to identify inhibitors revealed low titer factor VIII inhibitors. Extraction of the involved tooth was done after transfusion of FEIBA with low-dose protocols. Minimal bleeding was noted after extraction which was controlled by local measures. FEIBA was proven to be highly effective, and no side effects of the product were observed.

Introduction: Musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (mcEDS) is a rare autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder caused by systemic depletion of dermatan sulfate. Symptoms characteristic of mcEDS include multiple contractures, fragile skin with subcutaneous bleeding, and hypermobile joints, which suggest difficulty in perioperative management. However, safe surgical techniques and perioperative management of this disorder remain unknown because of its rarity.

Introduction: The clinical management of the inherited bleeding disorder von Willebrand disease (VWD) focuses on normalizing circulating levels of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and factor VIII (FVIII) to prevent or control bleeding events. The heterogeneous nature of VWD, however, complicates effective disease management and development of universal treatment guidelines.
Areas Covered: The current treatment modalities of VWD and their limitations are described and why this prompts the development of new treatment approaches.

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is the leading cause of vision loss due to an obstruction in the retinal venous system. While RVO is often linked to thrombotic tendencies and coagulation abnormalities, the exact role of coagulation traits in its development is not fully understood. This study aims to investigate the potential causal relationship between coagulation traits and the risk of RVO by analyzing publicly available genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics.

Abnormal base excision repair (BER) pathway and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) of RNA have been proved to be significantly related to age-related cataract (ARC) pathogenesis. However, the relationship between the Nei Endonuclease VIII-Like1 (NEIL1) gene (a representative DNA glycosylase of BER pathway) and its m6A modification remains unclear. Here, we showed that the expression of NEIL1 was decreased in the ARC anterior lens capsules and HO-stimulated SRA01/04 cells.
