And this deficiency is called hemophilia A (or classic hemophilia).

这种缺乏症也称作血友病A（甲型血友病）或者经典血友病。

Alexei, the heir to the throne, had a life-threatening blood disease called hemophilia.

列克谢王位的继承人，他得血友病，这一种可能会致死的血液疾病。

Today, we know that the doctors had prescribed aspirin, a drug that worsens hemophilia.

今，我们知道那些医生开的处司匹林。这种药会让血友病恶化。

An insufficient concentration or decreased activity of any coagulation factor can cause hemophilia, except factor XII deficiency which is asymptomatic.

任何凝血因子的浓度不够或者活性降低都会引起血友病，一个例外缺乏因子XII的话，不会有相关症状出。

The youngest of five children, he was born with hemophilia (when blood doesn’t clot).

He needs the fluid drained, but because of his hemophilia, I could kill him trying to save him.

他需要排出液体，但由于他患有血友病，我可救他而杀他。

Treatment for hemophilia A and B are done with injections of the missing or nonfunctional clotting factor.

治疗血友病A和B的法通常注射那些缺失或失活的凝血因子。

For hemophilia A, desmopressin, also called DDAVP (1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin) is helpful for patients with mild, quantitative factor VIII deficiency.

对于血友病A，去氨加压素（DDAVP）有助于治疗轻症因子VIII数量缺乏。

Finally, it's best for individuals with hemophilia to avoid contact sports and medicines that promote bleeding, like aspirin.

最后对于血友病患者来说，最好避免接触性运动，不用促进血流的药物，如司匹林。

Believe it or not, this is a somewhat simplified version of the coagulation cascade; but, it contains all of the key parts needed to understand hemophilia.

总之，这就简化版的凝血级联反应，已经包含理解血友病病理所需的关键部分。

Also, vitamin K deficiency can cause hemophilia since vitamin K is needed by the liver to synthesize and release factors II, VII, IX, and X.

并且维生素K缺乏症也可引起血友病，因维生素K参与肝脏合成及释放因子II、VII、IX和X。

To confirm hemophilia A or B, tests to look at specific factor activities, and mutation testing of the genes encoding them, can be done.

确诊血友病A或B，可检测特定因子的凝血活性或进行基因诊断。

Disorders that are associated with mutations of X chromosome genes, like color blindness, or hemophilia, are often less severe in individuals with two X chromosomes.

与 X 染色体基因突变相关的疾病，如色盲或血友病，在具有两条 X 染色体的个体中通常不太严重。

Now, a mimic of hemophilia A is von Willebrand disease, which is an inherited problem with primary hemostasis caused by a deficiency of von Willebrand factor.

还有一种类血友病A，即血管性血友病，一种遗传性的初级止血障碍，由血管性血友病因子（vWF）缺乏引起。

In the family of disorders known as hemophilia, a patient can usually complete the first two steps of hemostasis just fine, but they can't make an effective fibrin clot.

在被称血友病的疾病家族中，病人通常可很好地完成止血的前两个步骤，但他们不能制造有效的纤维蛋白凝块。

Another common deficiency is deficiency of factor IX, called hemophilia B (which used to be called Christmas disease, named after the first patient who had it, not the holiday).

另一种常见的缺陷因子IX缺乏症，称作血友病B（乙型血友病），前也称作Christmas病，第一个被报道的病患命名，而不指圣诞节。

Signs and symptoms hemophilia A and B are nearly clinically identical, which makes sense since factors VIIIa and IXa work together in the coagulation cascade to activate factor X.

血友病A和B的体征和症状在临床上几乎相同，也说得通，因因子VIIIa和IXa在凝血级联反应中，共同作用激活因子X。

Diagnosis of hemophilia A and B usually starts with lab tests including a platelet count which is usually normal, a prothrombin (PT) time, and a partial thromboplastic (PTT) time.

血友病A和B的诊断通常进行实验检测，包括血小板计数（一般正常）、凝血酶原时间（PT），及部分凝血活酶时间（PTT）。

In most cases of hemophilia there is a decrease in the amount or function of one or more of the clotting factors that makes secondary hemostasis less effective and allows more bleeding to occur.

在大多数血友病中，都有一种或多种凝血因子在数量上减少或功能上减弱，使次级止血过程的功效下降，而出血更多。

Women with one mutated gene copy have a remaining healthy copy, so they don't get hemophilia unless X-chromosome inactivation turns off the normal copy in the majority of cells.

携带一个突变基因的女性还有一个健康的基因拷贝，所她们一般不会患血友病，除非X染色体失活使得大多数细胞中正常的基因拷贝沉默。
