Doctors and nurses from general outpatient and emergency department usually lack the treatment experience of hemophilia,therefore,emergency system and diagnostic criteria for hemophilia is es-sential.Physicians of emergency department should be trained on identifying the undiagosed patients with inherited bleeding disorders and assessing the condition of bleeding.Prompt clotting factors replacement therapy should be given to the patients with hemophilia once bleeding is suspected.Physicians should be aware that inhibitors make the emergency treatment more complicated.

Peripheral blood gene expression profiling represents the pattern of expression of all genes in peripheral blood cells.By comparing the different gene expression of peripheral blood between cancer patients and healthy control or patients with alternative types of tumors,we can draw genes of different expression and further analyze the characteristic gene expression profiling to assist diagnosis and treatment.There have been remarkable advance in study of peripheral blood gene expression profiling in head and neck tumors,chest tumors,abdominal tumors,urinary tract and male reproductive system tumors,gynecological tumors and so on,which lay a foundation for further clinical applications.

Objective To study expression and clinical significance of nm23 genes in primary breast carcinomas. Methods The expression of nm23 was detected by immunohistochemical S-P method in 286 cases of primary breast carcinomas. Results The positive rate of nm23 expression was 65.7%. There was not a significant correlation between the positive rate of nm23 and patients' age, tumor pathological types. There was a significant relation between the expression of nm23 and tumor clinical stage, axillary lymph node metastasis, and the positive rate of nm23 expression in the cases of clinical stage I without axilliary lymph node metastasis was significantly higher than that in the cases of clinical stage III with axilliary lymph node metastasis. Conclusion The expression of nm23 gene was negatively related with clinical stage and axilliary lymph node metastasis in breast carcinomas, which indicated that nm23 gene expression may serve as an index for predicting lymph node metastasis and the prognosis of breast carcinoma.
