关于我们
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) has several major research goals in blood diseases. One is to ensure the adequacy and safety of the nation’s blood supply. A second is to support efforts to treat and cure blood disorders, such as supporting scientific advances in stem cell biology and new gene and cell-based therapies to repair and regenerate human tissues and organs. By funding and supporting research on the causes, prevention, and treatment of blood disorders, we help researchers make new discoveries, leading to better medical care for the millions of people affected by blood disorders around the world. NHLBI’s Blood Diseases & Disorders Education Program is a national health education program that aims to bring greater visibility to blood diseases and disorders like anemia, sickle cell disease and others, their diagnosis, treatment and management, and blood donation and safety by translating research for patients and professionals. NHLBI is advancing blood disorders and blood safety research in many ways.

Researchers are studying how blood-forming cells can form not just in the bone marrow but also in the lungs. A recent study in the journal Blood explains these connections and the potential these findings have to advance research. Researchers hope to learn more about how these cells could potentially be used to help people in need of stem cell transplants. https://bit.ly/3DHoawa

?? Von Willebrand Awareness Did you know? von Willebrand Disease (vWD) is not the same as hemophilia — and it’s actually the most common bleeding disorder! Common symptoms include: ?? Bruising easily ?? Frequent nosebleeds ?? Bleeding gums & mouth ?? Prolonged periods Many individuals with VWD may still be undiagnosed, so awareness is crucial. If you or a family member suspect you may have a bleeding disorder but haven't been diagnosed, it's crucial to contact your healthcare provider for testing and a referral to a hematologist or a Hemophilia Treatment Center (HTC). Early diagnosis can truly make a difference. Visit our Bleeding Disorders 101 to learn more https://hubs.li/Q03b4gJt0 Let’s spread the word and raise awareness for those living with vWD! ??
