Previous research has suggested that factor VIII (FVIII) can regulate the osteoprotegerin (OPG)/RANKL system, which appears to play a role in hemophilic arthropathy. Investigators have now aimed to measure the OPG levels in patients with hemophilia A/B and assess their correlation with the levels of FVIII/FIX.
