Some gene therapy research trials have been performed in humans with mixed results. The future for gene therapy in hemophilia is continuing albeit at a moderate pace. There are many projects continuing in animal models.Improved long-term expression of the new genes will require the development of better vectors (the means of delivering the new genes into the cells).Call NHF's toll free number (1-800-42-HANDI) for more information about gene therapy for hemophilia.here are many projects continuing in animal models.

Results. If you have the test as an emergency you may get the results the same day. If the test is a routine one and you havenât heard from the hospital after a couple of weeks, contact your doctor's secretary or GP. You can view and print the quick guide for this page about ultrasound scans.
You'll be hopping and skipping to this doctor's appointment -- most women agree that an ultrasound is the one prenatal test they enjoy. An ultrasound is a painless diagnostic test that relies on sound waves, and most women will have at least one during pregnancy. Your first ultrasound will typically be done between 18 and 20 weeks, but you may have one before 12 weeks to confirm your due date.
