Undiagnosed and Unrecognized Patients with a High Bleeding Score

Eva Birgitte Leinøe, a consultant PhD at the Department of Hematology at Rigshospitalet, presented research at ASH focusing on undiagnosed patients, particularly women, with high bleeding scores. Her study explored the potential connection between hypermobile Ehler-Danlos syndrome and bleeding disorders in this group. The research revealed low vitamin C levels in these patients, suggesting a possible avenue for further investigation into vitamin C supplementation in these patient groups.
