Data are adjusted for ethnic group, age at first exposure to factor VIII, year of first factor VIII exposure, center of first treatment, FH of hemophilia, FH of inhibitors, intensive treatment at first treatment, and FVIII genotype (adjusted for high/low risk as defined in “Methods”). Missing data have been imputed by multiple logistic regression models. Where subjects have been subdivided into RODIN and non-RODIN groups, only Advate and Kogenate Bayer/Helixate NexGen have been reported because of limited numbers.
