This study analyzed 24 pedigrees from hemophilia registries of multiple medical centers in Taiwan to assess whether sporadic non-inversion variants (NIVs) recur in the same generation within families. Linkage analysis using intragenic and extragenic markers combined with amplification refractory mutation system-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-qPCR) revealed that among 16 individuals inheriting the same X chromosome as the one bearing the sporadic HA-causing mutation, none carried the F8 variant. These findings strongly suggest that sporadic NIVs exhibit very low risk of recurrence. Our results provide critical information for recurrence risk assessment and counseling strategies for HA sporadic NIVs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms27093831","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T11:33:37Z","timestamp":1777376017000},"page":"3831","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Non-Inversion Variants in Sporadic Hemophilia A Rarely Recur"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Shih-Yao","family":"Lin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"AltruBio Inc., Taipei 115, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5076-2917","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ming","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genomic Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei 100, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei 100, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shun-Ping","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genomic Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4925-7101","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gwo-Chin","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genomic Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dong-Jay","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genomic Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adeline","family":"Yan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genomic Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Han-Ni","family":"Hsieh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hemophilia Treatment and Thrombosis Center, Department of Internal Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7789-2148","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ming-Ching","family":"Shen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hemophilia Treatment and Thrombosis Center, Department of Internal Medicine, Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua 500, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei 100, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei 100, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2185","DOI":"10.1182\/blood.2023023275","article-title":"Coagulation factor VIII: Biological basis of emerging hemophilia A therapies","volume":"144","author":"Doshi","year":"2024","journal-title":"Blood"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3433","DOI":"10.1016\/S0021-9258(19)69627-4","article-title":"The role of phospholipid and factor VIIIa in the activation of bovine factor X","volume":"256","author":"Tans","year":"1981","journal-title":"J.
