ABSTRACT
The clinical features of thirteen Chinese patients with lupus anticoagulant were described. They were noted to conform to those reported among Caucasians and tend to suggest that the term 'lupus anticoagulant' is a double misnomer.

ABSTRACT
A young Hong Kong Chinese male patient with fever of unknown origin is presented. The diagnosis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome was made only 5 months after the onset of his illness. The lack of awareness of the syndrome might account for the delay in the diagnosis. The legal attitude towards homosexuality might have an adverse effect on epidemiological studies of AIDS in Hong Kong.
