Levine (1943, 1958a, b, 1959) observed that Rh isoimmunization of Rh-negative women was relatively much morecommon inwomen with ABO-compatible husbands than in women with ABO-incompatible husbands. This observation has implications with regard to the incidence of the ABO blood groups in affected families, and certain of these implications were first noted by Lucia and Hunt (1950a, b) in respect...

Background and Aim: One of the main goals of blood transfusion medicine is to determine the compatibility of the blood products with the patients. Therefore, clinical and laboratory (serologic) evaluations should be done to determine the maximum compatibility (or minimum incompatibility). The most known blood groups is the ABO antigenic system and the most important of them is Rh system. Among ...

Hemolytic disease of newborn (HDN) is caused by the emergence of inappropriate antibodies against fetal blood antigens, which includes ABO and Rh blood group incompatibility. This study investigated the association between prenatal blood group antibody titer and HDN to provide a theoretic basis for clinical practice. ABO and Rh blood group of 7894 pregnant women and their husbands were screened...
