Background: Blood is a specialized connective tissue with complete and unchangeable identity. Although almost 400 blood grouping antigens have been reported, the ABO and Rh is recognized as the major clinically significant blood group antigens which are also known to vary from one population to another. This study therefore sought to study the frequency of these indices and hemoglobin concentra...

Background: The ABO blood group system was the first human blood group system to be discovered by Landsteiner in 1900. The second type of blood group is the rhesus system. There are only two Rh phenotype such as Rh positive and Rh negative, depending on whether Rh antigen is present on the red cell or not. The frequency of ABO and Rh phenotypes in different populations has been extensively stud...

African individuals harbor molecular RH variants, which permit alloantibody formation to high-prevalence Rh antigens after transfusions. Genotyping identifies such RH variants, which are often missed by serologic blood group typing. Comprehensive molecular blood group analysis using 3 genotyping platforms, nucleotide sequencing, and serologic evaluation was performed on a 7-year-old African mal...

S LEVINE’ has pointed out, A-B-O incompatibility is less frequent in families with erythroblastotic children due to Rh sensitization than in the general population. That is, an Rh negative mother is less likely to become sensitized to the Rh factor if her Rh positive fetus possesses either the A or B agglutinogen when the corresponding agglutinogen is absent from her own red cells. Wiener2 has ...

Objective: Blood group as a genetic trail can be associated with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this research was to determine the distribution of ABO frequency and RH blood groups in type 2 diabetic patients referred to Yazd diabetes center. Materials and Methods: In this research 1502 type 2 diabetes patients of Yazd diabetes center were selected and checked for blood group ,age, sex, duration ...

OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of ABO blood group and Rhesus (Rh) D antigen in the females of "District" Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted on 429 women having pregnancy induced hypertension, admitted in the three teaching hospitals of Peshawar, over a period of one year. Blood sample was collected from each subject after ta...
