“…Deresinski et al Reported the prevalence of increased coccidioidomosis in individuals with blood type B 20 . Tuberculoid leprosy was found to be associated with blood group O, lepromatous leprosy with blood group A and B, gonorrhea with blood group B, smallpox with blood group A and B and Escherichia Coli O 157 infection with blood group O 8,9,14,20 . In the current study, we found no relationship between anogenital wart development and ABO-Rh blood groups.…”

“…Blood antigens in mucin may be responsible for the binding of certain pathogens and may help the immune system in the removal of pathogens. These antigens can also provide nutrients to bacteria and parasites 9 . Genetic studies have shown that individuals with A blood group are more resistant to influenza virus, although they are more risky for acute rheumatism 6 .…”

“…Many studies have shown a relationship between blood groups and susceptibility to various infectious diseases. Some viral infections, despite viral contact, do not occur or are not symptomatic due to ABO blood groups 9 . In this study, we aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between anogenital wart development which is an infectious viral disease and ABO-Rh groups.…”

Since the discovery of the ABO blood group, the potential role of blood groups in infectious diseases has been investigated. Some viral infections, despite viral contact, do not occur or are not symptomatic due to ABO blood groups. It is known that not all patients in contact with HPV develop clinical disease. To our knowledge, the relationship between ABO-Rh groups and anogenital wart has not been investigated previously. Materials and Methods: 96 patients with anogenital wart and 286 sexually active patients with blood group records were included in this study. Age, sex and blood groups of the patient and control groups were retrospectively analyzed. The results were analyzed statistically. Results: In terms of ABO blood groups, 41 (42.7%) patients had A, 21 (21.9%) patients had B, 11 (11.5%) patients had AB, 23 (23.9%) patients had 0 blood groups in the patient group. In the control group, there were 126 (44.1%) individuals A, 46 (16.1%) individuals B, 30 (10.5) individuals AB, 84 (29.3) individuals had 0 blood group. The difference between the groups was not significant. In terms of Rh groups, 85 (88.5%) patients were Rh (+) and 11(11.5%) patients were Rh (-). In the control group, 240 (83.9%) individuals were Rh (+) and 46 (16.1%) were Rh (-). The difference between the groups was not. Conclusion: There was no relationship between ABO-Rh groups and anogenital wart development. To clarify whether anogenital wart development is easy in some blood groups, further studies are needed in different races and geographic regions.

“…The relationship between different diseases and blood groups were examined in some previous studies. Infections like Crimia-Congo fever, norovirus, influenza A2, adenovirus, Vibrio El Torand hepatitis C are more prevalent among people with blood group O [8]. People with blood group B and AB are prone to urinary tract infections and less susceptible to Helicobacter pylori.…”

Introduction. Numerous publications indicate that the prevalence of some infectious, neoplastic and immunological diseases are associated with ABO blood groups. Objective. The aim of this study was to verify whether ABO and Rh blood groups are associated with severe anaphylactic reactions after Hymenoptera stings. Materials and Method. A study was undertaken of 71,441 Caucasian subjects living in the same geographic area. The study group included 353 patients with diagnosed systemic anaphylaxis to Hymenoptera venom. Control group included 71,088 healthy blood donors. Frequencies of ABO and Rhesus groups in the study and control groups were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results. No statistically significant interactions were observed between the ABO blood group and anaphylactic reactions to Hymenoptera.

“…In the early publications about this issue, cancer, peptic ulcer and thrombotic diseases were claimed to be related with ABO blood groups (2,3,4). Up to now, research on the relationship of ABO blood groups with coronary heart disease, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, acne vulgaris, chronic renal failure (CRF), brucellosis, malaria, Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF), Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection have been reported in the literature (5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13). Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (CHB) is still considered as an important public health issue worldwide, despite the existing effective prophylactic vaccine and strong antiviral therapies.…”
