“…12,13 In their study, Choi and Pai found patients with the blood group AB to have the highest frequency of osteoporosis and the lowest bone mineral density. 13 Lourie et al reported group A individuals to be overrepresented in patients with osteoporosis compared with a cohort of blood donors. 14 Our findings show that the two major fracture types (intracapsular and intertrochanteric) have different ABO blood group distributions.…”

Introduction The mechanism of falling has been proposed as the exclusive explanation for hip fracture pattern. Evidence exists that other genetic factors also influence proximal femoral fracture configuration. The ABO blood group serotype has been associated with other pathologies but any role in hip fracture has yet to be definitively characterised. Methods Our National Hip Fracture Database was interrogated over a four-year period. All patients had their blood group retrieved, and this was compared with hip fracture pattern and mortality rates. Confounding factors were accounted for using logistic regression and the Cox proportional hazards model. Results A total of 2,987 consecutive patients presented to our institution. Those with blood group A were significantly more likely to sustain intracapsular fractures than ‘non-A’ individuals (p=0.009). The blood group distribution of patients with intracapsular fractures was identical to that of the national population of England. However, blood group A was less common in patients with intertrochanteric fractures than in the general population (p=0.0002). Even after correction for age and sex, blood group A was associated with a decrease in the odds of suffering an intertrochanteric fracture to 80% (p=0.002). Blood group A had inferior survivorship correcting for age, sex and hip fracture pattern (hazard ratio: 1.14, p=0.035). This may be due to associated increased prevalence of co-morbid disease in this cohort. Conclusions Blood group is an independent predictor of hip fracture pattern, with group A patients more likely to sustain an intracapsular fracture and non-A individuals more likely to sustain an intertrochanteric fracture. The determinants of fracture pattern are likely to be related to complex interactions at a molecular level based on genetic susceptibility. The mechanism of fall may not be the only aetiological determinant of proximal femoral fracture configuration.

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are at increased risk of osteoporosis. However, the prevalence, correlates and effectiveness of treatment of osteoporosis in COPD patients remain unclear.We performed a systematic review of the literature to answer three questions. 1) What is the prevalence of osteoporosis in COPD? 2) What are identified correlates of osteoporosis in COPD? 3) What are the effects of treatment of osteoporosis in COPD? A computerised literature search in MEDLINE/PubMed and the Cochrane database was carried out. In addition, reference lists were searched by hand and authors were contacted if necessary.The prevalence of osteoporosis and osteopenia varied 9-69% and 27-67%, respectively. Prevalence of osteoporosis was generally higher than in healthy subjects and some other chronic lung diseases. Correlates of osteoporosis in COPD are mainly measures of body composition, disease severity and the use of corticosteroids, although causality has not been proven. Effects of treatment of osteoporosis have not been investigated in samples consisting of COPD patients only.Longitudinal follow-up to assess determinants of osteoporosis in COPD and randomised placebo-controlled trials on the effects of treatment of osteoporosis in patients with COPD only are warranted.

Demand for rabies hyperimmunoglobulin has increased recently, requiring optimization of vaccination schemes for immunized plasma donors. Possible resemblance of rabies vaccine to blood group antigens and consequential association of the immune response to rabies vaccine and blood group or corresponding isoantibodies has not yet been investigated. We analyzed antirabies antibodies after rabies vaccination and ABO blood group in 142 individuals, and isoantibody titers in 92 of those individuals. We did not find any correlation of the immune response with blood group or isoantibody levels. There was also no correlation with the sex of individuals, but there was a weak correlation between age and rabies-specific antibody level. Rabies vaccination schemes for immunized donors cannot be optimized on the basis of blood groups or isoantibody titers.
