“…However, a study by Shankar et al 18 observed a tendency of blood group B exhibiting a non-significant lowest pain threshold and pain tolerance. In another study done by Lausten et al 25 in patients who had undergone reconstructive knee surgery, there was no significant difference between post-operative pain measured by the amount of postoperative analgesics consumed and blood types A, B and O.…”

BACKGROUND Different blood groups may have their own characteristics personality traits. For instance, people with blood group A tend to be more ambitious, restless and are referred to as type A personality. The ABO blood types are also found to be associated with multiple medical conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and various cancers. Significant association of ABO groups with the prevalence of preeclampsia has also been reported. We wanted to examine if ABO blood group has any influence on pain perception in healthy volunteers induced by cold pressor test. METHODS The study procedure included a blood group test of the 80 students who were then subjected to undergo cold pressor test. The blood group test was done by using anti-sera A, B and D (Tulip Diagnostics Pvt Ltd). A cold pressor test was done by immersing the dominant hand up to the wrist in chilled water (4 0 C ± 1 0 C). Statistical Analysis was done by using independent t-test and one-way ANOVA, and all the values were expressed as mean (±SD) and p less than 0.05 was taken as significant. RESULTS The average pain threshold of males was 25.49 ± 7.62 seconds as compared to 17.58 ± 5.02 seconds of females which was statistically significant. The mean pain tolerance for male and female students were 28.69 ± 9.07 seconds and 18.08 ± 7.09 seconds respectively which was significant. Students having blood group B have highest pain threshold (22.85 ± 7.03 seconds), followed by blood group O (22.48 ± 7.64 seconds), blood group A (17.90 ± 7.53 seconds) and blood group AB have the least pain threshold (16.60 ± 1.67 seconds). Students with blood group B (26.96 ± 7.64) have the maximum pain tolerance while the students with blood group A (20.33 ± 11.43) have the least pain tolerance in response to CPT. CONCLUSIONS Students with blood group B are found to have highest pain threshold and pain tolerance while blood group AB showed least pain threshold and blood group A showed least pain tolerance.

“…However, in our study, it was observed that patients with B blood group had similar senseof pain intensity like patients with AB blood group and pain perception severity showed a ranking such as B = AB> O> A in terms of blood groups. Lausten et al investigated the association between postoperative pain and ABO blood type in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and no significant difference was found between blood groups and analgesic use, but it was shown that patients with 0 blood type were more likely to use analgesics (24). In another study investigating the effect of blood groups on pain perception, male students kept their dominant hands in 4-6 ° C cold water.…”

Aim:The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is a relation between ABO blood groups and pain levels during venoblock procedure to vena saphena magna using N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA), as well as need of analgesics in the postoperative period in patients with venous insufficiency. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients from each of the A, B, AB and O blood groups were included in the study. The severity of pain during ablation with NBCA was measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score. In addition, all patients were asked how many days they used analgesics after the procedure at the fifth day visit. VAS scores and postoperative analgesic requirements were evaluated according to ABO blood groups. Results: Both VAS scores and the days of analgesics need after procedure in the B and AB blood groups were significantly higher than in the A and O blood groups (p <0.001), however, were not different between B and AB blood groups. They were significantly higher in blood group 0 were than in blood group A (p <0.001) but were significantly lower thanB and AB blood groups (p <0.001). The VAS scores and days of analgesics need of patients with A blood group were the lowest among all blood groups (p <0.001). Conclusion:We demonstrated that pain levels occurred during venablock procedure and postoperative analgesic need were related to ABO blood group. Accordingly, the relationship between pain and blood group may contribute to pain management for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

“…These ABO-mediated changes in membrane topology can explain the several pathophysiologic differences between various blood groups [128]. ABO blood type has been linked to a number of diseases, including cancer and musculoskeletal diseases [92]. For example, blood group A was confirmed by several studies to be associated with elevated risk of gastric cancer, while blood group O with lower risk of pancreatic cancer [129].…”

“…The ABO blood group is the most important blood group system in transfusion and transplantation medicine [91]. The ABO blood system consists of four blood types (A, B, AB and O) [92]. Three variant alleles (A, B, and O) of a single gene on chromosome 9q34, the ABO gene, determine a person's blood type by encoding two active glycosyltransferases (A and B) with different substrate specificities [93].…”

It has recently been proposed that glycans, being the third alphabet of life, interact intricately with endogenous biomolecules to modulate tolerance, immune and inflammatory responses. Specifically, food glycans could impact health and be a source of inflammation and age-related diseases. These special carbohydrates are present as glycoconjugates (glycoproteins or glycolipids) in and on the surface of all the cells (glycocalyx) of all organisms or are found in free form in biological fluids. Recent advances in glycobiology and glycochemistry have shown how glycans bind with naturally present human proteins (lectins), through protein-carbohydrate interactions (or PCI), but also how oligosaccharides can interact with other glycans, present throughout the human body (through carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions, or CCI). Oligosaccharides present in food sources, which go beyond the definition of normal fibers, once ingested are then either absorbed in the bloodstream, where they are recognized by the immune system, or interact with the surface of GI epithelial cells, thus generating appropriate biochemical cascades that induce a tolerance or immune/inflammatory response. Because the ABO epitopes have been encountered on all human cells, not just erythrocytes and based on the different biotypology (A, AB, B, and O) impose morphic changes in the distribution of the glycans on the glycocalyx (lipid rafts and clustered saccharide patches), their CCI with food and microbe glycans will be different, thus, eliciting contrasting responses. This can explain the epidemiological data for blood type diets (BTD). Through continuous consumption of the wrong types of glycans, processes of chronic inflammation could be initiated and progress to accelerated aging. Four basic modes of action have been identified showing how glycans can trigger inflamm-aging. Since glycobiology is a young science, further studies with newer technologies are warranted for advancement in this field.
