Background: Numerous studies have documented the association of the ABO blood groups with the occurrence of cancers. Aim was to find out an association of ABO blood groups and various cancers in the North Eastern region of India.Methods: The study was a retrospective observational study that included 1000 cases and 1000 controls. The data included the ABO blood typing of the selected cancer sites which were head and neck, esophagus, stomach, breast, cervix, and ovary. Patients who attended blood bank of regional cancer center with requisition for blood transfusion from 2014 to 2016 were included. The control group was healthy blood donors. Chi square test was used to assess the difference among the compared groups. Risk was calculated by regression analysis. P value <0.05 was considered as statistically significant at 95% confidence interval.Results: Out of 1000 cases and 1000 controls, O blood group were seen in 377 (37.7%) and 395 (39.5%) cases and control, respectively. Significant reduced odds ratio (OR) in non O blood groups for head and neck, esophagus, stomach, and breast was observed. In case of carcinoma cervix, OR for B group was 1.5 (P=0.05), and for blood group A OR=2.2 (P=0.02) was seen in carcinoma ovary.Conclusions: In the studied population, patients with O blood group are at an increased risk of developing head and neck, esophagus, stomach, and breast cancers.

“…Study on the association between blood groups and several diseases has been carried out by various workers [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] . There are only a few studies available regarding the relationship of ABO blood groups and risk of developing ovarian malignancies and these studies have stated contradictory results [12,[19][20][21] .…”

“…Since 1953, the relationship of ABO blood groups with incidence, clinicopathologic characteristics, and prognosis of many diseases has been established [7] . Some recent studies have shown the association of ABO blood groups with cancer of the cervix [8] , oral premalignancies [9] , cancer mortality [10] and breast cancer [11] . Several plausible mechanisms, including inflammation, immune-surveillance for malignant cells, intercellular adhesion, and membrane signalling have been proposed to explain the observed association between ABO blood groups and cancer risk [4] .…”

Background & Objectives:To investigate correlation between the ABO blood groups and ovarian malignancies in females and also to correlate the frequency of ovarian malignancies with Rh factor.Methods: Data were collected on the blood groups of 1,870 females diagnosed with ovarian malignancies and the same was compared with blood groups of 2,540 females taken as controls that were operated with reasons other than ovarian malignancies. For assessing the relationship between blood groups and ovarian malignancies, odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI (confidence interval) was calculated.

“…Different biological factors such as molecular and gene associations and hormonal balance can predispose to breast cancer and play a role in malignancy development. Cervix cancer is second the most common cancer in females that mainly occurs in developing countries 2 . Studies show that control and prevention are crucial for this deadly cancer 3 .…”

Background: Breast cancer and cervix cancer are the prevalent and deadly types of solid tumors around the world. According to the importance of cancer, it is necessary to understand predisposing factors that affect cancer risk. In this regard, previous studies suggest that blood types particularly ABO and Rh-Hr Blood-Group System could play roles in the risk and different features of cancers. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the potential of ABO and Rh blood groups as risk factors for breast cancer and cervix cancer. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study included 109 and 14 patients diagnosed with breast cancer and cervix cancer, respectively with known ABO and Rh blood types, between 2018 and 2020 in Khuzestan province, Iran. For compression of ABO blood groups distribution between the cancer patients group and the healthy population, we used data from a large-scale study that report the distribution of ABO blood groups in 29,922 blood donors in Khuzestan province. Results: Based on obtained results the most frequent blood group is O followed by B, A, and AB in breast cancer and followed by A, B, and AB in cervix cancer. Results showed no significant association between ABO and Rh and the risk of breast and cervix cancer. Moreover, there is no relationship between blood types and clinic pathological features of breast cancer. Conclusion: Based on our data, ABO and in this regard, previous studies suggest that blood types particularly ABO and Rh-Hr Blood-Group System could play roles in the risk and different features of cancers. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the potential of ABO and Rh blood groups as risk factors for breast cancer and cervix cancer do have not any association with the risk of breast and cervix cancer and their characteristics.
