“…In contrast, a statistically significant association of salivary nonsecretor with low lung function was reported in the Johns Hopkins genetic epidemiological study conducted in 1980 ( Cohen et al, 1980 ). A study concluded that non-O blood groups, such as A, B, and AB, predominate in asthma (J45) ( Mroczek et al, 2018 ). This may be due to a possible small protective effect of the secretion of ABO antigens on smoking-induced damage to the airways ( Taylor-Cousar et al, 2009 ).…”

“…According to previous reports, the incidence of many diseases was related to blood groups. [ 13 – 15 ] The study by Ramesh which was conducted at various cancer hospitals in Kanpur and found that people with blood group A and AB had a lower risk of oral cancer than people with others. [ 16 ] The Wolpin study found that people with blood group A, B, or AB had a higher risk of developing pancreatic cancer.…”

The distribution characteristics of ABO and RhD blood groups in the world were different and the data were limited. The aim was to investigate the distribution characteristics of ABO and RhD blood groups in Chongqing, and to provide scientific-effective data for a more reasonable blood collection program. We retrospectively analyzed 795 698 blood donors who had donated blood from 2014 to 2019 at the Chongqing Blood Center. The data on ABO and RhD blood groups were extracted based on blood management system. We used percentages to describe the extraction of data on blood donors by gender, age, and nationality. The data on the distribution of ABO (A, B, AB and O) and RhD (RhD-Positive and RhD-Negative) blood groups were reported also in percentages. Of those, 427 516 (53.73%) were males and 368 182 (46.27%) were females. Among all the blood donors, 321 916 (40.46%) were under the age of 25, followed by 26–35 years age group (22.65%), 36-45 years age group (18.95%), 46-55 years age group (16.98%) and 56-60 years age group (0.96%). There were 755439 (94.94%) of the blood donors who were of the Han nationality. The distribution of blood groups O, A, B and AB were 35.54%, 31.90%, 24.14% and 8.42%, respectively. The distributions of RhD-Negative group was found in 4362 (0.55%) blood donors. The distribution characteristics of the ABO and RhD blood group should be considered when improving blood collection program in Chongqing.

“…BJANZADEH et al found no association between ABO system blood types and asthma, while MROCZEK et al found a lower incidence of O blood type in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (BJANZADEH et al, 2009;MROCZEK at al., 2018). Data from the study by MROCZEK et al showed a higher incidence of blood type A in patients with COPD and asthma, compared to the general population and coincides with the data in our study.…”

Tobacco smoking is major risk factor for development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which appears in 15-20% of smokers. Apart from smoking, exposure to polluted air and various noxae, and several genetic factors influence its development as well. The ABO blood type distribution varies among populations in the world, but also within subpopulations. A large number of studies have shown a correlation between blood types and the pathology of various diseases. These markers, used in population genetic research, have mainly shown deviations in the representation of blood groups in different diseases, compared to the general population. The aim of this study was to determine the ABO blood types distribution in patients with COPD compared to the general population, and their possible association with COPD stage, patients? nutritional status and lung function impairment. This observational, prospective study included 150 patients (68.7% men and 31.3% women), average age 64.80 ? 8.38 years, diagnosed with COPD. Data were collected at the Clinical Center of Montenegro in Podgorica and at the Special Hospital for Lung Diseases Brezovik in Niksic. Determination of blood types of the ABO system and Rh factors for all subjects was performed at the Blood Transfusion Center in Podgorica. Apart from patients? tobacco smoking status (duration of smoking and the number of cigarettes smoked per day expressed in pack/years for current smokers and former smokers), we also analyzed their exposure to various other noxae, their body mass index, and lung function in correlation to ABO blood type and Rh factor, and performed statistical analysis. We found a significant difference in the distribution of ABO blood types in patients with COPD compared to the general population. The highest frequency of blood type A was found in patients with COPD. We also found the lowest average values of spirometry parameters in that group, which represented majority of those patients with respiratory insufficiency having the most severe stage of the disease. Combined blood types A, B and were significantly more common in patients with COPD in comparison to blood type O, which is the least represented (23.3%). The least obstructive disturbance of pulmonary ventilation was found in the patients with B type. Respiratory insufficiency showed differences in gender representation, found in 40.4% of women, and in 25.2% of men with terminal phase of COPD. The prevalence of AB, higher than expected, decreases with the severity of the disease.
