“…The Turkish (n=35), Palestinian (n=68), Syrian (n=430), Lebanese (n=12), Egyptian (n=1130), and Afghan (n=74) showed frequency of A > O > B > AB. In Turkish, Syrian, and Egyptian, our results agree with previous studies [13,[66][67][68][69]. In Palestinian and Lebanese previous works, the frequency was O>A>B>AB in some regions and A>O>B>AB in other regions [70][71][72].…”

Both blood-grouping systems are of great value in transfusion safety, genetic research, inheritance pattern, paternity testing, and susceptibility to certain hereditary diseases, such as duodenal ulcer, diabetes mellitus, urinary tract infections, gastric cancer, and predisposition to lower levels of von Willebrand factor 5 .…”
