“…Most of the studies in Northern India, (Chandra et al, 12 Garg et al, 13 Singh P et al, 14 Singh S et al 15 ), Western India (Giri et al, 16 Behra et al 17 and Arya et al 18 ) and Central India (Chaurasia et al 6 ), showed B blood group as the commonest blood group, similar to our study. (Table 3) In contrast, studies done in Southern India (Suresh et al, 19 John et al 20 ) and Eastern India (Nag et al, 21 Badge et al 11 ) showed O group to be the commonest blood group. Thus, in the studies done in most parts of India the commonest blood group is either B or O followed by A and then AB.…”

“…11 This is because of the fact that in developing countries like India, because of the cultural habits, lack of motivation, illiteracy and fear of blood donation, lower haemoglobin concentration, particularly in the menstruating age group, females rarely donate the blood. Hence, the females should be educated about the importance of good nutritional diet and should be made aware about the advantages of blood donation.…”

BACKGROUNDThe ABO and Rhesus (Rh) blood group system is the most important system for blood transfusion purposes. The incidence of ABO and Rh groups varies markedly in different races, ethnic groups as well as socioeconomic groups in different parts of the world. This study was conducted to determine the frequency of ABO and Rh blood groups in a tertiary care teaching hospital in western Maharashtra.

“…The phenotypic frequencies of blood groups showed intra-regional variations in the studies conducted in Central and Eastern India. In Central India, Mehta et al [ 14 ] reported the highest frequency of blood group B in Madhya Pradesh while Badge et al [ 15 ] reported the highest frequency of blood group O in Chattisgarh. In Eastern India, Singh et al [ 6 ] reported the highest frequency of blood group B in Ranchi while Ipsita et al [ 16 ] reported the highest frequency of blood group O in Durgapur.…”

Introduction The distribution of ABO and Rh (D) blood groups and their allele frequencies vary from one population to another worldwide. The objective of the study is to estimate the distribution of ABO & Rh (D) blood groups among all the blood donors in a tertiary care hospital in Chengalpattu district of Tamilnadu in South India and to determine their allele frequencies. Methods This was a retrospective observational study carried out in the blood bank of Karpaga Vinayaga Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre from January 2015 to December 2021. ABO and Rh (D) blood grouping of all the blood donors were carried out by tube agglutination method. Allele frequency of the blood group genes was calculated based on Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Results Out of total a of 7598 blood donors, 7576 (99.71%) were males and 22 (0.29%) were females. The most common blood group was O positive (37.67%) while AB negative (0.18%) was the least common blood group. The phenotypic frequency of blood group O (39.17%) was the highest and that of blood group AB (7.88%) was the least. A majority (95.96%) of the blood donors were Rh (D) positive. The allele frequencies of ABO and Rh (D) blood groups were 0.1628 for I A , 0.2177 for I B , 0.6259 for I O , 0.7991 for I D, and 0.2009 for I d . Conclusions The distribution of the two major blood group systems namely ABO and Rh (D) systems show considerable heterogeneity in different populations of the world. Information about allele frequencies of blood groups among different populations worldwide will help in framing policy decisions to face future challenges in healthcare services.
