“…This is consistent with findings from Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia (67.7%), Qatar (91%), Turkey (91.24%), and North India (95%). 8 , 11 , 14 - 17 Some studies have reported almost equal proportions of male and female donors; for instance, a study from China stated males to make up 53.73% of donors, one (47.0%) in the United Kingdom, and one (49.1%) in Australia. 18 - 20 In our study, the number of female donors was low (0.7%).…”

Objectives: To evaluate the association between transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) and ABO, Rh-D, and Kell blood systems among blood donors. Methods: This was a retrospective study of 10,095 donors who visited the Blood Bank at Asir Hospital, Abha, Saudi Arabia. Data including demographic information, ABO, Rh-D, and Kell blood groups, and serological and molecular test results of TTIs (the TTIs were obtained from each donor’s records). Chi-squared and Fisher’s exact tests were employed to establish possible associations between blood groups and TTIs. Results: The prevalence rate of TTIs among donors was 6.3%, with HBcAb (70%) being the most prevalent biomarker among positive donors. Donors with the O blood group were at a higher risk of contracting TTIs. Significant associations were observed between HIV and blood group A (χ 2 =6.30, p =0.01), HBsAg and group AB (χ 2 =17.3193, p =0.00003), malaria and group A (χ 2 =5.0567, p =0.02), and HBV-DNA and group AB (χ 2 =12.3163, p =0.0004). Also, Kell blood group was significantly associated with HIV (χ 2 =14.5, p =0.0001), HBcAb (χ 2 =78.51, p <0.0001), and syphilis (χ 2 =25.225, p <0.00001). Conclusion: ABO and Kell blood groups are associated with TTI markers. These findings highlight the need for improved strategies and approaches in screening and managing blood donations to minimize the risk of TTIs.

To determine the A, B, O, AB blood group distribution and Rhesus (Rh) positivity rate of Sivas province, and thus to know the distribution of blood groups in our region and to use it in a practical and scientific manner when necessary. Method: The blood group results of a total of 50,441 individuals over the age of 18 who applied to Sivas Cumhuriyet University Health Services Application and Research Hospital for various reasons between 2018 and 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. ABO and Rh blood groups were determined according to the data obtained from the Hitachi ElecSys 2010 Rack device. Various groupings were made according to blood type, gender and age, and the results were evaluated by percentage calculation. Results: 19.387 (38.4%) people A Rh (+), 14.045 (27.8%) people O Rh (+), 7.202 (14.2%) people B Rh (+), 3445 (6.8%) ) person AB Rh (+), 2781 (5.5%) person A Rh (-), 2060 (4.08%) person O Rh (-), 1027 (2.03%) person B Rh (-), 500 (0.9%) persons were identified as AB Rh (-). In terms of Rh blood group, it was seen that 44.076 (87.3%) people were Rh (+) and 6365 (12.6%) people were Rh (-). Conclusions: In summary Sivas province of Turkey reflects the demographic. Blood type distribution rates of Sivas province are similar to other provinces in our region and the general population of our country. However, we saw differences with some other regions. It is very important to know the blood type for blood supply and storage in our region. We hope that these up-to-date data on blood group distribution in Sivas will be useful for the practice and literature in terms of blood groups database.
