Blood group polymorphisms in Brazil☆
the frequencies of the different blood group antigens vary sigBlood group antigens are polymorphisms of proteins and carbohydrates on the surface of red blood cells (RBC) with the distribution of alleles varying between different ethnic groups and populations. By using the genetic information provided by the human genome project, the molecular basis of most blood group genes encoding blood grou...
متن کاملThe prevalence of undesired blood group antibodies in thalassemia patients
Abstract Background and Objectives Blood transfusion related alloimmunization is common among patients receiving regular blood transfusion, especially thalassemia patients. In this study we aimed to find the prevalence of alloimmunization among patients of thalassemia. Materials and Methods In this desciptional study, we screened 305 thalassemia patients (53.8% female and 46.2% male, age ...
متن کاملStudy of Kell blood group genotype in alloimmiunized thalassemia patients
Abstract Background and Objectives Alloimmunization is the most serious problem in thalassemia patients and Anti-K is the most prevalent antibody in these patients. So accurate identification of this antigen can significantly decrease the rate of alloimmunization. Serological phenotyping is usually not reliable in multi-transfused patients. Molecular genotyping can overcome limitations of hema...
متن کاملIncidence of high blood pressure in a group of tannery workers in Brazil.
The aim of this study was to measure the incidence of high blood pressure (HBP) in a medium-size tannery in Botucatu, São Paulo State, southeast Brazil. A previous study at this tannery showed a high prevalence of arterial hypertension. A positive correlation was found between cumulated work time and arterial pressure. We followed a cohort of workers for seven years. At the end of this period, ...
متن کاملkidd blood group genotyping in alloimmunized thallasemia patients
Abstract Background and Objectives Hemagglutination has limitations in identifying the phenotype of patients who have been recently transfused due to the presence of donor red cells (RBCs) in the patient’s circulation. Kidd blood group is one of the most important blood groups in transfusion medicine and related antibodies are responsible for one third of delayed haemolytic transfusion reactio...
