Prevalence of Rh, Duffy, Kell, Kidd & MNSs blood group antigens in the Indian blood donor population
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Little data are available regarding the frequencies of the blood group antigens other than ABO and RhD in the Indian population. Knowledge of the antigen frequencies is important to assess risk of antibody formation and to guide the probability of finding antigen-negative donor blood, which is especially useful when blood is required for a patient who has multiple red ce...
متن کاملRenal Homografts in Patients with Major Donor-recipient Blood Group Incompatibilities.
Between November 24, 1962, and May 15, 1963, 12 renal homografts were done at the University of Colorado Medical Center. In half of the cases, a kidney was provided by a donor of the same major blood type as the recipient. In the other half, the major blood groups of the donor and recipient patients were different. The present study is concerned with an analysis of the results in these comparat...
متن کاملClinically Significant Minor Blood Group Antigens amongst North Indian Donor Population
Background. Racial differences in blood group antigen distribution are common and may result in striking and interesting findings. These differences in blood group antigen distribution are important due to their influence on the clinical practice of transfusion medicine. Study Design and Methods. This is a prospective study, involving 1000 healthy regular repeat voluntary blood donors associate...
متن کاملThe value of DNA analysis for antigens of the Kell and Kx blood group systems.
K ell is a major human blood group system that is highly polymorphic, and at present it is known to express 28 different alloantigens. After the ABO and Rh systems, Kell is the most important blood group system in transfusion medicine, as some of the antigens are potent immunogens and their antibodies can cause severe transfusion reactions in mismatched blood transfusions and fetal anemia in fe...
متن کاملPersonalized Donor-Recipient Matching for Organ Transplantation
Organ transplants can improve the life expectancy and quality of life for the recipient but carries the risk of serious post-operative complications, such as septic shock and organ rejection. The probability of a successful transplant depends in a very subtle fashion on compatibility between the donor and the recipient – but current medical practice is short of domain knowledge regarding the co...
