The clinical significance of ABO and Rhesus blood group systems has been well documented. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of ABO and Rhesus blood groups in blood donors in Lahore, Pakistan, with a view to generate data with multipurpose future practicalities in the field of medicine. Blood groups of 3000 blood donors were determined by commercially available standard ...

Background: The development of anti-red blood cell alloantibodies remains a major problem in transfusion of blood in thalassemia major patients. Also, Autoantibodies can result in clinical hemolysis and difficulty in cross-matching blood. We studied the frequency of red blood cell alloimmunization and autoimmunization among thalassemia patients who received regular transfusions in Ilam province...

Objective: To study phenotypic prevalence of ABO, Rh and Kell blood group system Material and Method: Voluntary blood donors were tested for red cell antigen of ABO, Rh (D, C, c, E, e) and Kell (K) blood group systems. Each sample was tested using LISS/Coombs ABO-Rh gel card and DiaClon Rh subgroups +K gel card. Calculations of antigen and phenotypes frequencies were expressed as percentages an...

there are reports from different countries that some types of glaucoma are associated with blood groups. this cross-sectional study was performed on 400 glaucomatous patients [100 patients in each group of primary open angle glaucoma (poag), chronic angle closure glaucoma (cacg), pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (pexg) and primary congenital glaucoma (pcg)] and 400 blood donors as control group to as...

Abstract Background and Objectives The main antigens of the Rh blood group system (D,C,c,E,e) after the ABO system, are the most immune antigens. Due to existence of donor's red blood cells in the patient's circulation serologic methods can not accurately detect blood group antigens in patients with chronic blood transfusions, but molecular methods can overcome many of these limitations.   ...
