blood samples (291857) from 24 provinces of iran were tested for abo and rh groups. the rh complexes as well as kell, duffy, kidd, lutheran, kp and xg blood groups were tested only on a part of the material from tehran. results show a great deal of heterogeneity for abo and rh groups in various provinces of iran. the calculated gene frequencies are compared with those of other investigations in...

Objective Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, affects women’s quality of life. Several studies revealed that both environmental and genetic factors contribute to the development of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of ABO and Rh blood groups in Iranian women with endometriosis referring to two referral infertility centers in Tehran, Iran. Mate...

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 ...

the above investigation represents one of ihe few studies carried out in the field of population genetics in iran. the differences in all three groups of siudies which have been carried oui by blood transfusion centres of the imperial army, red lion and sun and teheran university, inspired us to carry out further investigations on abo blood grouping and rh typing in order to obtain the result o...
