ABO is the most clinically important blood group system in transfusion and transplantation medicine. The popular ABO genotyping methods, such as the sequencing of exons 6 and 7 and sequence-specific primer (SSP)-PCR, often lead to ambiguous typing results. Long PCR-sequencing method was designed to analyze two regulatory regions (promoter and CBF/NF-Y enhancer regions) and all genomic sequences...

INTRODUCTION ABO blood group system is the most important blood group in transfusion and has been widely used in population studies. Several molecular techniques for ABO allele's detection are widely used for distinguishing various alleles of glycosyl transferase locus on chromosome 9. METHODS 744 randomly selected samples from Azari donors of East Azerbaijan province (Iran) were examined usi...

Chimerism in humans is a rare phenomenon often initially identified in the resolution of an ABO blood type discrepancy. We report a dispermic chimera who presented with mixed field in his B antigen typing that might have been mistaken for the B3 subtype. The propositus is a healthy Korean male blood donor. Neither his clinical history nor initial molecular investigation of his ABO gene explaine...

Background and Purpose: Transcranial Doppler blood flow velocities are inversely related to age and hematocrit, but the relative importance of age, oxygenation, and hemorheological factors has not previously been examined. We evaluated the relative contributions of these factors to middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity in adults with chronic renal failure, a population subject to significa...

This article updates Kelly and Bruestle (2011) by illustrating how publication trends in different subject categories in economics evolved from 2007 to 2013. Using data from RePEc we show that the largest increase in the relative share was for articles published in JEL category Q (“Agricultural and Natural Resource Economics, Environmental and Ecological Economics”) over this period. Furthermor...

The journal of economic literature classification scheme is a standard scheme to classify economics paper. This paper exames the usage of the scheme in a large set of economics papers. I document what subjects are central to the work of economics.
