“…[12] Thus it can be said that the O-blood group has a protective effect from ischemic events and therefore neurodegeneration. [13] In our study O-blood group ratio was lower than the control study (p<0.032). Most large scaled study about Blood group and neurodegenerative disease is conducted by Senthil K Vasan et al showed no link between blood type and neurodegenerative disease.…”

P arkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder that seen in adulthood. Most prevalent symptoms are resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, gait disturbance, and postural abnormalities. The pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease cannot be clearly elucidated. Its proposed that deterioration of dopaminergic neural cells is a multifactorial process. At the present time intracellular-mitochondrial, extracellular and inflammatory/cytokine-related mechanisms are accused of the occurrence of this disease. [1,2] Blood groups first identified in 1900s. Currently there are 36 known blood group systems. Most clinically important are ABO and Rh. Blood group antigens are found on red blood cells, platelets, leukocytes, plasma proteins, certain tissues, and various cell surface enzymes, and also exist in soluble form in body secretions such as breast milk, seminal fluid, saliva, sweat, gastric secretions, urine, and amniotic fluid. [3] ABO blood groups were suggested to be related with several diseases. Disorders related with ABO blood group are infectious disease (cholera, Helicobacter pylori, and Echerichia coli), cardiovascular disease, malignancies and allergic status. [4-6] Introduction: Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative disease that seen in adulthood. Most prevalent symptoms are resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, gait disturbance, and postural abnormalities. Disorders related with ABO blood group are infectious disease (cholera, Helicobacter pylori, and Echerichia coli), cardiovascular disease, malignancies and allergic status. We objectived to elucidate the association between ABO blood group and Parkinson's disease. Methods: We investigated retrospectively the files of 264 adult patients who were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and had blood type between January 2008 and December 2018 in neurology outpatient clinics included in the study. Results: Distribution of blood groups in patients as follows:

“…Blood groups may influence the progress and outcomes of diseases. The blood type O affects the volumes of grey matter in the cerebellum, which might be associated with the decline in cognitive function [13]. A retrospective study was conducted by a Japanese group to analyze the impact of ABO blood group on outcomes in patients with severe trauma.…”

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become the third most common coronavirus that causes large-scale infections worldwide. The correlations between pathogen susceptibility and blood type distribution have attracted attention decades ago. The current retrospective study aimed to examine the correlation between blood type distribution and SARS-CoV-2 infection, progression, and prognosis in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 . With 265 patients from multiple medical centers and two established cohorts, we found that the blood type A population was more sensitive to SARS-CoV-2. Moreover, the blood type distribution was not relevant to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), acute kidney injury (AKI), and mortality in COVID-19 patients. These findings are indicative of coping with the great threat since it probed the relationship between blood types and ARDS, AKI, and mortality, in addition to susceptibility in COVID-19 patients.

“…The relationship between blood groups and diseases is more than a causal relationship. Blood groups may affect disease progression and results (3). Susceptibility to viral infections has been previously found to be associated with the blood group ABO.…”

Objective: The present research aims to evaluate the relationship between blood groups and COVID-19 patients. Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive study, and data of 256 patients with COVID-19 positive were evaluated. In the analysis, the level of statistical significance was accepted as p<0.05. Results: In this research, 62.1% of the patients examined were male, 75.4% were married; 34.8% were in the 30-39 age group, 23.8% were in the 40-49 age group, and the mean age was 37.0±12.2. 33.3% of the patients were high school graduates, 32.9% were primary school graduates, 44.1% had blood group A Rh+, and 21.5% had blood group 0 Rh+. In this research, the findings showed that 85.9% of the patients had symptoms, 49.6% had malaise, 48.0% had joint pain, 32.0% had a history of a positive family member or a positive relative before themselves, and 42.2% had a history of positive case at the workplace before themselves. Conclusion: In this research, the frequency of the blood group A Rh+ was high and the frequency of the blood group 0 Rh+ was low in COVID-19 patients. The mean age of the patients was 37, and number of the patients who needed intensive care was low. There was no difference between the symptom states, according to blood groups. It is recommended that people with blood type A behave more sensitively in terms of following the protection measures.
