There are many reports regarding association between ABO and Rhesus blood groups and coronary artery disease. This study has been designed to see the association of ABO blood group with coronary artery disease in patient who were admitted in Cardiology Department of Dhaka Medical College and Hospital and undergoing coronary angiography. A total of 680 patients were studied in this retrospective study. ABO blood group, gender and standard cardiovascular risk factors were determined. In our study 17.5% of the study population were female with mean age of 49.94±10.37 years and 82.5% were male with a mean age 49.68±10.45 years . Most of the patients belonged to blood group B (33.4%) .Our results demonstrated the prevalence of CAD in blood group B is much higher than other blood groups which is in contrast with other studies in few other countries including one study done on small groups of people in Bangladesh. Geographical distribution may explain the variation in results among countries.University Heart Journal Vol. 10, No. 2, July 2014; 81-84

In the past, the relationship between coronary artery disease (CAD) and been studied extensively. The ABO blood group has a significant effect on homeostasis and is therefore associated with adverse cardiovascular events. This study aimed to determine the distribution of ABO blood group and rhesus (Rh) status (ABO/Rh) in patients with different severity of CAD in Iranian community. A total of 1,236 CAD patients undergoing angiography were evaluated and their ABO/Rh blood type was determined in a study center between February 2005 and December 2010. Of the 1,236 records, only 1,046 medical documents recorded the number of involved vessels. The patients were classified according to the number of significantly affected stenotic vessels into single vessel (1VD), two vessels (2VD), and three vessels (3VD) disease subgroups. A substantially different ABO/Rh blood groups distribution was seen in the examined samples (O: 29.7%, A: 39.7%, B: 22.2%, AB: 8.3%, Rh positivity: 89.2%). The ABO/Rh blood group phenotype distribution in CAD patients with 1VD, 2VD, and 3VD was as follows: 37.5%, 41.3%, and 41.5%, respectively, for group A; 24.1%, 20.5%, and 20.6%, respectively, for group B; 31.2%, 26.8%, and 30.2%, respectively, for group O; 7.1%, 11.4% and 7.7%, respectively, for group AB (p = 0.26), and 88.7%, 90.5%, and 87.6%, respectively, for Rh positivity, (p = 0.47).  In addition, no significant correlation was not found among the ABO/Rh blood group distribution and the number of vessels involved, however, according to the different distribution of ABO/Rh blood group in CAD patients and healthy population, ABO/Rh might have an unknown role in CAD patients.

Background:Vitamin D deficiency is widely prevalent in this part of the country, in spite of the fact that there is ample sunshine and the economic status of the people is good. Several studies have suggested possible link between vitamin D deficiency and cardiovascular disease risk. Hence authors evaluated the patients with established coronary artery disease attending cardiology department of super speciality hospital, Government Medical College Jammu, for their vitamin D status. Methods:The study was conducted in the department of Biochemistry Government Medical College Jammu and data of established cases of coronary artery disease patients attending cardiology department of super speciality hospital, government medical college Jammu was analyzed for vitamin D levels during the period from January 2019 to February, 2020.Results: A total of 200 established cases of coronary artery disease comprising of 130 male patients and 70 female patients were analyzed in the study, out of 200 cases, 190 (95%) were found to be having low levels of vitamin D in their blood (<30 ngm/dl). 123 (94.6%) out of a total of 130 male patients had vitamin D deficiency as compared to 67 (95.7%) out of 70 females patients.Conclusions:The study has revealed a very high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in established cases of coronary artery diseases. More detailed prospective studies are required to unravel the association of vitamin D and its role in prevention of coronary artery diseases in the absence of well-established risk factors like smoking, Diabetes, Hypertension and dyslipidaemias.

Introduction Coronary artery disease is the major cause of death all over the world. There are studies suggesting association between blood group and coronary artery disease. We attempted to study the frequency of ABO blood group and its association with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in our hospital. MethodsThis is a retrospective, cross sectional study carried out in Manmohan Cardiothoracic Vascular and Transplant Centre from March 2018 to February 2019. Patients who were admitted with diagnosis of ACS were enrolled in the study. Data were recorded and analyzed using SPSS 20. Association between blood group and ACS was analyzed using chi square test and logistic regression. ResultsTotal 430 patients were admitted with diagnosis of ACS during the study period, of which 307 (71.4 %) were male and Mean age was 61.22 years (±10.75). Blood group O was the most common type of blood group observed in 207 (48%) patients. ACS was significantly higher in blood group O compared to other groups after adjusting for normal ABO blood group prevalence in general population: blood group O vs. A (OR: 3.45, 95% CI: 2.48- 4.79, p- <0.001), blood group O vs. B (OR: 5.08, 95% CI: 3.53-7.33, p- <0.001), blood group AB vs. O (OR: 0.65, 95% CI: 0.41- 1.02, p- 0.064). Individuals with blood group O and B had increased risk of having STEMI and NSTEMI where as those with blood group A had increased risk of having unstable angina. ConclusionThere was association between ABO blood group and coronary artery disease. Individuals with blood group O have increased incidence of ACS.

Background and objectives: ABO blood group distribution defers with racial and geographic variations. They are related with diseases like cardiovascular diseases, cerebral thromboembolism. Prothrombin time may varies among ABO blood group system which may increase the future risk of thrombosis. The present study is to assess prothrombin time among ABO blood groups in healthy adults. Materials and methods: A prospective type of analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka from July 2019 to June 2020. After obtaining ethical clearance, a total 190 healthy adults were selected from different areas of Dhaka city based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, with age ranging from 18-45 years. The subjects were interviewed and detailed history regarding personal, family, medical and drug were taken. Prior to sample collection, informed written consent was taken from the participants. Individuals of blood group A was selected as group A, blood group B as group B, blood group AB as group AB and blood group O as group O. Prothrombin time was measured in the Department of Hematology and BMT Unit, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka. Blood grouping was done in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka.For statistical analysis, One way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni test were considered using SPSS 25.0 version. Results: In this study, blood group B was most common (33.2%). Prothrombin time was lower in blood group A (12.93±0.30 sec), B (12.92±0.61 sec), AB (12.98±0.54 sec) than blood group O (13.08±0.39 sec) which was not statistically significant. Conclusion: It can be concluded that blood group A, B, AB individuals may have more chance of thrombosis due to lower prothrombin time than blood group O individuals.
