Association between D Antigen (Rhesus Factor) with Lower Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressures in “O” Blood Group | Chapter 4 | Current Innovations in Disease and Health Research Vol. 6

 This study was attended to find the association between D irritant or Rhesus factor (Rh factor) and low ancestry pressures (LBP) in O blood group participants. An arranged and focused study of potential genetic relationships can reveal singular conclusions regarding the remarks from this research and similar inspections.

Study about Distribution of Blood Groups and Haemoglobin Percentage among the Students of Government Science College, Chitradurga, Karnataka, India | Chapter 6 | New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 5

 The study's goal was to assess the prevalence and distribution of ABO and Rh blood type patterns, as well as haemoglobin percentage, among Government Science College students in Chitradurga, Karnataka, based on age and sex, and compare this to data from other research. Blood is a haemoglobin-containing fluid that flows throughout the body, transporting oxygen and nutrients from the lungs and gastrointestinal tract. It returns carbon dioxide to the lungs and other metabolic products to the kidneys. It regulates body temperature and distributes hormones and other substances necessary for maintaining homeostasis. The determination of blood groups and knowledge of distribution are critical for good inventory management in blood banks, which is critical for human health. There are currently 25 different blood groups that can be determined. Incompatibility between the mother and her embryo might cause problems. Blood types are linked to some physiological issues. A low haemoglobin (Hb) level in the blood (less than 130 g/L) is characterised as anaemia. The researchers looked at the distribution of blood types and haemoglobin percentage levels among 18 to 21-year-old college students. The blood group order in the selected age range was O>A>B>AB, with a high Rh+ factor and an average haemoglobin percentage of 13.4g/dl in males and 11.68g/dl in females.

Assessment of Rhesus D Distribution in Blood Group of Individuals and the Relationship with Bleeding Time | Chapter 4 | Recent Advances in Science and Technology Research Vol. 8

In randomly selected subjects from Niger Delta University, Bayelsa State, Nigeria, the relationship between rhesus factor and bleeding time in blood group O was investigated using standard antisera and Duke's system. The O+ group had a shorter bleeding time (1.32 ± 0.41 min) than the O- group (1.33 ± 0.37 min). Gender-wise, females in the O+ group had shorter bleeding times (1.30 ± 0.40 min) than males in the O+ group (1.34 ± 0.42 min), and males in the O- blood group had shorter bleeding times (1.20 ± 0.39 min) than females in the O- group (1.39 ± 0.37 min). The same gender comparison reveals that males in the O+ group had a longer bleeding period (1.34 ± 0.42 min) than males in the O- group (1.20 ± 0.39 min) and females with blood type O+ had a shorter bleeding time (1.30 ± 0.40 min) than females in the O- group (1.39 ± 0.37 min). At p< 0.05, all these variations found were statistically important. In conclusion, the current research shows that individuals in the blood group O+ typically have shorter bleeding periods than O-. In O+ males, bleeding time is prolonged compared to O+ females and prolonged in O- females compared to O- males. O+ males seem to have longer bleeding time within the gender than O- males, while O+ females have shorter bleeding time than O- females. In conclusion, in blood group O individuals, the presence of antigen D (rhesus factor) tends to be associated with decreased bleeding time relative to blood group O individuals without rhesus factor. However, the latest investigation has not demonstrated the same pattern in males. To elucidate these findings, we propose further studies: an elaborate general and gender-based analysis on potential genetic interactions between VwF and antigen D.
