To investigate correlations between ABO/rhesus (Rh) blood group antigens and anti- and anti-cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) seropositivity in blood donors.
A total of 311 blood donors were enrolled. ABO and Rh blood groups were determined using hemagglutination tests. Specific anti- IgG and anti-CagA IgG antibodies in sera were quantitated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Correlations between blood groups and anti- and anti-CagA seropositivity were evaluated using the Chi-square test.
O+ was the most frequent blood type (38%, n = 118). Anti- IgG seropositivity was observed in 240 (77.2%) blood donors, while anti-CagA IgG seropositivity was observed in 132 (42.5%) blood donors. Although seropositivity rates for both anti- and anti-CagA IgG were higher in individuals with blood type O, no statistically significant associations were observed between seropositivity and any ABO/Rh blood groups.
Individuals with blood type O may have higher rates of seropositivity.
调查献血者 ABO/Rh(恒河猴)血型抗原与抗和抗细胞毒素相关基因 A(CagA)血清阳性之间的相关性。
共纳入 311 名献血者。采用血凝试验检测 ABO 和 Rh 血型。通过酶联免疫吸附试验定量检测血清中特异性抗 IgG 和抗 CagA IgG 抗体。采用卡方检验评估血型与抗和抗 CagA 血清阳性之间的相关性。
O+是最常见的血型(38%,n=118)。240 名(77.2%)献血者抗 IgG 血清阳性,132 名(42.5%)献血者抗 CagA IgG 血清阳性。尽管 O 型血个体的抗-和抗-CagA IgG 血清阳性率均较高,但血清阳性与任何 ABO/Rh 血型之间均无统计学显著相关性。
O 型血个体的抗-血清阳性率可能更高。
