A study was carried out on students of the University of Dschang, Cameroon, to examine the relationship between ABO blood group, rhesus factor and prevalence of infection.
Blood group and rhesus factor were typed by agglutination using antisera while malaria infection was determined using Rapid Diagnostic Test CareStart malaria HRP2 Out of 620 students 582 were screened for ABO blood group and Rhesus factor, and 276 were tested for infection.
Faculty of Science (FS) members and male students were highly represented, with 356 (61.2% ) and 303 (52.1%) participants, respectively. Blood group O was most common (48.8%), followed by blood group A (25.8%), B (23.0%) and AB (2.4%). Total percentage of rhesus positive was 92.4%, and its distribution varied across ABO blood groups. Of the 276 students examined for malaria infection, 27 were found positive (9.8%). Except for blood group AB individuals, of which none were infected, malaria infection did not vary among blood groups.
Rhesus factor and blood group did not impact on malaria infection in the hypo-endemic highland area of Dschang, Cameroon.
对喀麦隆雅温得大学的学生进行了一项研究,以探讨ABO血型、恒河猴因子与感染率之间的关系。
使用抗血清通过凝集反应对血型和恒河猴因子进行分型,同时使用快速诊断检测CareStart疟疾HRP2测定疟疾感染情况。在620名学生中,582名接受了ABO血型和恒河猴因子筛查,276名接受了感染检测。
科学学院(FS)成员和男学生占比很高,分别有356名(61.2%)和303名(52.1%)参与者。O型血最为常见(48.8%),其次是A型血(25.8%)、B型血(23.0%)和AB型血(2.4%)。恒河猴阳性的总百分比为92.4%,其分布在不同ABO血型中有所不同。在接受疟疾感染检测的276名学生中,有27名呈阳性(9.8%)。除AB型血个体无人感染外,不同血型之间的疟疾感染情况没有差异。
在喀麦隆雅温得低流行高地地区,恒河猴因子和血型对疟疾感染没有影响。
