Introduction:  Research on the association between blood groups and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in Africa, including Algeria, is notably limited, with a primary focus on blood donors. This narrow scope hinders a comprehensive understanding of the genetic diversity of blood groups and their potential links to CVD risk within the African context. To bridge this knowledge gap, this study proposes to investigate the distribution of blood group genotypes and their association with CVD prevalence, aiming to enhance knowledge within the African context and contribute to global insights into the relationship between blood groups and CVD.

Background: This study aimed to explore variations in prenatal care, delivery methods, influencing factors, and neonatal outcomes among Rh-negative pregnant women, so as to improve pregnancy healthcare for this demographic, raise the quality of maternal-fetal management, and safeguard the health of both mother and infant.

Methods: This study included 200 women who received routine prenatal care, exhibited no other pregnancy complications, and were admitted for delivery. They were divided into an observation group (100 Rh-negative blood type) and a control group (100 Rh-positive blood type).

Article Synopsis
  • * It involved 60 young female college students, divided into four groups based on blood type (A, B, AB, O), who underwent Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission (DPOAE) testing at various frequencies.
  • * The findings indicated no significant differences in the DPOAE input-output function across the different blood groups, suggesting blood type does not impact auditory function in this context.

Article Synopsis
  • Neonatal jaundice is more prevalent and complex in low and middle-income countries, with limited data on its prevalence in Ethiopia.
  • A study conducted in Bahir Dar city found that 38.8% of the 340 neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit had jaundice.
  • Key factors contributing to neonatal jaundice included being male, prematurity, maternal blood type (especially Rh negative or AB), and ABO incompatibility, indicating a need for improved antenatal blood testing and accessible treatment options.

Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas (ICBIM), Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU), Uberlândia, MG, Brazil. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the frequency of alloimmunization among patients at a Brazilian university hospital, focusing on demographic and clinical characteristics of those with positive irregular antibody screenings.
  • Findings reveal that women were more likely to be alloimmunized, with common blood groups A and O, and anti-D, anti-E, and anti-Kell antibodies frequently detected.
  • The research emphasizes the importance of thorough antibody screening and erythrocyte immunophenotyping to enhance the safety and effectiveness of blood transfusions in clinical settings.
