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.

The rhesus factor D (RhD)-negative patients who give birth to an RhD-positive newborn or who are otherwise exposed to RhD-positive red blood cells are at risk of developing anti-D antibodies. These antibodies may cause hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). During pregnancy, prevention of alloimmunization is completed with a Rho(D) immune globulin (RhIg).
