    Abstract

    To evaluate lipid profile in ABO blood group phenotypes. Materials and Method: This prospective study was conducted to find the association between different blood groups and their lipid profile, which can further be used for the strategy for prevention of risk factor of cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. Results: The mean cholesterol was significantly highest in individuals with blood group O (149.86±25.96) and lowest in individuals with blood group AB (92.79±26.93). The mean triglyceride was highest in O blood group (144.67±24.57) and lowest in AB blood group (108.67±32.70). The mean LDL was significantly highest in individuals with blood group O (108.50±24.01) and lowest in individuals with blood group AB (67.35±31.63). The mean VLDL was highest in O blood group (26.09±3.94) and lowest in AB blood group (21.71±4.65). The mean HDL was highest in B blood group (41.25±13.33) and lowest in O blood group (28.78±8.65). The mean cholesterol/HDL ratio was highest in individuals with blood group O (5.57±1.45) and lowest in individuals with blood group AB (3.34±1.02). Conclusion: The lipid profile has been found to vary significantly in different blood groups. As the levels of cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, VLDL and HDL are directly associated with various cardiovascular diseases, the blood group of an individual can be used as a predictor for the development of those diseases.
