Background: The investigation of the correlation between ABO blood groups and susceptibility to infectious diseases, particularly COVID-19 and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), has garnered significant scholarly attention in recent studies. This study aimed to evaluate the association between ABO blood groups and H. pylori infection with COVID-19 susceptibility and severity. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2023. During this period, serum samples from 1,105 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 at hospitals affiliated with Shiraz University of Medical Sciences were analyzed for SARS-CoV-2 and H. pylori antibodies using the enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique. Clinical data, including demographic characteristics and manifestations of COVID-19, were collected through structured interviews and comprehensive reviews of medical records. Results: The prevalence of COVID-19 was significantly higher among individuals with blood group A compared to other groups (P=0.032). Patients co-infected with H. pylori had more severe COVID-19 symptoms (P=0.021). The findings from this investigation reveal that blood group O is correlated with an increased risk for both COVID-19 and H. pylori infections, whereas blood group AB demonstrates a reduced susceptibility to COVID-19, although this does not imply definitive protective. Noteworthy associations were identified between ABO blood groups and specific COVID-19 symptoms, including headache, chronic underlying conditions, chest discomfort, and sore throat. The hospitalization among patients with blood group AB was higher than that observed in other blood groups (10.8%), while it was notably lower in patients with blood group O (4.6%, P=0.038). Conclusion: Our findings suggest a significant association between ABO blood groups, H. pylori infection, and susceptibility to COVID-19. These factors may contribute to disease severity and warrant further investigation for potential clinical implications. | ||
