Blood Type In addition to O Called More at Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke

Research conducted by a team from the University Medical Center, Groningen, Netherlands, mentions there is a correlation between blood groups with the potential for heart disease. People with blood type non O (A, B, AB) are said to have a higher risk of heart attack and stroke than people with blood type O.

The conclusion is based on the analysis of more than 1.3 million people. Based on the results of the analysis, people with blood types other than 0 have the possibility of cardiovascular disorders, such as heart attacks and strokes, reaching more than nine percent. Nevertheless, this conclusion is not final. The reason. The research team has not been able to ascertain whether these two variables have a direct causal correlation or any other effect.

For that, further research is needed on the correlation. '' Mentioned, people with non-O blood group have a higher risk of heart attack and death lift due to cardiovascular as a whole. However, this sara is derived from case studies with controls that have a fairly low level of evidence. If this can be confirmed further, it can have an impact on the type of treatment given to a person, '' said lead researcher Tessa Kole, as quoted by Science Alert, Wednesday (3/5).

Nevertheless, from the study at least it can be concluded there is a possibility of correlation between a person's blood type and the level of risk of cardiovascular disorders. Blood type is determined before the person is born and formed based on a specific mixture of antibodies and antigens present in the blood cells.
