dc.description.abstractBackground: With the increasing importance of personalized patient management, effective analysis of various pa- tient data can play an important role in identifying people at risk of high-burden diseases like diabetes mellitus (DM). By studying the correlation between DM and blood groups, potential risk factors can be identified, leading to person- alized strategies for screening and prevention. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the association between type 2 DM (T2DM) and different blood groups. Materials and Methods: Data were extracted from a population database of Mashhad Health Care Centers, the sec- ond metropolitan city in Iran. From 169,536 individuals who were referred for DM management, data of 6801 persons were extracted. The control group consisted of non-diabetic individuals, who were matched in terms of sex and age. Demographic variables, medical history, and blood groups were obtained. Results: The mean (SD) age of diabetic individuals was 41.3(8.6) years, 80% being overweight or obese. Among T2DM patients, blood type O was the most common, followed by A, and blood type AB had the lowest prevalence (32.7%, 30.6%, and 9.3%, respectively). Compared to the control group, Blood type O showed a higher prevalence in DM (p value = 0.001). Diabetic persons with blood type O had a higher occurrence of T2DM in their family history (p value = 0.01). Conclusion: In patients with T2DM, the most frequent blood type was O, with A coming in second. It seems that those with O+ blood type are more susceptible to developing T2DM. Additionally, differences and inconsistencies have been noted among various countries, hinting at the possible impact of other factors.en_US
