Abstract

Abstract

Background/Aims:Parkinson's disease  is a common 
neurodegenerative disease that seen in adulthood. Most prevelant
symptoms are  resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia
,gait disturbance, and postural abnormalities.Disorders related with  ABO 
blood group are infectious disease(cholera,helicobacter
pylori,echerichia coli),cardiovascular disease,malignancies and allergic
status.We objectived to elucidate the association between ABO  blood group and Parkinson's disease

Materials -Methods: We
investigated  retrospectively the files
of 264 adult patients  who were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and had blood type between
January 2008 and December 2018 in neurology outpatient clinics included
in the study

Results: Distribution
of  blood groups in patients as follows :
ARh(+): 94(%35,6),

ARh(-):15(%5,7),BRh(+):44(%16,7),BRh(-):8(%3),
ABRh(+):18(%6,8),

 ABRh(-):4(%1,5),0Rh(+):71(%26,9),0Rh(-):10(%3,8)

Conclusions: When we consider the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease , we think  of  the antigenic structure of blood groups may be effective in this process.
