Various studies have been done trying to relate ABO blood groups with diseases e.g. Peptic ulcer, duodenal ulcer, pernicious anaemia, gallstones, carcinoma of stomach and IHD. The same blood group antigens are secreted in the body fluids. The blood group antigens have protective action on its secreting mucosa. Some studies have related secretor status with various diseases. Very few studies have been done in India, to relate IHD with ABO blood groups and secretor status. The present study was undertaken to determine, whether the correlation exists between IHD and ABO blood group and secretor status.
Two hundred IHD patients admitted in SJIC, Bangalore were studied for blood group and secretor status and compared with age and sex matched controls. Among the control group 'O' was most common while in the IHD patients, an overall excess of blood group 'A' was found. In the gender difference serum HDL values were significantly higher in females than males. Serum triglyceride values were significantly higher in blood group 'A' compared to other groups. IHD cases have been divided into MI and non MI group and its relation has been observed with blood group. There was significant excess of Myocardial infarction in blood group 'O' and 'B'.
In this study we have not observed any significant relation of IHD with secretor status.

In a prospective study of 4280 births in Vanivilas Hospital, Bangalore Medical College, Bangalore 61 cases of congenital malformations were observed with an Incidence of 14.25/1000 live births. A total of 117 malformations were observed. Among these 95 were major and 22 were of minor type. The central nervous system, gastro-intestinal and multiple system involvement were the commonest with 12 cases each (19.67%), followed by musculoskeletal 11 (18.03%), cardio-vascular 4 (6.56%), genito urinary 02 (3.30%) cases), cutaneous 1 (1.64%) and 07 (11.49%) cases were miscellaneous. Malformations in the new born males were 52.46%, in females it was 45.90% and 1.64% are of ambiguous genitalia thereby showing male preponderance. Maximum of 42 cases (68.85%) were born to non-consanguineous group and 19 cases (31.15%) were to consanguineous couples.Keywords
