摘要Objective To investigate whether ABO blood groups is associated with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods Between January 2015 and December 2017,1425 first diagnosed CAD patients confirned by selective coronary angiography were recruited into this cross-sectional study,and their baseline characteristics,ABO blood groups,Gensini score were collected.Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to test the association between the severity of CAD and ABO blood groups.Results The Gensini score was significantly higher in the blood group A than in the non-A groups (41.2 ± 32 vs.38 ± 27;P =0.026).After adjusting for age,male,smoking,family history of CAD,hypertension,diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia,multivariate linear regression indicated that blood group A was associated with the severity of CAD (β =3.298,95％ CI:0.91-6.505,P =0.044).In diabetes group,A blood type was also associated with increased Gensini score (P =0.02) after adjusting for age,male,family history of CAD,hypercholesterolemia,smoking and hypertension.Conclusion In this cross-sectional study,the data indicated that blood group A was an independem risk factor of severity of CAD in Chinese population and Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes.
