Abstract

Background and Aims: This study aims to investigate the associations of blood groups on Long-Term COVID patients who applied to the COVID-19 Follow-up Center. New comorbidities after COVID-19 were also evaluated. Methods: This study was designed retrospectively with patients who were admitted COVID-19 Follow-up Centre between 13th December 2020 and 01st November 2021. The study sample consisted of 502 patients divided into four groups according to their blood types. Patients were analyzed according to their symptoms and our findings after COVID-19 by blood group variable. Newly diagnosed co-morbidities were asked to our patients and the drug history of the patients was investigated Results: A total of 502 COVID-19 patients were retrospectively analyzed and the mean age was 55.5(±13.2) years. Patients were predominantly female (263/502) [52.4%]. While long-term COVID-19 symptoms were observed in 76.9% of the patients, extreme fatigue (46.2%) and ongoing shortness of breath (32.9%) were observed most frequently. When the long-term COVID symptoms were evaluated, heart palpitation was the only symptom related to blood groups A and B compared to AB and O (p=0.048). No significant relationship was found between the blood groups of the patients and the symptoms and course of the disease. In addition, there was no significant difference in the ongoing symptoms and inflammatory parameters like C-Reactive Protein and Lymphocyte. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that there was no difference between blood types and long-term COVID-19 patients' clinical features.

Özet

Giriş ve Amaçlar: Bu çalışma, COVID-19 İzlem Merkezine başvuran Uzun Süreli COVID hastalarında kan grupları arasındaki ilişkilerin araştırılmasını amaçlamaktadır. COVID-19 sonrası yeni komorbiditeler de değerlendirilmiştir. Yöntemler: Bu çalışma, 13 Aralık 2020 ile 01 Kasım 2021 tarihleri arasında COVID-19 İzlem Merkezi'ne başvuran hastalar ile retrospektif olarak tasarlandı. Çalışmanın örneklemini, kan gruplarına göre 4 gruba ayrılan 502 hasta oluşturdu. Hastalar kan grubu değişkenine göre COVID-19 sonrası semptomlarına ve bulgularımıza göre analiz edildi. Hastalarımıza yeni tanı konulan komorbid hastalıkları soruldu ve hastaların ilaç öyküsü araştırıldı. Bulgular: Toplam 502 COVID-19 hastası retrospektif olarak incelendi ve yaş ortalaması 55,5(±13,2) idi. Hastalar ağırlıklı olarak kadındı (263/502) [%52.4]. Hastaların %76,9'unda uzun süreli COVID-19 semptomları görülürken, en sık aşırı yorgunluk (%46,2) ve devam eden nefes darlığı (%32,9) görüldü. Uzun süreli COVID semptomları değerlendirildiğinde, AB ve O'ya kıyasla A ve B kan grupları ile ilişkili tek semptom kalp çarpıntısıydı (p=0,048). Hastaların kan grupları ile hastalığın semptomları ve seyri arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmadı. Ayrıca devam eden semptomlarda ve C-Reaktif Protein ve Lenfosit gibi inflamatuar parametrelerde anlamlı fark yoktu. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, kan grupları ile uzun süreli COVID-19 hastalarının klinik özellikleri arasında fark olmadığını göstermiştir.
