Description
Could blood type sway the course of a cervical HPV infection? Ramazan Adan and co-authors reviewed records of 128 HPV-positive women in 2026, comparing their ABO and Rh blood groups against HPV genotypes, cervical cell findings, and colposcopy results. A historical donor population of 123,900 people served as the reference.
Blood group A appeared less often among the HPV-positive women than among donors, and group AB appeared more often; the overall distribution differed significantly. But within the patient group, blood type showed no link to which HPV genotype a woman carried, how her cells looked, or what colposcopy found. The authors call the findings preliminary. A distribution quirk in who tests positive, they stress, is not yet evidence that blood type changes the disease itself.
