Influence of ABO genotype and phenotype on angiotensin-converting enzyme plasma activity [PDF]
ABO rs495828 polymorphism has recently been associated with risk of hypertension and cough induced by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, which could be due to low ACE plasma activity.

Separation axioms for partially ordered convergence spaces
In partially ordered convergence spaces, separation axioms are introduced and then related to the concept of complete separatedness due to Nachbin as well as to connectedness concepts. A method to generate new separation axioms is studied.

ABO phenotype and death in critically ill patients with COVID‐19
Blood groups are inherited traits that vary across populations, likely due to both founder effects and natural selection. A link between blood groups and susceptibility to infectious disease has been well-described, with notable examples being H.

ABO blood groups are not associated with the risk of acquiring SARS-CoV-2 infection in young adults
Four studies have previously implicated ABO blood groups in susceptibility to COVID-19 (symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection). This study assessed a large population of 1,769 crewmembers confined to an aircraft carrier who, therefore, constituted an ...
