    Determining a person's blood type based on genetic tests rather than traditional blood tests can better understand the risk of cardiovascular disease


    "There is a huge difference in the risk of blood clots, depending on if someone has a genetic variant of one or two blood types, AB or B.


    A person may have one of four blood types: A, B, AB, or o


    The currently published research shows that genetic variants that individuals obtain from their parents can also affect the risk of disease


    Like previous studies, this study shows that people with blood type O have a lower risk of cardiovascular disease (such as blood clots) than people with other blood types


    "Because both a and B mask the O gene, they cannot be detected in routine blood tests


    Another finding of this study is that researchers can see that people with different blood types have different levels of multiple proteins in their bodies


    "Our research results show that by using the determination of the patient's blood type and blood type inheritance as the standard, we will be able to detect and start treatment of the disease at an early stage, which can prevent or delay serious complications
