Association between ABO Blood Group Phenotype and Reaction to Academic Stress in Young Medical Students

Introduction: Professional medical education needs hard work, good physical and mental health. In previous studies there is no scientific consensus that a relationship exists between the ABO blood group and personality traits. In this current study we tried to find out association between different blood groups and different type of stressors like physical, environmental, interpersonal and academic in young medical students. Material and methods: This Descriptive Cross sectional study was conducted at Rashid Latif Medical College Lahore from April to May 2019. A modified pre structured, valid and reliable questionnaire SSI was used to access the physical, academic, environmental, interpersonal stress, blood group and gender of 1st year and 2nd year MBBs students. Initially 220 (91 male and 129 female) were enrolled. Results: A total of 216 medical students filled in the survey out of 220 students, 126 students (n=126) were female and (n=90) were male who completed the questionnaire; the response rate was 98.18%. Out of 216 students blood group A was 32, AB was 42, B was 92 and O was 50. A greater variation in the response was observed in the physical category (St: deviation 10.40), while the least variation was observed in the category of interpersonal (St: deviation 5.27), respondents while the variation tends to increase in environment (St: deviation 6.78) and academic (St: deviation 7.20). Conclusion: All variables stressors like Physical, academic, environment and interpersonal are found to have negative and insignificant relationship with dependent variable blood group.
