Abstract :
In the past decades, several studies have suggested the possibility of ABO blood groups antigens to participate in pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD), especially acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death (1-3). Association between ABO blood groups and stable CAD has been significantly less investigated. That is why we read the paper of Kaya et al.
