ABO blood type concordance‐dependent variations in umbilical cord blood: Insights from twin pregnancies

Key Points

To explore how ABO blood type concordance affects the yield of umbilical cord blood (UCB) in twin pregnancies.
Analyzed umbilical cord blood samples from twin pregnancies
Assessed cellular yield based on ABO blood type concordance
Compared hematopoietic stem cell recovery potential among different twin types
ABO blood type concordance significantly enhances cellular yield of UCB
Twins with matching ABO blood types show superior hematopoietic stem cell recovery potential
Implications for better cord blood banking practices due to increased yield

Abstract

ABO-BTC significantly influences UCB cellular yield, with ABO-BTD twins offering superior hematopoietic stem cell recovery potential for cord blood banking and clinical use.
