Abstract
The presence of D variant among minorities could produce a higher rate of alloimmunization observed in patients from this group. This is partly due to the ethnic and racial specificity of RHD variants and the limited availability of Rh-matched blood donors. Approximately half a million African migrants in China carrying distinct Rh blood type composition have presented to the health care system with an imperative safety requirement of blood transfusion among 1.3 billion Chinese individuals. We depict the clinically significant RHD alleles among African migrants living in China and identify the genetic similarities and disparities to Chinese. We discussed practical strategies to manage the unique transfusion needs of African migrants in China.
