MEDICAL- SCIENCE - NEWS

An old finding of 1959 ( with statistical significance ) reorted a-new:
Western people with their (prevalent) blood - group A, are more prone to cancer of Gastro-intestinal tract and the finding was supported with statical significance. It was even suggested in the thesis that dieases were due to inherent predisposition in their 'blood' rather than external factors.(the thesis can be traced in Delhi-Univrsity M.d -course section, under the title 'ABO-Blood grous and Diseases', done by Dr.p . Basu for his M.D degree ( statistically proved in Cancer-tongue cases).
This was the period when Watson-Creek were deely involved (as revealed later) in the Genetic search (& DNA) . The present reorting back is done with the good-will -motive of making a review-study in Euroian and American whites who are of A-blood group and who have proved Cancer of G.I tract(hospital records). Making statistical survey at National level , a definite confirmation or rejection of this 'forgotten-aspect, can be done finally.
