| Abstract |
A higher incidence of Rhesus group D (RHD)-negative blood group among patients with Small Cell Cancer of the lung (SCLC) had been previously reported but reproducibility was not confirmed, and clinical relevance is undefined. We tested 1,090 (SCLC; Adenocarcinoma: Squamous = 202:536:352) cases of lung cancer over a 3-year period at a single institution and noted a higher frequency RHD negative status among SCLC cases (19/89) compared with non-SCLC (61/480) that could not be explained by differences in ethnic background in the patient population. While we confirmed poor ECOG functional status, advanced stage, elevated alkaline phosphatase, and low albumin levels as independent and significant factors for reduced overall survival (OS), we did not detect any clinical outcome correlations with RHD status in our dataset. Patients with SCLC rarely undergo surgical resection resulting in limited data for blood group analyses. We have now detected a higher rate of RHD-negative status in patients with SCLC compared with all other subtypes of lung cancer. The clinical and biological basis for this observation is undefined and we feel that this may be explained by variations in ethnic background. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 September 2018.
All research outputs
#22,767,715
of 25,385,509 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in oncology
#15,925
of 22,432 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#304,196
of 347,461 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in oncology
#148
of 187 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,385,509 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 22,432 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 347,461 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 187 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
