Fig 1 Kaplan-Meier curve of mortality after heart transplantation for recipients with blood group AB younger than 55 years stratified by donor blood group. (A) Identical versus compatible; (B) blood group AB compared with blood group A; (C) blood group AB compared with blood group B; and (D) blood group AB compared with blood group O. Donor blood group O had significantly lower mortality than donor blood group AB when tested with Cox regression analysis.
