Resumen
Background
Human platelet antigens (HPA) are clinically significant in transfusion refractoriness, but whether HPA genotypes are associated with cumulative donation frequency or apheresis yield remains unknown.
Methods
We genotyped 1,242 platelet apheresis donors from Harbin, China for eight HPA systems (HPA-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -15, and -21). Outcomes were cumulative donation count and index yield (0.5/1/2 units). Univariate analyses used Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. Multivariable negative binomial and binary logistic regressions adjusted for age, sex, ABO, and ethnicity. Sensitivity analyses excluded first-time donors, stratified by age, and removed the top 5% of donors.
