Zusammenfassung:LEVINE1 has shown that the incidence of erythroblastosis fÅ"talis in any race is directly proportional to the frequency of negative reactions with anti-Rh0 serum. Racial differences in the incidence of Rh agglutinogen have already been described, and clinical observations have confirmed the existence of a close correlation between the distribution of the Rh factor and the frequency of hæmolytic disease of the newborn.
