Blood Types and the Population. O positive is the most common blood type. Not all ethnic groups have the same mix of these blood types. Hispanic people, for example, have a relatively high number of Oâs, while Asian people have a relatively high number of Bâs.The mix of the different blood types in the U.S. population is:n addition to the A and B antigens, there is a third antigen called the Rh factor, which can be either present (+) or absent (â). In general, Rh negative blood is given to Rh-negative patients, and Rh positive blood or Rh negative blood may be given to Rh positive patients.
Medical Definition of LENTIGO. 1. : a small melanotic spot in the skin in which the formation of pigment is unrelated to exposure to sunlight and which is potentially malignant; especially: nevusâcompare freckle. 2. : freckle.
Lentigines are hyperpigmented macules or patches that can resemble nevi (moles). Usually pale tan to brown, they typically appear in white adults and increase in number with advancing age (Fig. 4). Lentigines tend to occur on the sun-exposed skin of the face, neck, upper trunk, forearms, and hands.evi are common benign growths, usually hyperpigmented or skin-colored macules, papules, or small plaques, probably derived from proliferating altered melanocytes (nevus cells). Age, race, and genetic and environmental factors (primarily sun exposure) all contribute to the development of nevi for any particular patient.
