Prenatal selection and dermatoglyphic patterns.
Although human dermatoglyphics have been extensively studied, little is known of the prenatal origins of dermatoglyphic patterns. Digital patterns, i.e., loops, whorls, and arches, were obtained from 81 human abortuses, ranging in age from 11 to 25 weeks post-fertilization. Patterns were discernible with the earliest indications of epidermal ridge development. Findings indicate that pattern fre...
متن کاملDermatoglyphic Patterns in Cystic Fibrosis Children
OBJECTIVE It is believed that fingerprints and palm patterns may represent genetically determined congenital abnormalities in Cystic Fibrosis (CF). The main idea of this paper was to determine differences of fingerprints and palm patterns in CF and normal children. METHODS Forty-six CF children (27 males, 19 females) and 341 (113 males, 228 females) healthy individuals were recruited for this...
متن کاملDigital dermatoglyphic patterns of Eskimo and Amerindian populations: relationships between geographic, dermatoglyphic, genetic, and linguistic distances.
Dermatoglyphic traits have been used to assess population affinities and structure. Here, we describe the digital patterns of four Eskimo populations from Alaska: two Yupik-speaking villages from St. Lawrence Island and two Inupik groups presently residing on mainland Alaska. For a broader evolutionary perspective, these four Eskimo populations are compared to other Inuit groups, to North Ameri...
متن کاملQuantitative and Qualitative Study of Dermatoglyphic Patterns in Albinism
The changes of dermal ridges in albinism patients were studied. The results obtained from subjects with albinism were compared with healthy subjects. A number of 30 patients were finally selected as our sample sizes. To gain a better understanding the results, a case-control study with the similar number of cases and control was designed. The related statistical test, t-test and chi-square, wer...
متن کاملDermatoglyphic Patterns and Aggressive Periodontal Diseases – A Possible Link ?
Background: Role of host genes in the etiopathogenesis of periodontal diseases have been useful in developing screening tools for identifying patients who are likely to develop disease. With the risk for aggressive periodontal disease being substantially heritable, search for new screening tools are in the forefront. Dermatoglyphics being one such diagnostic tool has been an area of research. A...
