“…Earlier studies were already proved the association of dermatoglyphic traits and diabetics mellitus [30][31][32][33][34]. Apart from those, fewer dermatoglyphic investigations were reported on T2DM.Studiesdemonstrated higher frequency of ulnar loop, radial loop, composite, plain arch, hypothenar pattern, as well as polymorphic nature of palmar C line and higher presence of 4th interdigital pattern among the T2DM patients [39,40] [38]. Contrary to that, Sharma and Sharma demonstrated no significant difference in ABRC between diabetic patients and controls [34].…”

“…Apart from the detection of chromosomal and congenital aberrations several dermatoglyphic studies also proved the relation of unusual dermatoglyphic traits with diabetes mellitus [30][31][32][33][34][35]. However, very fewworks have been reported on T2DM patients, especially in context of Eastern India [36][37][38][39][40].In addition to those, present study was incorporated a-b ridge count (ABRC), c-d ridge count (CDRC), presence of multiple number of axial triradii (t, t' & t") on the same palm, td ridge count (TDRC), atd angle, btd angle and ctd angle to understand the relation between dermatoglyphics and T2DM.…”

BackgroundDermatoglyphics is frequently used in understanding the proximity with non-communicable diseases including diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common non-communicable diseases all over the world. The present study is an attempt to understand the association of palmer dermatoglyphic traits [i.e. a-b ridge count (ABRC), c-d ridge count (CDRC), presence of multiple number of axial triradii (t, t' & t") in a single palm, td ridge count (TDRC), atd angle, btd angle and ctd angle] with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Material and methodsSubjects included 30 clinically diagnosed adult female T2DM patients and 60 healthy controls from the Bengalee Hindu Caste population of West Bengal, India. Bilateral palm prints were collected following standard ink and roller method. Results Present study revealed that T2DM patients have significantly (p<0.05) lower ABRC, CDRC and TDRC. On the other hand, significantly (p<0.05) higher presence of multiple number of axial triradii t, t' & t" was found in the palm of T2DM patients compared to the controls. T2DM patients also demonstrated significantly (p<0.05) higher values of atd and btd angle. However, T2DM patients demonstrated significantly (p<0.05) lower value of ctd angle than that of controls, only when both hand were considered. ConclusionThe results the present study indicated that dermatoglyphic traits may be used for early identification of at risk individuals for surveillance with a view to prevent the disease onset.Journal of Biomedical Sciences, Vol. 3, No. 2, 2016
