“…4,5 Fingerprints can stay on the surface by transferring oil or amino acids, substances that are on the fingers such as paint or blood, or by giving certain materials that will be printed to the surface so that fingerprint patterns can be read and studied. 6 Patients with hereditary disease, especially the diseases caused by chromosome aberration, will have a distinctive dermatoglyphics. 7 Fingerprints can be used to identify people with genetic predispositions for the development of certain diseases 5,8 .…”

Atopy stigmataoccurin individual with hypersensitivity state that is related with the formation of excessive serum IgE thatdetermined by genetic factor. The dermatoglyphic pattern is formed prenatally and remains unchanged throughout the lifetime. It can help to establish the diagnosis of genetic diseases, such as stigmata of atopy. The aim of this study was to determine the specific pattern of dermatoglyphics in patient with stigmata of atopy and to determineits relationship with serum IgE level. This study was an analytical study with a cross-sectional design. The dermatoglyphic patterns of patients with atopic stigmata were collected.Weexaminedthe pattern of loop, whorl or arc on right and left hand. IgE levels were measured with Elisa method. Data were analyzed statistically. Loop is the most frequent dermatoglyphic patternon right and left hand (58.52% ; 63.70%) followed by whorl (31.85% ; 28.89%)and arc (9.63%;7.41%). There was no relationship between the pattern of dermatoglyphics andserum IgElevel (p>0.05). Pattern of loop, whorl and arc is not different between atopic and non atopic group. This pattern classificationis the most frequently usedindermatoglyphic. Others pattern such as total pattern count, cores, radiant, atd angle, a-b ridgecanbe used to determine the specific pattern in specific diseases. Apart from genetic factor, dermatoglyphic pattern are also influenced by ethnic and geographical factor. There was no specific dermatoglyphicpattern in an atopic patients and this pattern was also not associated with serum IgE level.

Background: Dermatoglyphics is branch of medical science, which deals with the study of epidermal ridges and their configuration on the palmer region of hand and finger and planter region of foot and toes. Inspection of skin ridges provide a simple, inexpensive means of information to determine whether a given patient could have a particular chromosomal defect. Amenorrhea is defined primary when menarche does not occur by the age of 16 years in a girl with complete secondary sexual development. In the present study an attempt has been made to correlate primary amenorrhea and dermatoglyphics. Method: 40 normal females with primary amenorrhea were taken as case and 40 normal females with normal menstrual cycle were taken for study. Dermatoglyphic prints were obtained using ink method. Result: The mean value of atd angle shows statistically significant increase in patients than that of controls. Frequency of thenar/ ID 1 pattern, ID2area, ID3area, IDarea in a both right and left hands of primary amenorrhea patients and in control is insignificant. Similarly, there is increased frequency of hypothenar area pattern in patients as compared to controls in left hand, which is found to be statistically significant, Conclusion: Primary amenorrhoea and Dermatoglyphics, both have the suspected multifactorial (genetic and environmental) aetiologies. Dermatoglyphics, due to their suspected genetic aetiology. use for prognosis of disease and also the identification of people with the genetic predisposition to develop certain disease or early onset of symptoms.
