“…Sangam et al, 13 Deopa et al, 14 and Desai et al 15 found a higher incidence of loops (60.5%, 64.53% and 52.63% respectively) in females, and, regarding the ABO groups, most individuals belonged to the O group, and the AB group had the lowest incidence. A similar observation was noted by Sudikshya et al, 12 Sangam et al, 13 and Bharadwaja et al 17 In contrast, Deopa et al, 14 in their study in Uttarakhand, India, found that most subjects belonged to blood group B. Fayrouz et al 18 reported a significant relationship between gender and blood group, which is in agreement with the present study. The incidence of Rh þve (92%) subjects was higher in every blood group (Rh -ve: 8%), which is similar to other studies [15][16][17][18][19][20][21] performed with different ethnic and racial groups.…”

“…In accordance with other studies, [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] the order of distribution of fingerprint patterns in the present study was as follows: a high incidence of loops, a moderate incidence of whorls, and a low incidence of arches. In the comparison between genders, whorls and arches were more predominant in females, and loops were more predominant males.…”

“…In the present study, the frequency of loops and arches was higher in the A Rh þve blood group, and the frequency of whorls was higher in the A Rh -ve group. These differences were statistically significant, which is in agreement with the observations made by Fayrouz et al 18 and Sudikshya et al 12 In contrast, Desai Bhavana et al, 15 Sangam et al, 13 Prateek and Pillai,19 and Umraniya et al 20 reported a higher incidence of loops and arches in the A Rh þve group, and of whorls in the A Rh -ve blood group. Shivhare et al 11 observed a higher frequency of loops and whorls in the A Rh -ve blood group.…”

“…In agreement with that, Ekanem et al, 16 in a study with residents of Maiduguri, Nigeria, reported a higher incidence of loops (31%) in males. In contrast, Shivhare et al, 11 in Chhattisgarh (central India), and Sudikshya et al, 12 in Nepal, observed a higher incidence of loops in females (55.8% and 52.4% respectively), but in males they found a higher incidence of whorls (34.23% and 43%respectively) and arches (16.23% and 5.87% respectively). Sangam et al, 13 Deopa et al, 14 and Desai et al 15 found a higher incidence of loops (60.5%, 64.53% and 52.63% respectively) in females, and, regarding the ABO groups, most individuals belonged to the O group, and the AB group had the lowest incidence.…”

“…9 An association has been noted between the distribution of blood groups and fingerprint patterns. 10 The average distribution of finger-print patterns has been studied in different racial and ethnic groups; [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] unfortunately, there is little published literature on the distribution of fingerprint patterns among the Saudi Arabian population. The purpose of the present investigation was to quantify the distribution of fingerprint patterns on all digits.…”

Objective: fingerprints are permanent and an individual physical characteristic, and are considered an authentic proof of identification. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether fingerprints have any significant relationship with gender and blood group. Materials and Methods: the fingertip patterns of 400 Saudi subjects were recorded using ink and paper, and identified by magnification lens, and the blood group was determined by the agglutination method. After recording the blood group and fingerprints of the subjects of both genders, their correlation was analyzed by Chisquared test. Results most subjects (49.25%) belonged to blood group O, followed by A, B and AB, of which 92% were Rhesus (Rh) positive; the relationship between gender and blood group was statistically significant. Regarding the fingertip patterns among the genders and ABO and Rh factor blood groups, loopsweremore frequent, followed by whorls and arches. Regardless of the Rh factor, the fingerprint pattern in blood groups A and AB was statistically significant, but it was not significant in the B and O groups. The incidence of loops was higher on the middle and little fingers, as well as on the thumb, in blood groups A, B and O, and this relationship was statistically significant. Conclusions: the present study reveals that the fingerprint pattern is not associated.

PurposeFingerprints and blood samples are important for the identification of individuals and criminals. The present study aims to identify the predominant fingerprint patterns and the association between the fingerprint patterns and ABO–Rh blood groups in Omani population.Design/methodology/approachA cross-sectional study was conducted on 200 Omani individuals aged 18 years (104 males and 96 females). The imprints of all right and left-hand fingers were taken, and the types of the fingerprints were determined using a standard protocol. The blood group of all the subjects was recorded. Chi-square test was performed to identify the association between the fingerprint patterns and the ABO and Rh blood groups.FindingsThe loop fingerprint pattern was the most common in Omani subjects (49.4%), followed by whorl (44.9%) and arch (5.7%) pattern. A significant association (p < 0.001) was found between gender and fingerprint pattern. The loop was the highest occurring pattern in the females (54.6%), while the whorl was more in males (50.0%). The whorl pattern was the most common in the AB+ and O− groups. The loop was a predominant pattern in the A+, A−, B+, B− and O+ groups. The Chi-square test also revealed a significant correlation between different fingerprint patterns and blood groups of the subjects (p < 0.001).Originality/valueThe present study is an outcome of undergraduate student's research project thesis for the Doctor of Medicine (MD) program. The results of the present study may help in creating a data bank for biometrics, which can be useful for diagnosing associated diseases and also help in identification of individuals.

Background: Studies have shown different results on the association between fingerprints, gender and blood groups in the different settings. There is one published article in Sudan. Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of fingerprints characteristics and to assess if there is an association between fingerprints and gender or ABO blood groups and rhesus blood types in Sudan. Results: A total of 394 participants were enrolled in the study. Their age ranged between 19 to 24 years with a mean (standard deviation) of 21 (3) years. Of these 394, 114 (28.9%) and 280 (71.1%) participants were males and females, respectively. Of 394 participants, 111 (28.2%), 63 (15.9%), 13(3.3%), and 207(52.5%) had blood group A, blood group B, blood group AB and blood group O, respectively. While 373(94.7%) participants had rhesus positive blood, only 21 (5.3%) had rhesus negative blood. Of 394 fingerprints, 2476 (62.84%) were loop, 1278(32.44%) were arch and186 (4.72%) were whorls. Fingerprints were significantly between males and females and between the different blood groups and rhesus factors. Conclusion: loop, (62.84%) and arch (32.44%) were they common fingerprints. Fingerprints characteristics were significantly between males and females and between the different blood groups and Rhesus factor.
