“…By studying the same object -skin patterns, criminologists relied on one of the basic characteristics of papillary skin, on its individuality, and clinicians and anthropogenetics -on the other, namely on its high level of inheritance, since the tasks solved by one and the other were different. Criminologists are dedicated to finding individual features of skin patterns for the purpose of identifying a person [6,8], and physicians and anthropologists -to search for typological features that unite people into a group to reveal associations with diseases, ethno-racial diagnostics and a number of others [12,16].…”

Strengthening of global migration processes, often accompanied by an increase in crime and an increase in the number of unidentified individuals, necessitates the expansion of the use of indirect identification methods. In our opinion, involving dermatoglyphic analysis in cases of unidentified persons would help in forensic medical identification of the ethno-territorial membership of an unknown person. The purpose of the work is to identify a taxonomic complex of features of palmar dermatoglyphics at the local level that allow differentiating the regional affiliation of men in Ukraine. The study of dermatoglyphics of 400 virtually healthy men from 5 administrative-territorial regions of Ukraine was conducted using the method of H. Cummins and Ch. Midlo. Statistical processing of the results was carried out in the package “STATISTICA 6.1” using nonparametric methods. The set of signs of palmar dermatoglyphic was revealed, showing a high degree of heterogeneity between men from the following administrative-territorial regions of the country: central and eastern (20.0% of indicators), central and northern (16.9% of indicators), northern and western (16.9% of indicators), western and eastern (15.4% of the indicators) regions of Ukraine. Men from the northern and eastern (6.2% of the indicators), the south and west (6.2% of the indicator) and the southern and eastern (7.7% of the indicators) regions of Ukraine show a significant affinity for the features of palmar dermatoglyphics. In general, the high taxonomic value for intra-population differentiation of the local level have: the localization and saturation of the palm pattern, the size of the palm angles, the presence/absence of additional axial triads, the length of the segment c-t, the Cummins index.

“…The frequency data in this study clearly show that some minutiae types can substantially contribute to the strength of the match in the identification process. Several similar studies dealing with the evaluation of minutiae types on the fingerprints have been published, for example, Gutiérrez‐Redomero et al 2011 , Gutiérrez‐Redomero et al 2012 , or Rivaldería et al 2017 (). When comparing the results of our study with those by Gutiérrez‐Redomero et al 2011, we have to mention that the order of the minutiae types from our study mostly matches the order from the study of Spanish population.…”

“…The number of prints available through these databases is far from being compared with the quantity of fingerprints in fingerprint databases ( NBIS, NFIS etc.). The authors believe that this examination could lead to enlargement of the palm print database, what could result in better use of the palm prints for personal identification .…”

Minutiae are small distinguishing features found along every ridge flow, which make each friction ridge print unique. The most common friction ridge prints found at the crime scene are fingerprints; therefore, the most of the minutiae studies are focused exactly on this kind of prints. The authors believe that further examination and enlargement of the palm print database could result in better use of the palm prints for personal identification. We analyzed a total of 160 palm prints from 40 females and 40 males aged between 18 and 70 years from Slovakia. For the evaluation of the minutiae, the area of the hypothenar had to be marked out. The classification of the minutiae used for this study was based on a modified version of the classification system using the total of 13 types of minutiae. The frequency of every minutiae type was calculated and, using the chi‐square test with Yates's correction, bilateral and sex differences were assessed. The relationship between the different types of minutiae was examined with Pearson's correlation test. During the initial phases of the identification process, the focus should be on the least common types of minutiae (Y or M and return), which were found not to correlate; thus, their mutual occurrence is random (e.g., overlap—Y or M, crossbar—return, or Y or M—dock). The results of the present study show which specific minutiae types are the most suitable for personal identification. These findings may be beneficial in more effective outcome of the identification process.

“…Henry's classification is one of the most commonly used system that allows classification of fingerprint into three basic patterns which includes Arch type, Loop type and Whorl pattern. 12 Studies have shown that fingerprints are a reliable method for personal identification and are widely used in biometric identification throughout the world [13][14][15] .…”

Aim: To determine the correlation between lip print, fingerprint form and blood groups that can be used for the identification of an individual among gender. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 719 female and male participants with ages between 17-34 years from Bahria University Medical and Dental College. Patterns for lip and finger prints were collected along with the blood groups. SPSS v23 was used for statistical analysis. Frequency and percentages of the qualitative variables was calculated. The association of the variables was analyzed using Chi-square. Results: A total of 719 subjects, there were 327 males (45.5%) and 392 females (54.5%). Type I lip pattern was prevalent in 31.8% males followed by Type I’ in 27.6% females. The loop type of the finger print was observed in 165(50.5%) of males and 162(41.3%) females. The most common type of blood group was A+ in 27.2% in males while in females it was O+ in 29.8%. Conclusion: Individual parameters such as lip and finger prints along with blood groups can play an important role in personal identification of individual. In our study A+ blood group along with arch pattern of finger prints and Type I lip were most common patterns in males while in females Type I’lip pattern along with blood group 0+ and Loop pattern were common Keywords: Lip prints, Finger Prints, Cheiloscopy, Blood Groups, Forensic
