BACKGROUND: Dermatoglyphic was defined to include only the skin ridges and their configuration but the definition has since been broadened to include flexor creases and other secondary folds also.The fine ridge pattern of fingers, palm and sole have intrigued man since primitive times. There is evidence that the finger prints were used for identification. AIM: To evaluate the effect of geography on the palmar atd angle and to find relation between the genetic and dermatoglyphic patterns of the patients of breast and cervix cancer of Rajasthan and Punjab states. MATERIAL AND METHOD:The quantitative research method was used for this study. The study comprised of 400 cases, out of which 200 belonged to Punjab state and 200 from Rajasthan state. Both the 200 cases from Punjab as well as Rajasthan states included 100 breast and 100 cervix cancer patients. In the present study, a slight modification of ink method was used. The technique is known as modified Cotterman‟s technique. The statistical analysis was done using SPSS. RESULT:Palmar patterns of atd angle are significantly higher in Punjab state for right hand of breast cancer patients. Whereas, atd angle is significantly higher in Rajasthan state in both breast and cervix cancer patients. CONCLUSION:Dermatoglyphic patterns are influenced by genetic and geographical factors. It can be used as a pre-diagnostic tool. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
