Popis: Genetic predisposition is an important factor in pulmonary tuberculosis. The pattern of dermatoglyphic indicators is thought a reliable marker of such predisposition. Selective character of the disease emergence is related with an unfavorable combination of genetic and extra-genetic risk factors in an individual. A comprehensive assessment of the above factors may contribute to a reliable prediction of a high risk to develop tuberculosis.
