  • Title: Palmar flexion creases and dermatoglyphics among diabetic patients.
    Author: Eswaraiah G, Bali RS.
    Journal: Am J Phys Anthropol; 1977 Jul; 47(1):11-3. PubMed ID: 888931.
    Abstract:
    Palmar dermatoglyphics and flexion creases of 108 male and 65 female patients diagnosed as having diabetes mellitus have been analysed. The control population consists of 536 males and 234 females from the same population. Palmar flexion creases were analysed according to the method suggested by Bali and Chaube ('71). The flexion creases of diabetic patients and the control population are significantly different. The differences between main line formulae in diabetes and controls are significant among males. The differences between C-line types of patients and controls are significant among both sexes. Axial triradii are significant among female patients and controls. The patterns in the interdigital areas IV and II are significantly lower among male and female patients respectively from their controls.
