Abstract

In the course of a continuing search for means of predicting Huntington's chorea before the onset of neurological symptoms, a study of fingerprint patterns was undertaken, using the technique employed by Hodges and Simon in the investigation of patients with Wilson's disease. Fingerprint patterns of 61 patients with Huntington's chorea and 50 with Parkinson's disease were compared with norms established by Scotland Yard. Although an increased incidence of the "whorl" pattern was seen in the left second and third fingers in patients with Huntington's chorea, this finding could not be interpreted as having diagnostic or prognostic value as it was found also in some normal subjects and in occasional cases of Parkinson's disease. The pattern supposedly characteristic of Wilson's disease was also seen in persons with Huntington's chorea.

摘要

在持续探寻在神经症状出现之前预测亨廷顿舞蹈症方法的过程中，开展了一项指纹模式研究，采用了霍奇斯和西蒙在研究威尔逊氏病患者时所使用的技术。将61例亨廷顿舞蹈症患者和50例帕金森病患者的指纹模式与苏格兰场确定的标准进行了比较。虽然在亨廷顿舞蹈症患者的左手第二和第三指中发现“涡纹”模式的发生率有所增加，但这一发现不能被解释为具有诊断或预后价值，因为在一些正常受试者以及偶尔的帕金森病病例中也发现了这一情况。据说威尔逊氏病特有的模式在亨廷顿舞蹈症患者中也可见到。
