Dermatoglyphic findings in 19 patients with phenylketonuria (11 male and 8 female), 39 of their relatives (18 female and 21 male) and 500 controls (TRC) were not statistically significant among the three groups studied. There was no definite relationship between the phenylketonuric gene and the dermatoglyphic patterns. The parents of half the phenylketonuria cases are not consanguineous; thus the phenylketonuria gene may be more frequent in Turkey than other European countries.
对19名苯丙酮尿症患者（11名男性和8名女性）、他们的39名亲属（18名女性和21名男性）以及500名对照者（TRC）的皮纹特征进行研究，结果显示三组之间无统计学差异。苯丙酮尿症基因与皮纹模式之间没有明确的关系。半数苯丙酮尿症患者的父母并非近亲结婚；因此，苯丙酮尿症基因在土耳其可能比其他欧洲国家更为常见。
