The term dermatoglyphics was first used in 1926 by anatomist Cummins. Dermatoglyphic is a term that refers to "a skin carving." The unique carve present on the skin surface of humans and other living beings is referred to as dermatoglyphics. This research was conducted to understand the variations in patterns and assess the usefulness of dermatoglyphics among individuals diagnosed with potentially malignant diseases and mouth cancer. Three hundred subjects were selected. The study consisted of three groups. Patients were divided into the following groups: Group I: oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) (100), Group II: ORAL LEUKOPLAKIA (100), and Group III: Healthy Individuals (100). Our research study indicates a difference in dermatoglyphic patterns between patients and healthy individuals. Specifically, there is a lower percentage of loop patterns and an increase in arch patterns in OSMF and leukoplakia patients. These findings suggest that dermatoglyphics may have relevance in understanding or identifying certain health conditions.
“皮纹学”一词于1926年由解剖学家卡明斯首次使用。皮纹学是一个指“皮肤纹路”的术语。人类和其他生物皮肤表面呈现的独特纹路被称为皮纹。进行这项研究是为了了解纹路的变化，并评估皮纹学在诊断为潜在恶性疾病和口腔癌的个体中的作用。选取了300名受试者。该研究包括三组。患者被分为以下几组：第一组：口腔黏膜下纤维化（OSMF）（100例），第二组：口腔白斑（100例），第三组：健康个体（100例）。我们的研究表明患者和健康个体之间的皮纹模式存在差异。具体而言，OSMF和白斑患者的箕形纹百分比更低，弓形纹增加。这些发现表明皮纹学可能在理解或识别某些健康状况方面具有相关性。
