Fingertip dermatoglyphic patterns of forty-five patients with atopic dermatitis were compared to those of sixty nonatopic dermatologic patients, twenty-one of whom had hand dermatitis. The average number of digits in which linear grooves were detected was significantly higher in the atopic group than in the nonatopic controls (p less than 0.005). Three or more digits with linear grooves were found in 95.2% of atopic patients with hand dermatitis and in 61.9% of controls with hand dermatitis (p less than 0.005). A greater number of digits displaying linear grooves was found in control patients with hand dermatitis than in control patients without hand dermatitis. However, atopic patients with hand dermatitis had, on the average, an even greater number of digits with linear grooves than did control patients with hand dermatitis (p less than 0.005). These findings suggest that linear grooves, although associated with hand dermatitis in general, are more commonly found in patients with atopic hand dermatitis. Although a significant increase in the whorl pattern was detected in female, but not in male, atopic patients when compared to sex-matched control groups (p less than 0.0025), this increase was significant only in Caucasian females when compared to sex- and race-matched controls (p less than 0.0005).
将45例特应性皮炎患者的指尖皮纹模式与60例非特应性皮肤病患者进行比较，其中21例患有手部皮炎。特应性组中检测到线性纹路的手指平均数量显著高于非特应性对照组（p<0.005）。95.2%的手部患有皮炎的特应性患者和61.9%的手部患有皮炎的对照组患者有三个或更多手指出现线性纹路（p<0.005）。手部患有皮炎的对照组患者出现线性纹路的手指数量多于无手部皮炎的对照组患者。然而，手部患有皮炎的特应性患者平均出现线性纹路的手指数量甚至比手部患有皮炎的对照组患者更多（p<0.005）。这些发现表明，线性纹路虽然一般与手部皮炎有关，但在特应性手部皮炎患者中更常见。与性别匹配的对照组相比，女性特应性患者的涡纹模式显著增加，但男性特应性患者没有（p<0.0025），但与性别和种族匹配的对照组相比，这种增加仅在白种女性中显著（p<0.0005）。
