We analyzed the metacarpophalangeal pattern profile (MCPP) of 19 individuals with Brachmann-de Lange syndrome (BDLS) and calculated a mean syndrome profile. Fourteen of 19 individuals with BDLS had significant positive correlations which indicated clinical homogeneity. Discriminant analysis of individuals with BDLS compared with a sample of normal individuals produced a correct classification rate of 100% based on a function of 2 MCPP variables that may provide a useful tool for assisting in the diagnosis of BDLS. An average pattern variability index calculated for the BDLS patients was 1.9 indicating an abnormal hand pattern in this syndrome.
我们分析了19例布-德二氏综合征(BDLS)患者的掌指纹型轮廓(MCPP),并计算出了平均综合征轮廓。19例BDLS患者中有14例存在显著正相关,这表明临床具有同质性。将BDLS患者与正常个体样本进行判别分析,基于2个MCPP变量的函数得出正确分类率为100%,这可能为辅助BDLS的诊断提供一个有用的工具。为BDLS患者计算的平均纹型变异指数为1.9,表明该综合征存在手部纹型异常。
