Abstract

Abstract:

Objective To investigate the relationship between digital patterns and the coronary heart disease. Methods Using anthropometry, the frequency of finger print patterns of 272 men from Ningxia Han nationality that consisted of 136 patients with coronary heart disease and 136 normal adults was studied. The differences of them were analyzed. Results Patients with coronary heart disease had higher digital frequencies of whorls in both hands as compared with controls (P<0.01). The descending order of both group was Ⅳ> Ⅰ> Ⅱ>Ⅲ>Ⅴ; Frequency of more than 6 digital whorls in the coronary heart disease group was significantly higher than that of the controls (P<0.05). Conclusion Frequency of digital whorls (W) may be one of the important early diagnostic index of coronary heart disease.
