Opis

Dermatoglyphic studies have been associated with many physical, behavioural and pathological traits. Ridge patterns are established early in intrauterine life and serve as effective tools in determining the development of a particular trait. This study was aimed at finding out whether there exists any dermatoglyphic patterns that could serve as predictive tools in the early detection of schizophrenia in a Nigerian population.
