Abstract
Assessment of the Fingerprints and Palmar Crease of Stroke Patients: Stroke, also known as cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or apoplexy, is the sudden onset of a localized neurological impairment that lasts longer than twenty-four hours. In order to identify the important dermatoglyphic criteria that apply to the patients, the current study compared the dermatoglyphic patterns of the fingers and palmers in patients who had and did not have stroke. 58 stroke [CVA] patients who primarily attended physiotherapy sessions at Military Hospital Benin, Airport Road, Benin City, Nigeria, served as the study's subjects. The patients, who ranged in age from 43 to roughly 80 years, were both male and female. The stroke patients ranged in age from 43 to 88 years old, with a mean age of 71.29?1.22 years. PIC 310 was more common in both palms among stroke patients; that is, the left palm was more likely to contain PIC 310 than the right. There were 70.7% symmetrical and 29.3% asymmetrical, which indicates that a greater proportion of stroke victims had the same palm print on both palms than those with distinct palm prints. The 310 PIC was more common in stroke patients' right and left hands, and male individuals were more likely than female subjects to exhibit the 310 PIC in both hands. According to statistics, there was no discernible difference between the male and female PICs. The detrimental effects of unhealthy lifestyles, genetic and environmental predispositions, and the resulting strain on healthcare systems are reflected in current statistics.
