title: Sole dermatoglyphics of patients with Klinefelter's syndrome (47,XXY).
abstract: We have reported the dermatoglyphic findings on the soles of eighty Japanese Klinefelter's syndrome patients (47,XXY). As compared with normal Japanese males and females, three statistically different traits were observed: (1) Distal loops in the hallucal area are smaller, (2) pattern intensity is higher, and (3) the frequency of triradius p is elevated.
