title: [Genetic mathematical analysis of dermatoglyphic indices in epilepsy].
abstract: Dermatoglyphic investigations were performed in 73 male epileptic patients divided into groups according to the age of the disease onset. Besides, epileptic alcohol addicts, normal male subjects having epileptic or normal children were entered into separate groups. A total of 149 subjects underwent this study. Dermatoglyphic patterns consistent with these groups differentiation were detected. This made it possible to arrange the patterns involving different risks for the subject or his offspring to have epilepsy. The data are important for medical genetic consultation and provide information for the theory of genetic issues in epilepsy.
