The importance of A'-d ridge count in dermatoglyphic diagnosis of the Ullrich-Turner syndrome.
The dermatoglyphic characteristics of 52 women with the Ullrich-Turner syndrome were studied and compared to those of a control group of 50 normal women. Through the use of discriminant analysis, it is shown that the use of the A'-d ridge count alone has the same efficiency in separating Ullrich-Turner syndrome patients from normal female subjects as discriminant functions here derived and other methods already published in the literature.
