Hence, the present study was conducted with an aim to explore the association between the fingerprint patterns and oral potentially malignant disorders, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), individuals with habit and without lesion and the control group.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n A cross-sectional study comprising of 100 individuals divided into 5 groups with 20 individuals in each group based on their habit and the presence of oral lesions. Group 1 included individuals with oral leukoplakia (OL), Group 2 included individuals with oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), Group 3 included individuals who had OSCC, Group 4 individuals had tobacco habits but without lesion and Group 5 comprised of control individuals. The fingerprints of all the study subjects were recorded using a standard ink method. They were analyzed qualitatively and quantitively.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n The present study showed a predominance of that loop patterns in all the groups. The frequency of the whorled pattern was higher in subjects with OSMF as compared to OL and OSCC. The arch pattern was comparatively lesser in subjects with OL than OSMF subjects. The right-left comparison of the fingerprint patterns in all the five groups, except Group 4, showed a significant association and correlation. The Group 4 individuals were showing the least correlation between sides.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n The study concluded that dermatoglyphics can be used as a potential marker to identify the subjects with risk for potentially malignant oral disorders and oral cancers.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jomfp.jomfp_261_21","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,26]],"date-time":"2023-04-26T05:21:23Z","timestamp":1682486483000},"page":"420","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["The association of fingerprint patterns with oral potentially malignant disorders and oral cancer"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Vaishali S","family":"Dodia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sima P","family":"Odedra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Khushali Himanshu","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pooja C","family":"Monpara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Priya M","family":"Vyas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jayasankar P","family":"Pillai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-30-20240906","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"136","DOI":"10.4103\/2321-8568.195320","article-title":"Role of digital and palmar dermatoglyphics in early detection of oral leukoplakia, oral submucous fibrosis and oral squamous cell carcinoma patient","volume":"6","author":"Lakshmana","year":"2016","journal-title":"Adv Hum Biol"},{"key":"R2-30-20240906","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"379","DOI":"10.4103\/0972-1363.155674","article-title":"Role of dermatoglyphics in malignant and potentially malignant disorders of the oral cavity: A cross sectional study","volume":"26","author":"Deepa","year":"2014","journal-title":"J Indian Acad Oral Med Radiol"},{"key":"R3-30-20240906","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"448","DOI":"10.4103\/0976-237X.123039","article-title":"Role of dermatoglyphics as an indicator of precancerous and cancerous lesions of the oral cavity","volume":"4","author":"Gupta","year":"2013","journal-title":"Contemp Clin Dent"},{"key":"R4-30-20240906","first-page":"271","article-title":"Variations in dermatoglyphic patterns in oral submucous fibrosis and leukoplakia patients with and without adverse oral habits","volume":"30","author":"Awasthy","year":"2018","journal-title":"JIAOMR"},{"key":"R5-30-20240906","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"530","DOI":"10.1093\/jnci\/88.8.530","article-title":"Genetic susceptibility to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma","volume":"88","author":"Cloos","year":"1996","journal-title":"J Natl Cancer Instit"},{"key":"R7-30-20240906","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"153","DOI":"10.18203\/2320-6012.ijrms20195899","article-title":"Comparison of dermatoglyphic patterns in oral leukoplakia and oral submucous fibrosis patients","volume":"8","author":"Kulkarni","year":"2020","journal-title":"Int J Res Med Sci"},{"key":"R8-30-20240906","first-page":"3523","article-title":"Susceptibility for oral squamous cell carcinoma and potentially malignant disorders in patients with and without tobacco habits: Dermatoglyphics correlation","volume":"7","author":"Karthik","year":"2020","journal-title":"J Crit Rev"},{"key":"R9-30-20240906","first-page":"101","article-title":"Role of dermatoglyphics in malignant and potentially malignant disorders of the oral cavity: A cross-sectional study","volume":"16","author":"Singh","year":"2017","journal-title":"IOSR J Dent Med Sci"},{"key":"R10-30-20240906","first-page":"65741","article-title":"Unravelling \u201cThe myth-dermatoglyphics in oral potentially malignant disorders\u201d","volume":"10","author":"Darna","year":"2018","journal-title":"Int J Curr Res"},{"key":"R11-30-20240906","first-page":"269","article-title":"A dermatoglyphic study in oral submucous fibrosis patients","volume":"26","author":"Kumar","year":"2014","journal-title":"JIAOMR"},{"key":"R12-30-20240906","first-page":"121","article-title":"Analysis of finger prints pattern in patients with potentially malignant disorders: A cross-sectional study","volume":"15","author":"Aditya","year":"2016","journal-title":"IOSR J Dent Med Sci"},{"key":"R13-30-20240906","first-page":"1172","article-title":"Comparison of finger print patterns in patients with and without oral submucosis fibrosis -
