“…A fingerprint is an imprint of the curving lines of skin at the end of a finger that is left on a surface or created by pressing an inked finger against the paper. Individual fingerprints are the most trustworthy basis for identification since they are unique (Ahmed et al, 2017). They first appear on the fingers, palms, soles and toes between the 12th and 16th weeks of embryonic development, and by the 14th week, their construction is finished.…”

Fingerprints have been used as an accurate method of personal identification for a long time. The present work was carried out to screen fingerprint patterns in different ABO/Rh blood groups and study their role in sex determination in a selected sample of the Egyptian population. This study was conducted with 200 undergraduate medical students in the Faculty of Medicine at Mansoura University. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for ABO/Rh blood categories. Finger-tip prints on both hands were taken from white A4 paper using black washable ink. A magnifying glass was used to detect the pattern in all fingerprints.A magnifying hand lens was used to detect the pattern in all fingerprints. The most common type of fingerprint patterns was an ulnar loop in both genders with a statistically significant difference between males and females in right index, right middle finger, and left ring finger distribution patterns. Right hand fingerprints can have a more suggestive value for gender determination than the left hand in the Egyptian population. There was a highly statistically significant difference between males and females in "O+ and "B+" blood groups with a highly statistically significant difference in fingerprint patterns distribution in "A+, O-and AB-" blood groups. Moreover, there was an association between fingerprint patterns and the distribution among blood groups "O-. B+, B-, AB+" on gender. Gender prediction in certain blood groups may be possible based on fingerprint patterns. Digital patterns, loops, whorls, and arches remain an important feature for the identification of gender and of possibly determining ethnic groups.
