Pola Sidik Jari Anak-anak Sindrom Down di SLB Bakhti Kencana dan Anak Normal di SD Budi Mulia Dua Yogyakarta
Abstract: Dermatoglyphics is
not only used to identify criminal, but also useful in clinical field. There
are some evidence that people with chromosome abnormalities like Down Syndrome
(trisomy 21), have abnormality in dermatoglyphics pattern compared to normal
people. It can be used to help confirming the diagnose. The goals are to study the variation and
distribution difference of dermatoglyphics and also the difference of Total
Ridge Count (TRC) on children with Down Syndrome at SLB Bakhti Kencana and
normal children at SD Budi Mulia Dua Yogyakarta. This research use cross
sectional study with 2 groups of subject that consist of 10 person. The
dermatoglyphics was taken by sticking both hands that had been marked with
purple ink on the paper. Gathered data was analyzed with descriptive analysis
and statistic analysis using Chi Square test, Fisher test and independent
sample T-test with SPSS 14 for windows. The results show that the highest mean
percentage of dermatoglyphics on Down Syndrome children is whorl (55%), on the
otherhand the highest mean percentage of dermatoglyphics on normal children is
loop ulna (53%). There is significant difference (p <0,05) using
Chi Square test
on distribution of whorl
pattern on both
hands and whorl
on the right
hand of children
with Down Syndrome
at SLB Bakhti Kencana
and normal children
at SD Budi
Mulia Dua Yogyakarta,
but the other
patterns of dermatoglyphic show no significancy. The mean of total ridge count on Down Syndrome (209) was higher
than normal children
(165,3), using independent
sample T-test show significancy at
p 0,04. From this
research, it can be concluded
that there is
significant difference of
whorl pattern distribution
of both hands
and whorl pattern
on the right
hand between Down
Syndrome children at SLB
Bakhti Kencana and
normal children at
SD Budi Mulia
Dua Yogyakarta, but
the distribution of loop
ulna, loop radial
and arch pattern
on both hands
and each hand
show no significancy.
The mean of total ridge count between
both population show significant difference.
