| Core Tip |
This review highlights dermatoglyphics, the study of fingerprint and palm patterns, as a promising, non-invasive biomarker for early neurodevelopmental disturbances linked to schizophrenia. Formed during the same gestational period as critical brain structures, these patterns remain unchanged postnatally. Findings from monozygotic twin studies reveal dermatoglyphic abnormalities in affected individuals, even among genetically identical pairs, suggesting a strong role for prenatal environmental factors. Integrating dermatoglyphic analysis with genetic and neuroimaging tools may enhance early risk detection strategies in psychiatry. |
