Abstract :
Aim. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the difference of dermatoglyphic samples in elite men athletes and sedantery individuals on the basis of individual dermatoglyphic sample differences which was completed in the embryonal life and evaluation of each of the two groups of anthropometric and biochemical data. Method. We performed to examine of dermatoglyphic samples, anthropometric measurements and biochemical tests in male elite athletes (n=105) and male sedentary subjects (n=105) in the Aegean region. With dermatoglyphic study which is auxiliary method in genetics, we searched whether elite athletes or control group who have different sample distribution from each other by examining of their dermal samples whether different from each other. Results. By examining dermal samples of men elite athletes’ and men sedentary people’s fingertip, it is introduced that men elite athletes’ have different sample distribution from men sedentary people. We obtained the 2d:4d ratio of 105 elite athletes and 105 sedentary people by dermatoglphic study. When comparison of men elite ahtletes and men sedentary individuals average ratio of 2d:4d for right hand (p=0.34) and left hand (p=0.06), it isfound that there is no significant relation. There was no significant correlation between the ratio2d:4d and testosterone hormone for right hand (p=0.17) and left hand (p=0.23) in our study. It isfound that there is statistically significant difference in some biochemical parameters belonged tothe persons who do long-term and regular physical exercise compared to the others. Conclusion.This is the first study on the distribution of dermatoglyphic samples of men elite athletes and mensedentary individuals in Aegean region, Turkey. We think that our dermatoglyphic findings will bea resource for researchers working in this field.
