• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The present study is an elucidation of different genetic markers like dermatoglyphics, ABO and Rh blood groups, ABH secretion status among the patients of gastrointestinal diseases (G.I.) and controls. Significant relationship between alcohol drinking and ulcerative colitis (UC) (p0.05) and gallstone (GS) (p0.01) diseases is established in the study. The number of smokers is relatively high in alcoholic pancreatitis (AP) and chronic alcoholic groups (CA). A considerable connection exists between non-vegetarian diet, alcoholic cirrhosis (AC), alcoholic pancreatitis and chronic alcoholic patients. The frequent incidence of blood group A in CA, AC and GS is noticed. In case of AP and UC high prevalence of blood group B is observed. The occurrence of non-secretors is significantly high in UC, GS and celiac disease as compared with that of controls. All the G.I. diseases show preponderance of loops followed by whorls. Arches and composites are almost equally distributed. It is also established that bilateral variation for dermatoglyphic characters is composite, i.e. determined by genes and influenced by environment depending upon the characters in question
