STUDY OF PALMAR DERMATOGLYPHICS IN ESSENTIAL HYPERTENSION AMONG PEOPLE LIVING IN CATCHMENT AREA OF RAICHUR

<p>Hypertension a global public health concern remains a silent yet deadly condition affecting millions. This groundbreaking study explores the novel use of dermatoglyphics&mdash;the patterns of ridges on the skin of the palms and fingers&mdash;to identify genetic predispositions to essential hypertension. By investigating these unique patterns the research aims to provide a non-invasive and cost-effective method for early detection potentially transforming hypertension screening and prevention. Combining historical knowledge with modern genetic analysis this work offers fresh insights into the intersection of dermatoglyphics and hypertension shedding light on an innovative approach to combating this widespread health issue.</p><p></p>
