Abstract

Objective

While it is widely acknowledged that fingerprint recognition has played an essential part in policing and forensic science, little is known about fingerprint alterations in medical science, specifically as a consequence of anticancer treatments. Thus, we aimed to analyze the extent of evidence between cancer treatments and fingerprint alterations in adults with cancer.

Methods

A systematic integrative review was conducted according to the PRISMA statement and the Cochrane guidelines for conducting a systematic review. PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched from the inception between August and November 2024. The quality appraisal was conducted to evaluate the methodological quality of the included articles, selecting the most appropriate tool based on the publication type and study design.

Results

Of 176 records, we selected five experimental studies articles and nine case reports publications. A correlation between specific anticancer treatments (capecitabine, taxanes, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors) and fingerprint alterations has been documented in individuals with various cancer diagnoses (mainly advanced breast and colorectal cancers). The majority of articles were of moderate to low quality.

Conclusions

Although fingerprint alteration as a consequence of specific anticancer treatments has been documented, further large and well-designed experimental studies are necessary to quantify the phenomenon burden in relation to specific anticancer regimens and populations.

指纹变化作为抗癌治疗的结果：一个系统的综合评价

虽然人们普遍认为指纹识别在警务和法医科学中发挥了重要作用，但在医学科学中，特别是在抗癌治疗中，指纹的改变却鲜为人知。因此，我们的目的是分析癌症治疗和成人癌症患者指纹改变之间的证据程度。方法根据PRISMA声明和Cochrane系统评价指南进行系统综合评价。PubMed， CINAHL， Web of Science和Scopus从2024年8月至11月开始检索。进行质量评价以评价纳入文章的方法学质量，根据发表类型和研究设计选择最合适的工具。结果从176篇文献中，我们选择了5篇实验研究文章和9篇病例报告出版物。特异性抗癌治疗（卡培他滨、紫杉烷和酪氨酸激酶抑制剂）与指纹改变之间的相关性已经在各种癌症诊断（主要是晚期乳腺癌和结直肠癌）的个体中得到证实。大多数文章的质量都是中等到低的。结论：虽然指纹改变是特定抗癌治疗的结果，但需要进一步的大规模和精心设计的实验研究来量化与特定抗癌方案和人群相关的现象负担。普洛斯彼罗注册n（CRD42024581192）。

期刊介绍： Seminars in Oncology brings you current, authoritative, and practical reviews of developments in the etiology, diagnosis and management of cancer. Each issue examines topics of clinical importance, with an emphasis on providing both the basic knowledge needed to better understand a topic as well as evidence-based opinions from leaders in the field. Seminars in Oncology also seeks to be a venue for sharing a diversity of opinions including those that might be considered "outside the box". We welcome a healthy and respectful exchange of opinions and urge you to approach us with your insights as well as suggestions of topics that you deem worthy of coverage. By helping the reader understand the basic biology and the therapy of cancer as they learn the nuances from experts, all in a journal that encourages the exchange of ideas we aim to help move the treatment of cancer forward.
