- Hand Sign Tutor: a scientific hand reading tool, ranks conditions for 300+ hand signs -

Earth hand shape: finger index < 0,7675

{= very short finger length with large broad palm}


Prevalence in general population (GP): common [~7,5% | 1:1 | weight: 1,00]

NOTICE: All babies have earth hands; Earth hand shape is more common in males than females

Most likely diagnostic options for high hand index (ranked by 'weight' for the general population):

- ASSOCIATED PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS:

masculinity [~10% | 1:7 | weight: 0,19]
male firefighters [~30?% | 1:280 | weight: 0,014]


- ASSOCIATED MEDICAL CONDITIONS:

trisomy 21 (= Down syndrome) [~50?% | 1:700 | weight: 0,01]
achondroplasia (= dwarfism) [~99+?% | 1:25K | weight: 0,0005]
trisomy 13 (= Patau syndrome [~55?% | 1:15K | weight: 0,0005]

[1st figure = prevalence hand sign in condition | 2nd
figure = prevalence condition in GP | 3rd figure =
estimated hand sign weight for condition relative
to GP (>0,5 = present in majority of GP)]

Earth hand shape: finger index < 0,765 (= very short finger length with large broad palm).

Quick summary:
Earth hand shape is more often seen in males; it is very common in Down syndrome, and nearly always seen in achondroplasia.

[For every 100 Earth hand shape cases in the general population (GP) you can expect to find 19 masculine men, 1 male firefighter, etc.]


NOTICE: Keep in mind that every single hand sign always bares the potential
to have an association with multiple psychology- and/or health related themes;
a solid assessment always requires a consideration of hand sign combinations!
