FIGURE 1 Finger clubbing with PM/DM associated with ILD. Objective findings of clubbing5 include increased hyponychial angles and phalangeal depth ratios. The hyponychial angle is formed by a line connecting the dorsal surface of the distal interphalangeal joint and the cuticle and a line joining the cuticle and the hyponychium (normal, <195 degrees). The phalangeal depth ratio consists of the thickness of the fingertip at the cuticle divided by the thickness of the finger at the distal interphalangeal joint (normal, <1.0).
