In the field of dermatology, the Naegeli–Franceschetti–Jadassohn syndrome is named after him. It is a rare condition characterized by reticular skin pigmentation (distinct brown or pink-red areas or raised bumps that form a net-like pattern), diminished function of the sweat glands, the absence of teeth and thickening of the skin of the palms and soles of the feet. One of the most striking features is the absence of fingerprints. It’s caused by mutations of a gene. Treatment is based on an individual's symptoms.
Naegeli was the son of the physician Otto Naegeli (1843-1922) and the brother of the \Otto Naegeli (1871-1938) who were prominent hematologists (specialists in diagnosing, treating and managing diseases that affect the blood).
He studied at Geneva, Zurich, Munich, and Heidelberg, obtaining his medical doctorate at Zurich in 1909. He worked in Freiburg at the pathological institute. Later he worked at the university dermatological clinic at Bern. His work concerns immunity research in dermatology and the diagnosis and treatment of syphilis.
Chesswise, he represented Switzerland at the Chess Olympiads in 1927, 1928, 1931 and 1935 as well as at the unofficial Olympiad in 1936 at Munich.
Naegeli won Swiss Chess Championship in 1910 and 1936. He lost a match to Dr. Ossip Bernstein by a score of 1-3 in 1932 and to Salo Flohr (by a score of 2-4) in 1933. He participated in the strong international tournaments at Berne 1932 and Zurich 1934, both won by Alekhine.
In the following game he pulls off a ni8ce win against Lacido Soler (1903-1964) who was one of the strongest players in Spain in the 1920s and 1930s.
He won the Catalan Championship in 1924 and1931. He finished second in the Catalan Championship (1926).1
In 1926, he won the silver medal in the Catalan team Championships.

B83: Sicilian Scheveningen 1.e4 c5 2.f3 c6 3.d4 cxd4 4.xd4 f6 5.c3 d6 6.e2 e6 This seemingly modest d6–e6 P-center gives black a solid
defensive setup, controls the critical d5 and e5 squares and has the
flexibility to break in the center with either ...e5 or ...d5. 7.0-0 e7 8.b3 A rare sideline that is not particularly effective. Ususal is 8.Be3 0-0 9.b2 a6 Just one of deveral reasonable moves. 9...b6 10.xc6 bxc6 11.e1 b7 is equal. Apicella,M (2515)-Stefansson,H (2569) Cappelle la Grande FRA
1999 9...e5 10.f3 h6 11.d2 d4 12.c4 g4 with complete equality.
Dzierzenga,S (2178)-Novak,P (2349) Jenbach AUT 2013 10.h1 White wants to
play f2-f4 and so removes his K from the a7-g1 diagonal. c7 11.f3 This is
hard to explain. First he placed one B in a rather passive position and now he
does the same with the other one. 11.f4 is the thematic move. d7 12.f3 b5 13.a3 g4 14.d2 b6 15.h3 f6 16.e5 with an active position. Arnaudov,
P (2129)-Peev,P (2320) Plovdiv 2003 11...e5 12.e2 b5 13.a3 b7 14.f4 ed7 15.f3 ac8 16.c1 Passive. 16.Qe1 and 17.Rd1 is a plausible plan. fd8 17.e2 b6 18.fd1 bd7 18...g6 This is a more active move. It
prevents f5 after black play ...e5 19.f2 e5 20.de2 f8 Repositioning the
B to a more active square. 21.d5 xd5 22.exd5 g7 with just a very
slightly better position because his pieces a better positioned. 19.e1 c5 20.b4 cd7 21.b3 b6 22.d2 d7 For the last few moves both sides have
been jockeying for position without accomplisging much. White should continue
that strategy with, say, 23.Qf2. Insteaf he embarks on the aggressive idea of
advancing his e-Oawn in a position where his pieces do not support such an
advance. 23.e5 dxe5 24.xb7 xb7 25.fxe5 fd5 26.ce4 Clearly black is
better, but it's hard to see that white's position is very close to collapsing.
f4 This N is going to play a major role. 27.g4 Better was 27.Qe3 and
28.Bd4 g6 28.b3 c4 This move could not have been prevented. 29.ec5 A tactical miscalulation. 29.d4 was called for, but white would
still be in serious difficulties after... c6 30.ec5 xc5 31.xc5 h5 32.d1 32.xh5 xd4 32...d5 33.c3 gxe5 29...xc5 30.xc5 This fork was
probably what white was counting on because if black moves the threatened Q... xc5 ...and wins! 30...c7 31.xd7 xd7 32.d4 xd4 33.xd4 xa3 34.c3 an unclear position has been reached. 31.bxc5 xb2 32.b4 c4 33.cd1 White is lost, but thus move falls into a mate in 10! f4 A major
player steps up. 34.c6 xc6 White resigned as mate cannot be avoided. 34...xc6 35.d5 35.g1 xd1 mates in 2 35...xd5 36.g1 xg2 37.c5 37.xg2 d1+ 38.g1 f3+ 39.g2 d1+ 40.e1 xe1# 37...xc5 38.h4 ge3 39.a4 xe5 40.f1 e4+ 41.f3 xf3+ 42.g1 g2# 0–1
