Immunosuppressed organ-transplant recipients have an increased incidence of, and mortality from, skin cancer. Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) enhances the repair of ultraviolet (UV) radiation-induced DNA damage, reduces cutaneous immunosuppressive effects UV radiation, keratinocyte cancers (including squamous-cell basal-cell carcinomas) actinic keratoses among high-risk immunocompetent patients. Whether oral nicotinamide is useful for skin-cancer chemoprevention in unclear.In this phase 3 trial,...
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Congenital melanocytic naevi (CMN) are a risk factor for melanoma. Melanoma is dependent on the congenital phenotype. Our primary aims were to assess clinical characteristics of CMN that indicate high neurocutaneous melanosis (NCM) and melanoma in an Australian paediatric population group; identify patient features trigger further investigations; determine rate malignancy other complications CMN. Methods We retrospectively reviewed electronic medical records...
<b>Background:</b> The incidence of lung cancer among women is high in the highly industrialised area Teesside north-east England. Previous research has implicated industrial pollution as a possible cause. A study was undertaken to investigate whether prolonged residence close heavy industry associated with Teesside. <b>Methods:</b> Two hundred and four aged <80 years incident primary 339 age matched community controls were recruited population based case-control study. Life course...
