Journal ArticleDOI
The epidemiology of UV induced skin cancer.
Bruce K. Armstrong,Anne Kricker +1 more
TL;DR: The epidemiological data suggest that in implementing sun protection an increase in intermittency of exposure should be avoided, that sun protection will have the greatest impact if achieved as early as possible in life and that it will probably have an impact later in life, especially in those who had high childhood exposure to solar radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
How much melanoma is caused by sun exposure
Bruce K. Armstrong,Anne Kricker +1 more
TL;DR: It was estimated that some 59 000 (65%) of about 92000 melanomas that occurred worldwide in 1985 were caused by sun exposure, which would justify studies of the causes of melanoma In these populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Phase 3 Randomized Trial of Nicotinamide for Skin-Cancer Chemoprevention
Andrew C. Chen,Andrew J. Martin,Bonita Choy,Pablo Fernandez-Penas,Robyn A. Dalziell,Catriona McKenzie,Richard A. Scolyer,Haryana M. Dhillon,Janette L. Vardy,Anne Kricker,Gayathri St George,Niranthari Chinniah,Gary M. Halliday,Diona L. Damian +13 more
TL;DR: Oral nicotinamide was safe and effective in reducing the rates of new nonmelanoma skin cancers and actinic keratoses in high-risk patients and there was no evidence of benefit after nicotinamide was discontinued.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sun Exposure and Mortality From Melanoma
Marianne Berwick,Bruce K. Armstrong,Leah Ben-Porat,Judith Fine,Anne Kricker,Carey A. Eberle,Raymond L. Barnhill +6 more
TL;DR: Sun exposure is associated with increased survival from melanoma, and sunburn, high intermittent sun exposure, skin awareness histories, and solar elastosis were statistically significantly inversely associated with death from melanomas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sunlight and cancer
TL;DR: Epidemiologic evidence on the relation between sunlight and cancer is reviewed, and strong evidence implicates sunlight as a cause of skin cancer, although, for melanoma and basal cell carcinoma, the relationship is complex.
