BackgroundPublished epidemiological literature indicates that outdoor workers are at significantly increased risk for developing basal cell carcinomas.
ObjectivesThe main objective is to identify basal cell carcinoma features in patients with prolonged occupational exposure to UV radiation and compare them to basal cell carcinoma in patients with no occupational exposure to UV radiation.
MethodsData...
BackgroundAn adequate evaluation of the ultraviolet (UV) cumulative exposure is a major problem in epidemiological studies on chronic skin damage. Questionnaires may be applied as useful tools.
ObjectiveWe developed an original questionnaire to evaluate individual cumulative exposure to solar radiation (SR) in patients affected by actinic keratosis (AK), basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell...
BackgroundUltraviolet radiation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of non‐melanoma skin cancer. Outdoor workers, including farmers, experience higher exposure levels compared to the general population. Available literature data suggest that occupational ultraviolet exposure represents an independent risk factor for squamous cell carcinoma; whereas for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) this association...
BackgroundExposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is the most important external risk factor for skin cancer. Outdoor workers, who are exposed to high ambient UVR levels are at increased risk.
ObjectiveTo compare outdoor with indoor workers in terms of: (i) skin cancer risk factors, and (ii) risk of developing skin cancer.
MethodsUsing descriptive methods and a large multicenter European case–control...
Non‐melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is by far the most common cancer diagnosed in westernized countries,[][][][][] and one of the few almost preventable cancers if detected and treated early as up to 90% of NMSC may be attributed to excessive exposure to ultraviolet radiation.[]The incidence of NMSC is increasing: 2–3 million people are diagnosed worldwide annually, with an average yearly increase of...
BackgroundSince non‐melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) has been adopted as an occupational disease in Germany, in any single suspected case a retrospective estimation of the outdoor workers’ occupational UVR exposure is mandatory.
ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to introduce the recent German standard procedure as a mathematical algorithm for retrospectively estimating individual occupational UVR lifetime...
BackgroundSkin cancer is the most common malignancy in Caucasian populations worldwide and ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is known for being the number one carcinogen. As, especially in outdoor workers, UVR is an inevitable carcinogen, the prevention and management of UVR‐related skin cancers in these at‐risk populations represent a collective challenge for dermatologists and healthcare policymakers...
The most important but influenceable risk factor in the development of skin cancer is the unprotected exposure to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In order to assure adequate and effective protection against UV exposure, a level of knowledge about solar radiation and its effects is required. The objective of this study was to assess the knowledge of workers in outdoor professions on the effects of...
