Glucocorticoid use and skin cancers

DNA repair related to multiple skin cancers and drug use.

Defective repair of sunlight-induced DNA photodamage, coupled with an unusually high occurrence of multiple primary basal cell carcinomas (BCCs), is the major characteristic of xeroderma pigmentosum. Our recent work has indicated that this etiological paradigm may apply to skin cancer patients without an apparent hereditary disease. The present study reports on an investigation of whether medic...

Survival and Recurrence in Non-melanoma Skin Cancers of scalp

Abstract Introduction: Non-melanoma scalp skin cancers (NMSCs) including squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) and basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are common. To manage such cancers, especially SCCs, more attention should be paid to their invasive characteristics. Mortality surveillance of SCCs and BCCs of scalp helps to choose proper approaches. Methods: The current retrospective, descriptive study w...

5G Technology: Why Should We Expect a shift from RF-Induced Brain Cancers to Skin Cancers?

Incidence of non-melanoma skin cancers in Isfahan

Background and aim: Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC) are one of the most prevalent malignancies of the human. Although the morality rate is not high for these cancers, they may cause high morbility for the patients. In addition to the skin type, factors such as sun exposure, head and neck radiotherapy, inappropriate use of sunscreen and cultural changes may increase the incidence of these...
