clinical medicine should identify and characterize modifiable risk factors for skin cancer in order to facilitate primary prevention. In existing literature, the impact of occupational exposure on skin cancer, including malignant melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers, has been extensively studied. This review summarizes the available epidemiological evidence on the significance of occupational risk factors and occupations associated with a higher risk in skin cancer. The results of this review suggest that there is sufficient epidemiological evidence to support the relationship between the increased risk of non-melanoma skin cancers and occupational exposure to solar radiation, ultraviolet radiation, ionizing radiation, arsenic and its compounds, and mineral oils. Occupational exposure to pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls appears to provide sufficient epidemiological evidence for melanoma, and a higher risk of melanoma has been reported among workers in petroleum refining and firefighters. This comprehensive analysis will establish a foundation for subsequent investigations and developing targeted interventions of focused preventive measures against skin cancer among the working population.  \nKeywords: Skin Neoplasms; Melanoma; Risk Factors; Occupational Exposure; Occupations; Radiation  \nINTRODUCTION  \nSkin cancer is characterized by the abnormal growth of","cbCainK0EYBwtZiw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainK0EYBwtZiw","pdf",2789536,15,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Skin cancer types and characteristics\n## Core risk factors, including occupational exposures","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this comprehensive review on skin cancer risk factors?\",\"answer\":\"It summarizes epidemiological evidence on which occupational risk factors and occupations are associated with higher skin cancer risk, with an emphasis on modifiable factors for primary prevention.\"},{\"question\":\"Which occupational exposures show sufficient evidence for non-melanoma skin cancers?\",\"answer\":\"The review reports sufficient epidemiological evidence for increased non-melanoma skin cancer risk with occupational exposure to solar radiation, ultraviolet radiation, ionizing radiation, arsenic and its compounds, and mineral oils.\"},{\"question\":\"How does occupational exposure relate to melanoma risk in the review?\",\"answer\":\"Occupational exposure to pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls is described as providing sufficient epidemiological evidence for melanoma, and higher melanoma risk has been reported among workers in petroleum refining and firefighters.\"}]","Occupational Risk Factors for Skin Cancer - A Comprehensive Review | PDF",1789993559,38]
