摘要: Solar ultraviolet B (UV-B) radiation (280–320 nm) has been associated with reduced risk of cancer the breast, colon, ovary, and prostate, as well non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) through production vitamin D in papers extending back to 1980. Using data on geographic distribution mortality rates US, another ten cancers have added list for which UV-B/vitamin is a reduction factor (Grant 2002b; submitted).These associations persist even after additional factors such smoking, urban or rural residence, Hispanic heritage, poverty,dietary factors, use nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are analysis. As further test protective role UV-B radiation, an ecologic study Europe dietary was conducted. Inverse correlations found number cancers, those bladder, endometrial, ovarian, renal cancer, multiple myeloma NHL having strongest this ongoing multicountry studies. These studies add support reducing large cancers.
