[Potentially beneficial effects of climate changes]
24 Oct 2009 
Climate changes have many unbeneficial effects on human health, but may also have beneficial effects. An increased mean temperature reduces the incidence of death due to hypothermia and cardiovascular disease and may increase exercise frequency. As ... Read more...
Divergent cancer pathways for early-onset and late-onset cutaneous malignant melanoma.
13 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Emerging data suggest that cutaneous malignant melanomas (CMM) may arise through divergent cancer pathways that are linked to intermittent versus accumulated sun exposure. However, numerous questions remain regarding the timing and/or ... Read more...
13 Sep 2009 There is currently no means of primary prevention for prostate cancer. Increased exposure to ultraviolet-radiation may be protective, but the literature is inconclusive. We investigated associations of life course exposure to sunlight with prostate ... Read more...
