ABSTRACT Background Tanning addiction is a behavioral addiction characterized by an irrepressible desire for sun or ultraviolet light exposure. It is thought to affect 10% to 25% of the population. Objectives This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of this behavior in patients with moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis and identify associated factors ...

Sunscreens importantly contribute to photoprotection. Their efficacy in reducing photocarcinogenesis and photoaging is widely documented. Although there are concerns regarding longterm sunscreen safety, their advantages greatly outweigh potential risks ...

Octyl methoxycinnamate (OMC) is a common UVA and UVB filter molecule that is widely used in commercial sunscreens. Here, we used gas-phase laser photodissociation spectroscopy to characterise the intrinsic photostability and photodegradation products of ...

Patients With Giant Facial Basal Cell Carcinoma, Who Are They?—A Psychosocial Profile
Giant basal cell carcinoma of the face represents a small fraction of patients with basal cell carcinoma. Patients often have the lesion for years before seeking care, requiring complex surgical reconstruction as a result. The reasons for delayed treatment has not been explored in the literature, and this study seeks to address the complex psychosocial

Requirements for safe, stable, and long-acting sunscreens are successfully accomplished by natural lignin due to its broad-spectrum ultraviolet (UV)-blocking and synergistic properties. Chemical sunscreens are encapsulated in enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (

Biobased Hyperbranched Polyesters as Effective Non‐Leachable UV Blockers for Sunscreens
Three UV‐active hyperbranched polyesters are synthesized using lignin‐based monomeric molecules and potentially biobased hydandoin. These hyperbranched polymers show effective UV absorption in solution and blended creams. The blended creams show desirable photostability and negligible leakage into fresh or salt water, which indicates their potentially ...

Non-Sunscreen Photoprotection: Antioxidants Add Value to a Sunscreen [PDF]
The association between ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure and both skin cancer and photo-aging is well documented. In addition to the conventional organic-chemical and physical-mineral type sunscreens, other non-sunscreen protective strategies have been developed.

QuaRTz: An Open-Domain Dataset of Qualitative Relationship Questions [PDF]
We introduce the first open-domain dataset, called QuaRTz, for reasoning about textual qualitative relationships. QuaRTz contains general qualitative statements, e.g., "A sunscreen with a higher SPF protects the skin longer.", twinned with 3864 crowdsourced situated questions, e.g., "Billy is wearing sunscreen with a lower SPF than Lucy.

Introduction The role of visible light (VL) in the process of skin pigmentation by solar radiation has been demonstrated. Sunscreens with the presence of pigments, particularly iron oxide (IO), have a greater protective effect against VL and are ...
