Bromoform exposure is associated with non-melanoma skin cancer: evidence from NHANES 2011–2020
Frontiers in Public Health, 2023 BackgroundNon-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is a prevalent skin malignancy. It has been indicated in many studies that trihalomethanes (THMs) exposure has a strong association with tumors but has not been associated with NMSC.
