Article Synopsis
- Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer, with the primary risk factor being UV light exposure, which causes cumulative damage leading to its development.
- The study aimed to explore trends and risk factors for BCC, as well as the relationship between patients' education levels and their awareness of skin cancer risks.
- Conducted with 141 participants, results showed that most BCC cases occurred in sun-exposed areas and were more common in individuals with fair skin types compared to controls.

Sun safety research has mainly been conducted in the West, whereas little is known about sun protection practices in India. Using a survey design with a representative sample, we aimed to understand the frequency of sun protection practices in India. We also examined associations between demographic covariates and sun safe behaviours.

Background: Benzophenone-3 (BP-3) and its major metabolite benzophenone-1 (BP-1) are widely used as UV filters in sunscreens and cosmetics to prevent sunburn and skin damage, or as stabilizers to prevent photodegradation in many commercial products. As a result, their presence is ubiquitous in the environment, wildlife and humans. Based on endocrine disruption concerns, international regulatory agencies are performing a closer evaluation.
