Presentation
We describe a cohort of 7 patients (2 adults, 5 children) presenting with severe hypercalcemia who had homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in CYP24A1. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Malaise
In addition, there may be one to two hours of chills, headache, nausea and malaise (a general sick feeling). In rare cases, PMLE may erupt as red plaques (flat, raised areas), small fluid-filled blisters or tiny areas of bleeding under the skin. [drugs.com]
Jaw & Teeth
- Dental Caries
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations at or above 30-40 ng/ml should significantly reduce the formation of dental caries. [articles.mercola.com]
Skin
- Hyperpigmentation
Facial wrinkle length and area of hyperpigmentation, which are considered to be associated with exposure to sun, were measured using imaging with computer-based image analysis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
And it all adds up over time to cause skin aging, fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, elastosis (the degradation of the elastic tissue of the skin), the breakdown of collagen, hyperpigmentation, and other more serious conditions including skin cancer. [sunsaferx.com]
Treatment
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of tacalcitol ointment plus sunlight exposure in the treatment of nonsegmental vitiligo. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Unfortunately, some psoriasis sufferers are rather sensitive to sun light, and may not be improved with this treatment. It is usually best to apply a tar or dithranol preparation daily, to be followed later by ultra-violet light treatment. [diagnose-me.com]
What other treatments are there for polymorphic light eruption? For severe or troublesome PMLE If the above treatments are not sufficient, other options are: Light therapy (phototherapy). [patient.info]

Prognosis
BACKGROUND: The prognosis of primary glioblastoma (GBM) is poor. Approximately 2/3 of primary brain tumor diagnoses are GBM, of which 95% are primary lesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Patients with the highest blood levels of vitamin D have thinner melanoma and better survival prognosis than those with the lowest vitamin D levels Vitamin D Deficiency Common in Sick Kids Still, there's no getting around the fact that vitamin D, produced [articles.mercola.com]
However, in cases of autoimmunity, the immune system’s overactivity is what underlies symptoms, and so the sun may prevent the onset and improve prognosis of these types of diseases. [healevate.com]
Etiology
Sunlight exposure and physical activity represent modifiable lifestyle factors that, if shown to be important in breast cancer etiology, could be adopted as appropriate by individuals to substantively affect their breast cancer risk. [mskcc.org]
Because most arsenic-induced skin cancers arise from these skin lesions, treatment and remediation plans should take into consideration these etiologic cofactors. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It is an important etiological factor in the development of skin cancers and sun-related eye problems when exposure is high, or Vitamin D Deficiency (VDD) [ 1, 2 ]. [link.springer.com]
Epidemiology
OBJECTIVES: To analyse comprehensively the epidemiological literature concerning the association between AMD and sunlight exposure. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Abstracts published in Epidemiology have been reviewed by the societies at whose meetings the abstracts have been accepted for presentation. These abstracts have not undergone review by the Editorial Board of Epidemiology. [journals.lww.com]

Therefore, preventive measures, for example, wearing sunglasses to minimize sunlight exposure, should start early to prevent development of AMD later in life. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

There is no known way to prevent most types of leukemia, though some types may be prevented by avoiding high doses of ionizing radiation, exposure to the chemical benzene, smoking and certain types of chemotherapy. [news-medical.net]
