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]
- Pallor
Verma, too, used to slip on a shirt, slop on the sunscreen, and slap on a hat to protect her luminous olive complexion prized for its relative pallor in her native India—now she is following the new guidelines to get several hours of sun a week all year [nautil.us]
Eyes
- Blurred Vision
Sun exposure over time can cause cataracts (clouding of the eye lens, which leads to blurred vision) later in life. The best way to protect eyes is to wear sunglasses that provide 100% UV protection. [kidshealth.org]
Musculoskeletal
- Osteoporosis
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of sunlight exposure in increasing serum 25-OHD, in reducing the severity of osteoporosis in bone mineral density (BMD), and in decreasing the risk of hip fractures in chronically hospitalized, disabled stroke patients [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
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
Twelve nightshift nurses received three treatments: Placebo (Pla), Melatonin (Mel), and Melatonin with Sunglasses (Mel-S). Each treatment procedure was administered for 2d of different 4d nightshifts in a repeated measures crossover design. [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]
Infants received at least five hours per day of their assigned treatment, and were evaluated hourly during treatment for signs of hypothermia, overheating, dehydration and sunburn. [med.stanford.edu]
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]
Prognosis If you have a sun allergy, the outlook is usually very good, especially if you consistently use sunscreens and protective clothing. [drugs.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]
Prevention
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]
Many health issues can be prevented by getting an adequate amount of vitamin... [naturalnews.com]
