Sun Exposure Profile in the French population. Results of the EDIFICE Melanoma survey.
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2015Co-Authors: Bruno Sassolas, Florent Grange, Chantal Touboul, Céleste Lebbé, Philippe Saiag, Laurent Mortier, Christine Lhomel, Caroline RobertAbstract:Background The incidence of melanoma is increasing worldwide, causing significant economic burden at community and individual levels. Ultraviolet radiation, from natural sunlight or artificial sources, is the main environmental, modifiable risk factor for melanoma. Objectives The present analysis assesses the Profile of sun Exposure in the French population as well as the level of awareness about ultraviolet risk and protection. Methods The survey was conducted via telephone interviews in September and October 2011. In total, 1502 respondents were questioned about their own sun Exposure with the question “do you ever, even occasionally, spend time in the sun, during leisure-time, vacation or your professional occupation?” They were also asked about sun protection measures used: protective clothing, a hat or sunscreen. Results More than three respondents out of four (78%) declared exposing themselves to the sun, with an average of 113 days per year. Of these, 38% did not use appropriate sun protection measures. We identified the following characteristics of individuals declaring high sun Exposure: chiefly men under the age of 40, higher socio-professional levels, and adults with no children. Individuals who make a poor use of protective measures are mostly men and of low educational levels. Individuals declaring low sun Exposure were chiefly: women, individuals over the age of 60, and those with no professional activity. The high sun protection population comprises mostly: women, higher socio-professional levels, with no specific age-group Profile. Conclusions Analysis of the EDIFICE Melanoma survey provides information about the attitudes of the French population towards sun Exposure. The most frequent contexts of sun Exposure and the associated socio-demographic characteristics of the population with at-risk attitudes regarding sun Exposure are identified. This deeper insight into the Profile of at-risk populations will allow interventions to be more accurately targeted, thus potentially improving public health benefits.

characterization of phthalates Exposure and risk for cosmetics and perfume sales clerks
Environmental Pollution, 2018Co-Authors: Pochin Huang, Jung Wei Chang, Kai Wei Liao, Shiou Hui Chan, Ching Chang LeeAbstract:Abstract High levels of phthalates in name-brand cosmetics products have raised concerns about phthalate Exposure and the associated risk for cosmetics sales clerks. We assessed the Exposure and risk of phthalates in 23 cosmetics, 4 perfume, and 9 clothing department store sales clerks. We collected 108 urine samples pre- and post-shift and analyzed for phthalate monoesters through liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry. Phthalates in 32 air samples were collected and analyzed through gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Demographic characteristics and information on the Exposure scenarios were obtained through questionnaires. Principal component analysis, cluster and risk analysis were applied to identify the Exposure Profile and risk of phthalate. Median post-shift levels of urinary mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (MEHP) and monomethyl phthalate (MMP) were significantly higher than the corresponding pre-shift levels in cosmetics group (53.3 vs. 30.9 μg/g-c for MEHP; 34.4 vs. 22.5 μg/g-c for MMP; both P

Median levels of air diethyl phthalate (DEP) in cosmetics (1.77 μg/m3) and perfume (1.75 μg/m3) groups and di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in perfume group (6.98 μg/m3) were higher than those in clothing group (DEP: 0.89; DEHP: 2.16 μg/m3). Over half of cosmetic (70%) and perfume sale clerks had exceeded cumulative risk of phthalate Exposure for anti-androgenic effect. We concluded that cosmetic and perfume workers had increased risks of reproductive or hepatic effects for DBP and DEHP Exposure. We suggest that not only inhalation but dermal Exposure is important route of phthalate Exposure for cosmetics and perfume workers.
