UNASSIGNED: Epidemiological evidence of a relationship between @entity560 and @entity703 risk has been inconsistent despite experimental data indicating that @entity560 and its metabolites may inhibit @entity105 . Previously we reported an inverse association between @entity1358 ( @entity1358 ) risk and occupational ultraviolet (UV) exposure among European @entity1 . In the current study, we examined the association between occupational UV exposure and @entity1358 risk among US residents and investigated whether this association varied by race and sex. Lifetime occupational data for 1,217 @entity1358 cases and 1,235 controls in a population-based case-control study, conducted from 2002-2007, were assessed for occupational UV exposure. We evaluated exposure metrics in quartiles based on control exposure levels and calculated associations between @entity1358 risk and occupational UV exposure using unconditional logistic regression adjusted for sex, race, body mass index, smoking, @entity101 , center, education, family history of @entity5 , and dietary @entity560 intake. A general pattern of decreasing @entity1358 risk with increasing UV exposure was observed. Cases had significantly lower cumulative occupational UV exposure than controls (fourth quartile vs. first: odds ratio=0.74 [95% confidence interval=0.56-0.99], P-trend=0.03). Similar results were observed for other UV exposure metrics. The association with occupational UV exposure was stronger for @entity1 than @entity1 , but did not differ by race. Our findings suggest an inverse association between occupational UV exposure and @entity1358 , particularly among @entity1 . Given the sex finding discrepancies in our current versus previous study, additional research is need to clarify whether the protective effects of occupational UV exposure and @entity1358 risk are real.
