This review highlights significant gaps in research pertaining to sun exposure and type 2 diabetes mellitus related outcomes
Season and latitude modify the relationship between ambient ultraviolet radiation and personal ultraviolet radiation exposure
UVR or sunlight exposure may be an effective means of suppressing the development of obesity and MetS, through mechanisms that are independent of vitamin D
This genome-wide association study (GWAS) utilises data from the Western Australian Pregnancy Cohort (Raine) Study for 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels...
This paper examined dose-response relationships between ambient UVR levels and NMSC incidence at the population level.
The aim of this study was to investigate the link between vitamin D levels in the blood and short-sightedness in young adults.
Australian researchers have found that exposure to measured doses of ultraviolet light, such as sunlight, could reduce asthma.
This study aimed to describe the vitamin D status of pregnant women in Western Australia and identify predictors of deficiency in pregnancy. A cross-sectional study was conducted using linked data from statewide administrative data collections.
Cells of the skin and circulation are in constant two-way communication. Following exposure of humans to sunlight or to phototherapy, there are alterations in the number, phenotype and function of circulating blood cells.
The dramatic rise in allergic disease has occurred in tandem with recent environmental changes and increasing indoor lifestyle culture. While multifactorial, one consistent allergy risk factor has been reduced sunlight exposure. However, vitamin D supplementation studies have been disappointing in preventing allergy, raising possible independent effects of ultraviolet (UV) light exposure.
