“…All adult patients, surviving for at least four years after allogeneic HSCT, followed up at our center were included. We systematically looked for oral drug use, confirmation of alcoholism according to the CAGE questionnaire, 9 clinical presence of any form of GVH, documented history of bleeding or transfusion in the previous year, recording of the total number RBCs administered before and during transplant procedure (from blood delivery software or from the medical files before 1990). At enrollment biologic evaluation of all patients was carried out according to routine procedures.…”

“…A number of studies have demonstrated good reliability, sensitivity (77-86%), specificity (93-94%), and validity of the CAGE to screen for alcohol disorders. 36,37 There are several strong and widely used instruments used to assess DSM-IV criteria for the diagnosis of substance dependence. For example, the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (SCID) and the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) have been found to have excellent interrater reliability, good test-retest reliability, and superior validity to standard clinical interviews.…”

Objectives-To investigate possible predictors of tanning dependence including demographic variables, exposure and protective behaviors, and other health-related behaviors.Methods-This study consisted of an online survey of 400 students and other volunteers from a university community.Results-Twenty-seven percent of the sample was classified as tanning dependent. Tanning dependence was predicted by ethnicity and skin type, indoor and outdoor tanning and burning, and lower skin protective behaviors, as well as smoking and body mass index.Conclusions-Young adults are at risk for tanning dependence, which can be predicted by specific demographic and behavioral variables. Keywordstanning; skin cancer prevention; addiction Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, accounting for half of all human cancers, 1 with over a million new cases diagnosed yearly. 2 Ninety percent of all skin cancers are due to ultraviolet radiation (UVR). 2 Thanks to recent media attention, the US public has demonstrated increased awareness of the harmful effects of UVR. 3 Unfortunately, studies have also demonstrated that people, particularly young adults, continue to use minimal skin protection strategies yet receive large amounts of intentional and incidental exposure to UVR, either through sun exposure or from the use of tanning Address correspondence to Dr Heckman, Population Science, Fox Chase Cancer Center, 510 Townshipline Rd, First Floor, Cheltenham, PA 19012.

[3][4][5][6][7] As suggested by the continued exposure to UVR without adequate protection despite increasing awareness of risks, clearly there are strong motivations for such exposure and/ or significant barriers to engaging in protective behaviors. Most of the recent literature suggests that the effect on appearance is the primary motivation for sunbathing and tanning booth use. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] It is no wonder then that educational interventions targeting skin safety and cancer knowledge have fallen short in terms of changing actual tanning behavior. [11][12][13][14][15][16] However, there may be some individuals who tan excessively for reasons other than appearance. Like other health-risk behaviors, tanning behavior probably has multiple determinants.Similarities between excessive tanning and substance use disorders or addiction have been discussed formally in the literature recently and anecdotally for years. 17 In the lay media, the term tanorexia has been used to describe a preoccupation with the desire to be tan paired with excessive tanning, similar to anorexia nervosa or an obsessive desire to be thin paired with compulsive dietary behavior. 18 Tanorexia is illustrated by the recent explosion in media images of tan celebrities 18 and numbers of tanning salons 7,19 as well as sunless tanning products on the mar...

“…The CAGE questionnaire, used as an index of problem drinking in our study, was developed by Ewing [28] and is one of the most widely used alcohol screening questionnaires as an easy-to-use tool to identify severe alcoholism [43,44]. The ADH1B*1/*1 genotype has been positively associated with problem drinking as assessed by the Kurihama Alcohol Screening Test (KAST) [42], and individuals with a high KAST score have a higher risk for alcohol dependence [25,45].…”

Objectives Many East Asians have the genetic polymorphisms rs1229984 in alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (ADH1B) and rs671 in aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2). Here we analyzed the relationships of the two genotypes with alcohol sensitivity, drinking behavior and problem drinking among older and younger men living in rural areas of Japan. Methods The subjects were 718 Japanese men aged 63.3 ± 10.8 (mean ± SD), categorized into the older (C65 years, n = 357) and younger (\65 years, n = 361) groups. Facial flushing frequency, drinking behavior and positive CAGE results were compared among the genotypes using Bonferroni-corrected v 2 test and a multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusting for age, BMI and lifestyle factors. Results The frequency of 'always' facial flushing among the ADH1B*1/*2 carriers was significantly lower than that among the ADH1B*2/*2 carriers in the older group (P \ 0.01). The alcohol consumption (unit/day) in the ADH1B*1/*2 carriers tended to be higher compared with that in the ADH1B*2/*2 carriers among the older group (P = 0.050). In the younger group, no significant differences in alcohol sensitivity and drinking habits were generally found among the ADH1B genotypes. The ADH1B*1/*1 genotype tended to be positively associated with problem drinking in the older group (P = 0.080) but not in the younger group. The ALDH2 genotypes consistently and strongly affected the alcohol sensitivity, drinking behavior and problem drinking in both the younger and older group. Conclusions We for the first time observed a significant difference in alcohol sensitivity between ADH1B*1/*2 and ADH1B*2/*2 in older men aged 65 and above.
