Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) association with Melanoma

Arch Dermatol Res. 2024 Jun 8;316(7):381. doi: 10.1007/s00403-024-03150-6.

ABSTRACT

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are forms of abuse, neglect, or household dysfunction before the age of 18. We found individuals exposed to ACEs are at increased odds of receiving a melanoma diagnosis. ACEs range from people whose parents divorced in childhood (OR 1.64) to people who were physically hurt by their parents (OR 2.41).
