Nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC),which includes squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and basal cell carcinoma (BCC), is the most common form of cancer, and its incidence is increasing. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been reported to be chemopreventive for NMSC. However, the results from published studies were controversial.
We searched the PubMed and Embase databases for relevant studies. Moreover, relevant reviews regarding the use of NSAIDs for NMSC patients were examined for potential inclusive studies. To measure the effects of NSAIDs, the relative risk (RR) was analyzed.
A Total of 8 studies were included in our meta-analysis. We found that NSAIDs use was not associated with a reduced risk of SCC or BCC under the random effects model (pooled RR = 0.86, 95% CI, 0.73-1.02, P = 0.085; pooled RR = 0.94, 95% CI 0.85-1.04, P = 0.266; respectively).
From the included studies, we found no statistically significant chemopreventive effect on NMSC of NSAIDs. This finding warrants more prospective studies evaluating the relationship between NSAIDs and NMSC.
非黑色素瘤皮肤癌(NMSC)包括鳞状细胞癌(SCC)和基底细胞癌(BCC),是最常见的癌症形式,其发病率正在上升。据报道,非甾体抗炎药(NSAIDs)对NMSC具有化学预防作用。然而,已发表研究的结果存在争议。
我们在PubMed和Embase数据库中检索了相关研究。此外,还查阅了有关NSAIDs用于NMSC患者的相关综述,以寻找可能纳入的研究。为了衡量NSAIDs的效果,我们分析了相对风险(RR)。
我们的荟萃分析共纳入了8项研究。我们发现,在随机效应模型下,使用NSAIDs与SCC或BCC风险降低无关(合并RR = 0.86,95%CI为0.73 - 1.02,P = 0.085;合并RR = 0.94,95%CI为0.85 - 1.04,P = 0.266)。
从纳入的研究中,我们发现NSAIDs对NMSC没有统计学上显著的化学预防作用。这一发现需要更多前瞻性研究来评估NSAIDs与NMSC之间的关系。
