Abstract in brief

This large prospective study investigated the relationship between dietary and supplemental niacin intake and the risk of different types of skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and melanoma, in US women and men.
The findings suggest that higher niacin intake may be associated with a reduced risk of SCC, but has a marginal positive association with BCC and melanoma risk, especially in men.
Overall, the study indicates a potential protective effect of niacin against SCC, but does not support its protective role for BCC or melanoma.]
