| Abstract |
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) have received increasing attention as potential chemopreventive agents of skin cancer, but evidence is inconsistent. To investigate whether the use of aspirin and other NSAIDS reduces the risk of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), we conducted a systematic review on the basis of published epidemiologic studies and calculated summary estimates for aspirin, nonaspirin NSAIDS, and any NSAIDS use. Summary estimates from nine studies (five case-control, three cohort, and one intervention) indicated significantly reduced risks of SCC among users of nonaspirin NSAIDS (relative risk (RR) 0.85, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.78-0.94) and among users of any NSAIDS (RR 0.82, 95% CI 0.71-0.94) compared with nonusers with the effect seen particularly in those with previous actinic skin tumors. A reduced risk was also observed among aspirin users, although with borderline statistical significance (RR 0.88 95% CI 0.75-1.03). There was significant heterogeneity between studies regarding SCC risk estimates for aspirin use and any NSAIDS use. These findings suggest that NSAIDS collectively have the potential to prevent the development of cutaneous SCC.Journal of Investigative Dermatology advance online publication, 29 January 2015; doi:10.1038/jid.2014.531. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 150. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 October 2015.
All research outputs
#274,929
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Investigative Dermatology
#68
of 8,996 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,035
of 360,189 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Investigative Dermatology
#1
of 89 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 98th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,996 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.3. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 360,189 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 89 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its contemporaries.
