| Descripción : | Introduction: In Ecuador skin cancer is among the common cancerous diseases for both sexes. It is a multifactorial disease; which main risk factor is exposure to ultraviolet rays. INAMHI reports indicate critical increases in the level of ultraviolet radiation. However, for an impact on health to occur, there must be a time of exposure, with an increase in cases in the world population after 40 years of age. Therefore, the aim is to establish the correlation between both variables in Ecuador. Objective: To establish if there is a correlation between ultraviolet radiation indices and the prevalence of non-melanoma skin cancer from the age of 40 in the provinces studied in the period 2015-2018. Materials and methods: Secondary study of an ecological database. Where it is sought to establish the existing correlation between the variables presented. Using information from sources such as INAMHI, INEC, PubMed, Google Schoolar and SOLCA. Results: There is no statistically significant relationship between the annual rates of UV radiation and the prevalence of NMSC cases in the provinces studied. The prevalence of cases is higher in the provinces of the Sierra region, age group 80 years, female sex and urban areas. Moderate and high levels of radiation are reported in all provinces, being highest in the Sierra region. In the analysis by region, a significant correlation was found between the monthly UV radiation indices and the number of NMSC cases in the Sierra and Costa regions, not for the Amazon. Conclusions: There is no correlation between the prevalence of NMSC and the annual indices of UV radiation. The prevalence of cases is higher in the Sierra provinces, as well as from the age of 80, in the female sex and the urban area. The correlation between monthly rates of UV radiation and the number of NMSC cases in the Sierra and Costa regions is significant. |
