Risk Factors and Treatments Impacts for the Gene of Two Different Types of Skin Cancer: Survival Analysis

Huiying Hu · Theoretical and Natural Science · 2023

Two distinct types of skin cancer are Cutaneous Melanoma and Melanoma of Uncertain Primary. Their causes may be distinct. Several variables, including genetic mutation, UV exposure, sex, age, and others, will affect the survival months. In this study, the Kaplan-Meier method and the Cox model will be used to compare the two types of skin cancer. For the KM technique, one unique variable will be employed to assess its association with the survival months. Cox model will employ multiple variables to describe the overall association between several variables and the survival months. In conclusion, the difference on sex will have a distinct impact on two different kinds of skin cancer. Genetic expression does not clearly differentiate between them. UV exposure and therapy have a substantial impact on the number of months of survival for Cutaneous Melanoma. The results of the study indicate that additional research and prevention are required. Prevention is almost always more effective than treatment for cancer. For specific patient populations, clinicians should prioritize skin cancer prevention and therapy.
