“…Similar correlations were observed when SeC and BCC were studied separately, but no statistically significant correlations were present between MM and NL. The geographic difference of the skin cancer incidence, therefore, was apparently influenced by the UV dose, which is a known carcinogenic factor for the skin cancers among Caucasians (12,13). UV carcinogenesis, however, could not explain the recent increase in skin cancers and MM except that the recent increase in the elderly age population would be partially responsible for the increase of skin cancers.…”

A total of 829 patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), 942 patients with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and 256 patients with malignant melanoma (MM) was encountered among 1,033,678 new dermatology patients in 44 of 46 university hospitals of Japan between 1971 and 1975. The incidences of skin cancers (SCC and BCC) and of MM among new dermatology patients were 0.171% and 0.025% respectively. The incidences had increased 2 to 2.5 times over those of the previous survey between 1956 and 1960.Skin cancers were most frequently seen among those over 60 years of age and on exposed sites. Burn scars, chronic radiodermatitis, traumatic scars and xeroderma pigmentosum were common preceding diseases in skin cancers, although the majority of the cancers were without apparent preceding diseases. The incidence of skin cancers on exposed sites without preceding diseases showed a statistically significant exponential correlation with the decreasing degrees of the Northern Latitude (NL) of the university locations. The incidence of MM was most common on the extremities and showed no such geographic correlation.

“…structural) are summarized in Table 3. The first six variables (density, centrality degree, betweenness, closeness, cliques and components) are genuine network measures widely used in social network analysis for depiction of structural patterns and social group hierarchies (De Nooy et al, 2005;Marsden, 1990;Scott, 2000;Wasserman and Faust, 1994;).…”

“…Cliques and components are basic measures for subgroup detection and are strongly related to the concepts of cohesion and social circles (De Nooy et al, 2005;Scott, 2000). Cliques are the strictest subnetwork components and in the personal networks suggest the actual existence of structural subgroups (McCarty, 2002: 6).…”

In this article, we analyse the process of migration by applying a social network methodology. Using the personal network approach, we focus on a case study of the Brazil-US migration system to analyse the formation of the so-called "industry of illegal migration". We suggest that in migration systems, brokerage evolves not only because of historical and cultural changes, but also because the changes emerge within a structured environment in which brokerage can thrive, and this, in turn, causes the social networks to support and produce specialized actors (individuals and organizations) embedded in the "right positions" of the social structure in the migration process. In this particular case study, we suggest that brokerage seems to take place through gender-oriented networks and the personal experience and structural power of returned migrants. These returned migrants usually have more varied social contacts and types of relationships from which they can obtain richer information about the migration system.
