Q: NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — A new study suggests white wine may be a melanoma risk factor. 
  
 We know that moderate alcohol consumption is good for your heart, but it also increases your risk for liver, colon and breast cancer. 
  
 Now, we may need to add melanoma to that list, CBS2’s Dr. Max Gomez reported. But there are some curious quirks in the study that puzzled doctors. 
  
 Harvey Brody said he’s a lucky man. The 74-year-old West Side resident got a heart transplant at Mount Sinai Hospital two years ago, despite other doctors telling him that he wasn’t an eligible candidate. 
  
 However, years of sun exposure in Arizona and the anti-rejection drugs he takes have led to him developing lots of melanoma skin cancers. 
  
 “I’ve had quite a few, I don’t know the exact number,” he said. 
  
 Brody may also have another melanoma risk factor — one that no one suspected. 
  
 “I do drink wine, yes I do. Not a lot, but I do drink wine,” he said. 
  
 A new study in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention analyzed health records of more than 200,000 white people and found that just one drink of alcohol a day raised the risk of melanoma by 13 percent, but only if the alcohol was white wine. 
  
 “I would have expected both red and white wines to have very similar findings,” said Dr. Hooman Khorasani, of Mount Sinai Health System. 
  
 The study’s authors said wine contains some carcinogenic compounds called acetaldehydes that might be counterbalanced by anti-oxidants in red wine. 
  
 Also curious was that the melanomas found in white wine drinkers tended to be in non-sun-exposed body areas. 
  
 All that, and the fact that the increased risk was also small for this type of study, led most skin cancer experts to come to a similar conclusion. 
  
 “I would not necessarily stop drinking completely,” Khorasani said. “I don’t think the data are strong enough to support that,” Khorasani said. 
  
 Even though Brody ended up getting a biopsy for another suspected melanoma on Thursday, he said he wouldn’t change his habits. 
  
 “Glass of red wine every so often,” he said. 
  
 It’s also important to note that this kind of study is just a statistical association, meaning it does not prove cause and effect. It’s possible the correlation with white wine is a fluke, especially a in study that relies on people self-reporting their drinking habits, Gomez reported. ||||| Alcohol has been linked to several different cancers, some more strongly than others. Now a study adds a new type of cancer to the list, and it's an unexpected one: Brown University researchers say that drinking, even in moderate amounts, is associated with higher rates of melanoma -- the deadliest form of skin cancer. 
  
 Their research revealed more interesting facts, as well. In the study, white wine had a bigger impact on melanoma risk than red wine, beer, or liquor. And compared with teetotalers, alcohol drinkers' increased risk was greatest for body parts that normally aren't exposed to the sun. 
  
 Some scientists have speculated that alcohol may make us more susceptible to sunburns, says co-author Eunyoung Cho, ScD, an associate professor of dermatology and epidemiology at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University. But the new findings indicate there may be something else going on beneath the surface, she says. 
  
 About 3.6% of cancer cases worldwide are thought to be caused by alcohol, the authors note. "For some, like cancers of the digestive tract, the alcohol actually comes in contact with the tissue, so it's easier to understand," says Cho. "For others, like breast cancer, we don't really have a great explanation at this point why alcohol would be related." 
  
 One theory, she says, is that a compound in alcohol called acetaldehyde can damage DNA, and prevent DNA repair, throughout the body. "It's a well known carcinogen, so that could be a very general mechanism as to how alcohol relates to cancer at other sites," she says. 
  
 There's been little research on alcohol and skin cancer risk, however, and the studies that have been conducted have been inconclusive. They haven't included much information about participants' sun exposure, says Cho, which could affect the results. 
  
 So Cho and her colleagues collected data from three large studies involving 210,252 participants, all of whom provided information about their drinking habits, place of residence, and health history -- including details about sunburns and tanning. Over an 18-year follow-up period, 1,374 people (less than 1% of all participants) were diagnosed with invasive melanoma. 
  
 The results, published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, showed that each drink per day was associated with a 14% higher risk of melanoma . (A standard drink was defined as 12.8 grams of pure alcohol, or about the amount found in one beer, glass of wine, or shot of hard liquor.) 
  
 And when the researchers looked at each beverage type individually, they found that one drink stood out: Each glass of white wine per day was associated with a 13% increased risk of melanoma, while other forms of alcohol did not affect risk in a statistically meaningful way. 
  
 Some research has shown that wine has higher levels of acetaldehyde than beer or spirits, says Cho, while red wine's greater antioxidant content may offset the risks of these compounds. 
  
 But she won't let other beverages off the hook just yet. "Other alcoholic beverages did show some positive correlation, but did not reach statistical significance," she says. "For now, I would say that alcohol in general is related, and I would emphasize that white wine is particularly related." 
  
 Another surprise came when the researchers looked at melanoma rates on different body parts. People who drank 20 grams or more of alcohol per day (a little less than two drinks) were only 2% more likely than non-drinkers to be diagnosed with melanomas of the head, neck, arms, or legs. But they were 73% more likely to be diagnosed with melanomas of the trunk -- a body part often covered by clothing. 
  
 More research is needed to explain why this may be the case, says Cho. "There is a hypothesis that melanomas on different body sites may have different risk factors," she says. "Based on these findings, I might guess that this type of cancer is less related to sun exposure and more related to a biological mechanism of alcohol damaging DNA or preventing DNA repair." 
  
 The study only included white people, so the results cannot be generalized to other races or ethnic groups. And because it was observational, it was not able to determine a cause-and-effect relationship between alcohol (and white wine specifically) and melanoma rates.

 But the study did control for several factors, including the number of severe sunburns participants had ever had, their number of moles, and the average amount of ultraviolet radiation where they lived. These adjustments help strengthen the theory that alcohol really does play a role in melanoma development, Cho says -- and not simply that people who drink regularly, or who prefer white wine, are more likely to spend hours by the pool or on the beach. (One thing they weren't able to take into account, however, was sun-protection behaviors, such as using sunscreen.) 
  
 "There are many risk factors for melanoma that you cannot change, like family history, hair color, and susceptibility to sunburn," Cho says. "But drinking alcohol is something you can change, so it's actually good to know that alcohol is related to melanoma as well as other cancers." ||||| Many studies have shown that drinking wine, especially red wine, seems to have modest benefits for heart health, as long as you drink it in moderate amounts. A study published this week, though, offers a more worrisome message: white wine might increase your risk of skin cancer. 
  
 The bottom line: a daily glass of white wine carries a 13% increased risk of melanoma, one of the deadliest forms of skin cancer. Surprisingly, though, red wine did not carry the same risk. In fact, when the authors separated out beer, red wine, white wine and other forms of alcohol, only white wine carried any risk for melanoma. 
  
 Should you cut back on white wine based on this new finding? I read the study to find out more. 
  
 The new study, led by Eunyoung Cho from Brown University, appeared in the most recent issue of a journal published by the American Association for Cancer Research. It's a large, carefully done analysis of survey information from over 210,000 health professionals, about two-thirds of them nurses, followed over an 18-year period. The 210,000 participants came from three studies: two studies of nurses and one of male health professionals. About three-quarters of the participants were female, and the vast majority were white (which means the findings might not apply to non-white populations). 
  
 One feature I always look for in an analysis like this is a dose-response effect. If the effect is genuine, then higher doses (in this case, more alcohol) should increase the risk. The authors here found that people who drank the most alcohol had the greatest increase in risk. The study also controlled for all the usual confounding factors, such as family history of cancer and smoking. 
  
 In some subgroups–those who drank the most white wine–the increased in relative risk of melanoma was 50% or more. Keep in mind, though, that this is "relative risk." I'll get to that in a minute. 
  
 When the researchers looked at where the cancer occurred, they found that the risk of melanoma was "far greater" on areas of the body that don't receive regular sun exposure, such as the stomach and back, compared to the arms or neck where people get the most sun. This result suggests that the effect of white wine is unrelated to sun exposure. |||||
A: 
If you're undecided about whether your next glass of wine should be red or white, a new study out of Brown University may provide the tipping point: It suggests that white wine raises the risk of skin cancer. While researchers have long known that alcohol in general can raise the risk of certain cancers, this is the first time melanoma has been on the list, reports CNN. To be clear, the relative risk associated with white wine is small, but researchers still found it to be statistically significant. What's more, the increased risk seemed to affect parts of the body you wouldn't typically associate with skin cancer, such as the trunk, which is generally covered in clothes. The reasons for all this is unclear, reports CBS News. "For now, I would say that alcohol in general is related, and I would emphasize that white wine is particularly related," says study co-author Eunyoung Cho. She notes that white wine has high levels of acetaldehyde, a carcinogen that can damage DNA, and while red wine does as well, one theory is that its antioxidants might counterbalance the chemical. So should you give up your favorite white? Researchers aren't going that far. A science blogger at Forbes assesses the study, which examined data from more than 200,000 health professionals over 18 years, and concludes: "I'm still a bit skeptical, because we have no good explanation for why white wine–but not red wine, beer or other alcohol–would cause skin cancer. But still, when you reach for a glass of wine this holiday season, perhaps you should choose red instead of white."
