Abstract

For the first time, the 2013 Colorado Youth Risk Behavior Survey assessed indoor tanning practices of Colorado high school students. The survey revealed that girls are more likely to use indoor tanning devices than boys and that the majority of students who tan do so once or twice annually. Health care professionals and policymakers should focus on these groups in efforts to curtail indoor tanning and the associated risk of skin cancer in youth.

摘要

2013年科罗拉多青少年风险行为调查首次对科罗拉多州高中生的室内晒黑行为进行了评估。调查显示，女孩比男孩更有可能使用室内晒黑设备，而且大多数进行室内晒黑的学生每年只晒一两次。医疗保健专业人员和政策制定者应关注这些群体，努力减少青少年的室内晒黑行为以及与之相关的皮肤癌风险。
