Current literature review indicates that there is an increase in risk of skin melanoma due to the use of sunbeds.
To assess behaviors and opinions about health risk related to tanning.
From March 2012 to June of the same year, nonrepresentative cross-sectional study was conducted online concerning knowledge and behaviors during tanning. Data from 4919 people (80% of women, median age 25 years [IQR: 20-36]) were analyzed statistically with R software (level of significance at α = .05). We used the authors "active users of sunbeds" (AUS) criterion, denoting person using it ≥2 times per year with an average sessions lasting ≥5 minutes (cutoff values above 1 quartile). The reference was those not meeting above criteria.
A total of 926 persons (18.8%) stated that they use sunbeds, while 680 (13.8%) met the criterion of AUS. Within the AUS group, the median number of visits in the tanning beds rooms was 10 (IQR: 5-15) per year, with single session lasting 9 (IQR: 7-10) minutes. The majority (83.5%) of AUS tanned naked indoors, with only 47.4% to have used safety glasses. These individuals were significantly more likely to be women, better educated, and were considered outdoor tanners. AUS were less aware of the risks associated with sunburns, with equal use of sunscreen and reapplication more frequently (as non-AUS).
The level of knowledge in the field of prevention of melanoma was similar in both groups; however, AUS group more frequently took risky behaviors related to sun exposure.
当前文献综述表明,使用日光浴床会增加皮肤黑色素瘤的风险。
评估与晒黑相关的健康风险行为和观点。
2012年3月至同年6月,针对晒黑期间的知识和行为进行了一项非代表性的在线横断面研究。使用R软件对4919人(80%为女性,中位年龄25岁[四分位间距:20 - 36岁])的数据进行统计分析(显著性水平α = 0.05)。我们采用作者的“日光浴床活跃使用者”(AUS)标准,即每年使用日光浴床≥2次且每次平均时长≥5分钟(截断值高于四分位数)。参照组为不符合上述标准的人。
共有926人(18.8%)表示使用日光浴床,其中680人(13.8%)符合AUS标准。在AUS组中,每年去日光浴床房间的次数中位数为10次(四分位间距:5 - 15次),单次时长为9分钟(四分位间距:7 - 10分钟)。大多数(83.5%)AUS在室内裸体晒黑,只有47.4%的人使用了安全眼镜。这些人更可能是女性,受教育程度更高,且被视为户外晒黑者。AUS对晒伤相关风险的认知较低,使用防晒霜的情况与非AUS组相同,但更频繁地重新涂抹。
两组在黑色素瘤预防领域的知识水平相似;然而,AUS组更频繁地采取与日晒相关的危险行为。
