Sun protection early in life is an essential issue for primary prevention of skin cancers. The Il Sole per Amico was an educational campaign among 66 Italian primary schools. A total of 12,188 questionnaires were completed at baseline. Overall, 9.4% children reported >1 sunburn during the last year and 44.7% parents a use of sunlamps. Independent factors associated with sunburns were: age, lower level of parents' education, light eye and skin color, freckles, nevi on arms, intense sun exposure during the last year, sporadic use of sunscreens, and parental use of sunlamps. A total of 7280 (59.7%) questionnaires were completed at the end of the educational intervention. No significant difference was documented about behavior between the pre- and post-intervention periods. A significant reduction was instead found in both prevalence of recent sunburns and total number of sunburn episodes after comparison with the data obtained by identical questionnaire in the same geographic areas in the "Sole Si Sole No" project in 2001.
早年的防晒是皮肤癌一级预防的重要问题。“阳光挚友”是一项在66所意大利小学开展的教育活动。基线时共完成了12188份问卷。总体而言，9.4%的儿童报告在过去一年中晒伤超过1次，44.7%的家长报告使用过太阳灯。与晒伤相关的独立因素有：年龄、父母教育程度较低、浅眼色和肤色、雀斑、手臂上的痣、过去一年中强烈的阳光照射、偶尔使用防晒霜以及父母使用太阳灯。教育干预结束时共完成了7280份（59.7%）问卷。干预前后的行为无显著差异。然而，与2001年“阳光就是阳光不”项目在同一地理区域通过相同问卷获得的数据相比，近期晒伤的患病率和晒伤发作总数均显著降低。
