Abstract

Sexual and gender minority (SGM) populations include individuals whose sexual orientation, gender identity, or reproductive development is characterized by nonbinary sexual constructs (e.g., lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals). Previous research suggests that some SGM populations have higher rates of skin cancer. The purpose of this study was to assess the association of diverse SGM identities with indoor tanning, a risk factor for skin cancer, while exploring other relevant co-occurring risk factors. A secondary analysis was performed on the 2020 LGBT Health Needs Assessment collected by the Pennsylvania Department of Health. Measures included sexual orientation, gender identity, healthcare utilization, and cancer risk factors. Cisgender SGM men are more likely to use indoor tanning devices (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.79; 95% CI: 1.31-2.44) compared to other SGM subpopulations independent of sexual orientation. Indoor tanning was also associated with alcohol (aOR = 1.94; 95% CI: 1.50-2.51) and tobacco use (aOR = 1.64; 95% CI: 1.21-2.21). Findings suggest that targeted screening for skin cancer risk behaviors could accompany standard tobacco and alcohol screenings in clinical practice.

性少数和性别少数青少年和成年人的室内美黑:来自2020年宾夕法尼亚州LGBT健康需求评估的结果
性和性别少数群体(SGM)包括性取向、性别认同或生殖发育以非二元性结构为特征的个体(如女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和变性者(LGBT)个体)。先前的研究表明,一些SGM人群患皮肤癌的几率更高。本研究的目的是评估不同的SGM身份与室内晒黑(皮肤癌的一个危险因素)之间的关系,同时探索其他相关的共同发生的危险因素。对宾夕法尼亚州卫生部收集的2020年LGBT健康需求评估进行了二次分析。测量包括性取向、性别认同、医疗保健利用和癌症风险因素。顺性别SGM男性更有可能使用室内美黑设备(调整优势比(aOR) = 1.79;95% CI: 1.31-2.44),与其他与性取向无关的SGM亚群相比。室内晒黑也与酒精有关(aOR = 1.94;95% CI: 1.50-2.51)和烟草使用(aOR = 1.64;95% ci: 1.21-2.21)。研究结果表明,在临床实践中,针对皮肤癌风险行为的针对性筛查可以与标准的烟草和酒精筛查相结合。
