摘要

导论:皮肤癌预防运动旨在减少可改变的危险因素,但高危人群往往保持不充分的保护措施。目的:本研究分析了意大利2023年“拯救你的皮肤”活动的数据,该活动在全国范围内提供免费皮肤检查。方法:收集了来自13个地区29个中心的1773名参与者的数据,以评估阳光照射、光防护习惯和皮肤癌意识,确定预防工作的差距。结果:大多数参与者为女性(70.16%),中位年龄为36岁,96.61%出生在意大利。71.24%是为了预防而参加,其余则是由于痣的变化(12.35%)、个人(2.31%)或家庭(7.33%)的皮肤癌病史而参加。对痣的自我评估通常与皮肤科医生的评估不一致,但家庭和个人病史报告更准确。参与者对痣和黑色素瘤表现出混淆:只有52.7%的人正确地将痣识别为良性,而67.2%的人将黑色素瘤识别为恶性。平均而言,参与者正确回答了三个知识问题中的1.57个,那些有家庭或个人皮肤癌病史的人表现更好。37.78%的参与者有高危日晒行为。老年人使用防晒霜的频率较低,但更依赖于戴帽子和遮阳,而年轻人在工作时较少暴露在阳光下。值得注意的是,有光化损伤的参与者表现出较低的意识,并且在光防护方面提供了较少的正确答案。结论:这些发现强调需要有针对性的公共卫生策略来改善皮肤癌预防的教育,特别是在高危人群和老年人群中。

Enhancing Skin Cancer Prevention and Awareness in the Italian Population: Insights from the "Save Your Skin" Screening Campaign.

Introduction: Skin cancer prevention campaigns aim to reduce modifiable risk factors, yet high-risk groups often maintain inadequate protection practices.

Objectives: This study analyzed data from Italy's 2023 "Save Your Skin" campaign, which provided free skin checks nationwide.

Methods: Data from 1,773 participants across 29 centers in 13 regions were collected to assess sun exposure, photoprotection habits, and skin cancer awareness, identifying gaps in prevention efforts.

Results: Most participants were female (70.16%), with a median age of 36, and 96.61% were born in Italy. While 71.24% joined for prevention reasons, others participated due to changes in a nevus (12.35%) or personal (2.31%) or family (7.33%) history of skin cancer. Self-assessments of nevi often did not align with dermatologists' evaluations, but family and personal history reporting was more accurate. Participants showed confusion about nevi and melanoma: only 52.7% correctly identified nevi as benign, while 67.2% recognized melanoma as malignant. On average, participants answered 1.57 out of three knowledge questions correctly, with those having a family or personal history of skin cancer performing better. High-risk sun exposure behaviors were identified in 37.78% of participants. Older adults used sunscreen less frequently but relied more on hats and shade, while younger individuals reported less sun exposure at work. Notably, participants with actinic damage demonstrated lower awareness and provided fewer correct answers on photoprotection.

Conclusions: These findings underscore the need for targeted public health strategies to improve education on skin cancer prevention, particularly among high-risk and older populations.
