自20世纪60年代以来，丹麦的黑色素瘤发病率有所上升。2007年，丹麦发起了一项皮肤癌预防运动，目标之一是在丹麦广泛使用日光浴床。反日光浴浴床运动包括公共事务倡议和运动活动，其中包括社交媒体，以年轻人为主要目标。目的本研究的目的是描述2007-2009年运动开始后日光浴浴床使用的发展情况。方法选取14 514名年龄在15 ~ 59岁之间的调查对象，于2007 ~ 2009年完成4份有关人工紫外线照射的问卷调查。我们使用logistic回归分析检验了日光浴浴床使用、时间和人口统计学因素之间的关系。结果与2007年相比，2009年日光浴床使用者的比值比（OR）为0.61 (0.54-0.69)；15 ~ 19岁年龄组的OR为0.42（0.30 ~ 0.69）。然而，在2009年，23%的丹麦人（33%的15-19岁的人）在过去的12个月内仍然使用过日光浴床，超过50%的人经历过日光浴床造成的晒伤。2009年，大多数人，包括15-19岁年龄组的人，赞成限制18岁以下儿童进入日光浴浴床店。结论：丹麦日光浴浴床的使用随着活动的开展而减少，其中最年轻年龄组的变化最大，这是该活动的优先目标。结果表明，应该找到立法解决方案，以避免大量儿童暴露于紫外线辐射，并减少未来黑色素瘤的发病率。收稿日期：2010年7月22日；录用日期：2010年12月3日
Background Denmark has experienced an increase in melanoma incidence since the 1960s. In 2007, a skin cancer prevention campaign was launched, one of the targets being the widespread use of sunbeds in Denmark. The antisunbed campaign comprised public affairs initiatives and campaign activities, which included the social media, with young people as the main target.Objective The aim of this study was to describe the development in sunbed use after the start of the campaign in the period 2007-2009.Methods A population-based sample of 14 514 respondents aged 15-59 years completed four questionnaires in 2007-2009 on artificial exposure to ultraviolet radiation. We examined the relations between sunbed use, time and demographic factors using logistic regression analysis.Results The odds ratio (OR) for being a sunbed user in 2009 when compared with 2007 was 0.61 (0.54-0.69); in the age group of 15-19 years, the OR was 0.42 (0.30-0.69). In 2009, however, 23% of Danes (33% of 15-19-year-olds) still reported sunbed use within the past 12 months, and more than 50% had experienced sunburn caused by a sunbed. In 2009, the majority of the population, including the age group of 15-19 years, was in favour of restricting admission to sunbed parlours for children under 18 years.Conclusions Sunbed use in Denmark decreased concurrently with the campaign activities, with the largest change in the youngest age group, which was a prioritized target of the campaign. Results suggest that a legislative solution should be found to avoid exposure of a large proportion of children to ultraviolet radiation and to reduce future melanoma incidence.
