暴露于室内晒黑设备的紫外线辐射(UVR)被认为会导致黑色素瘤和其他负面健康后果。尽管有这些发现,室内晒黑的做法在美国仍然很普遍。在本文中,我们的目的是提出一个明确的讨论室内晒黑和黑色素瘤的风险之间的关系,并确定潜在的策略,有效的黑色素瘤预防解决室内晒黑设备的使用。我们回顾了室内晒黑的风险,目前的室内晒黑立法,室内晒黑和黑色素瘤发病率的趋势的相关文献。研究于2014年至2015年在南加州大学(洛杉矶,CA)进行。我们的研究结果重申了室内晒黑和黑色素瘤风险之间的关系,并表明公众对室内晒黑的负面影响存在广泛的误解。这篇评论主张采取积极主动的行动,以减少美国的室内晒黑,设计针对特定高风险群体的预防措施,并需要更好地告知公众室内晒黑的风险。我们提出了一个简洁的审查目前的证据对室内晒黑的风险。我们确定了室内晒黑最有可能产生负面结果的人群。我们评估了旨在减少室内晒黑流行率的现行立法。我们主张针对特定的高危人群采取积极的反晒黑措施。我们重申,有必要就室内晒黑的健康风险进行广泛的公众教育。
Exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) from indoor tanning devices is thought to cause melanoma and other negative health consequences. Despite these findings, the practice of indoor tanning in the United States remains prevalent. In this paper we aim to present a clear discussion of the relationship between indoor tanning and melanoma risk, and to identify potential strategies for effective melanoma prevention by addressing indoor tanning device use. We reviewed relevant literature on the risks of indoor tanning, current indoor tanning legislation, and trends in indoor tanning and melanoma incidence. Study was conducted at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA between the years of 2014 and 2015. Our findings reaffirm the relationship between indoor tanning and melanoma risk, and suggest a widespread public misunderstanding of the negative effects of indoor tanning. This review argues for an aggressive initiative to reduce indoor tanning in the United States, to design prevention efforts tailored towards specific high risk groups, and the need to better inform the public of the risks of indoor tanning. We present a concise review of current evidence on the risks of indoor tanning. We identify populations most at risk of negative outcomes from indoor tanning. We evaluate current legislation aimed to reduce the prevalence of indoor tanning. We argue for aggressive anti-tanning initiatives targeting specific high risk groups. We reaffirm the need for widespread public education on the health risks of indoor tanning.
