“…In line with this association, various recent experimental studies to test these effects in young target groups aimed at promoting sunscreen use as an end point [19][20][21][22], and others used various UV protection behaviors (including avoiding sunbeds) or behavior scores [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. Given the substantial amount of time that children and adolescents of all social backgrounds spend in the school environment, addressing skin cancer prevention in this setting is crucial and provides a unique opportunity to propel skin cancer prevention programs [35].…”

“…Las mutaciones genéticas en las queratosis actínicas son similares a las que se encuentran en los carcinomas escamocelulares lo que sugiere la progresión de las primeras a las segundas (55). Asimismo, desde el punto de vista histológico se observa una progresión de una displasia focal en la queratosis actínica a un displasia completa de la epidermis en los carcinomas escamocelulares in situ que puede llevar a un carcinoma escamocelular invasor (56). Las queratosis actínicas son producidas por la exposición a la radiación ultravioleta y se localizan en las áreas expuestas al sol (57).…”
