This study aims to assess the knowledge level of individuals aged > 65 years regarding sun exposure and their current use of sunscreen products. Materials and Method: A questionnaire consisting of 22 questions was prepared to measure sun protection awareness and use of sunscreen products by individuals aged > 65 years. Between July and August 2017, the questionnaire was administered to 603 patients who presented to outpatient clinics. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software; a p-value of. < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: The average age of the 603 participants was 67.8 years; 202 (33.5%) of them stated that they generally remained in the sun for 4-6 h, and 518 (86.3%) indicated that they had not received any information about sun protection. Conclusion: We found that individuals aged >= 65 years had insufficient knowledge of the dangers of excessive sun exposure and were not protected from it. In order to reduce the risk of skin cancer in Turkey, education regarding lifestyle modification, sun protection, and use of sunscreen should be provided and relevant health policies should be formulated for these trainings to become a part of lifestyle there.Öğe Evaluation of the effects of digital play addiction on eating attitudes(Professıonal medıcal publıcatıons, panorama centre, rm 522, 5th floor, bldg 2, raja ghazanfar alı rd, po box 8766, saddar, karachı 00000, pakıstan, 2018) Tetik, Burcu Kayhan; Kayhan, Duygu; Sertkaya, Serap; Sandikci, Kamuran BaharObjective: To evaluate the impact of digital game addiction on the eating habits of adolescents aged between 9 and 15. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted as a survey of 972 middle school students. All data was evaluated with SPSS 22 software, and p<0.05 was accepted as statistically significant. Results: The mean age of the students was 12.0 +/- 1.29. It was found that male students spent more time playing digital games than the females and the more they played, the higher the risk level of their Eating Habit Index became, and the difference for both groups was statistically significant (p<0.001). It was also determined that students from the houses with easy access to internet tend to play digital games for longer periods of time (p<0.001). Conclusion: As a result, children at adolescence age need to be taught which games, how long and when to play and be able to limit them instead of getting banned from playing. We are of the opinion that subjects of digital game addiction and appropriate and efficient use of computers need to be included in the curriculum within the scope of Media Literacy and Information Technologies and Software lessons in order to raise the children's awareness.Öğe Evaluatıon of sunbathıng and protectıon awareness accordıng to thesocıodemographıc characterıstıcs of ındıvıduals aged above 65 years(Gunes kıtabevı ltd stı, m rauf ınan sok no 3, ankara, sıhhıye 06410, turkey, 2018) Kayhan Tetik, Burcu; Sarac, Gulbahar; Mete, Burak; Sener, Serpil; Kalem, Hulya; Kilic, EvrimIntroduction: Because excessive exposure to solar radiation contributes to the aging of skin and the risk of skin cancer, protection from sunlight has become an important public health problem.
