Source abstract
Thirteen children with xeroderma pigmentosum variant C were evaluated using the Dermoscopic Photoaging Assessment Scale (DPAS), the Glogau scale, and the Sun Protection Behavior Scale (SPBS). Most patients exhibited signs of epidermal photoaging, with pigmentary and vascular changes and poor sun protection behavior (mean SPBS score: 18.92 ± 5.69). The mean DPAS score of 13.15 correlated with the Glogau scale and ocular severity score. Sun protection behavior improved significantly at 6 months after repeated reinforcement of sun protection measures (35 ± 5.68).
