These results reflect similar overall AK prevalence rates from other recent studies conducted in Netherlands and Austria (2061 inhabitants and 4449 dermatology patients, respectively) that showed a prevalence of 37.5% (49.0% in men and 28.1% in women, in patients >50 years old) and 31.0% (39.2% in men and 24.3% in women, aged ≥30), respectively.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7,8</span></a> By contrast, several studies have found lower prevalence rates within other study populations. For example, a study in the North of England found an AK prevalence of 15.4% in men and 5.9% in women, in a sample of 968 subjects >40 years attending outpatient clinics.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0130"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> Furthermore, large studies in Germany (determined in a cohort of 90,800 employees from 300 companies) and Italy (which included a total of 12,483 subjects selected from electoral rolls) displayed much a lower AK prevalence of 2.7% (3.9% in men and 1.5% in women, patients aged 16–70 years) and 1.4% (1.5% in men and 1.4% in women, in patients aged ≥45), respectively.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0110"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5,6</span></a> The low AK prevalence observed in Germany may be underestimated due to the age range of the selected population – employees aged 16–70 years old that did not include retirees, where AK is most prevalent, and included young people, in whom AK is very rare. More surprising is the low prevalence reported in Italy, given its similar climate to Spain. One possible explanation for the disparity results presented here and those of the Italian study is the staff who assessed the AK lesions; in this study the assessment was performed by certified dermatologists, whereas the Italian study assessments were performed by trained interviewers (2-h teaching session) who conducted a face-to-face interview at the subjects house.</p><p id="par0105" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Taken together, the results reported here and in other European studies suggest a highly variable prevalence that may be enhanced by subject selection which, among other factors, included different age groups. Moreover, in some studies the subject selection involved those attending dermatology services, while in other studies subjects were selected from electoral rolls, insurance companies’ data, or districts. In addition, the examination procedure in some studies was performed by dermatologists while in others it was performed by trained interviewers. Finally, the geographical location with different levels of UV radiation and different phototypes could also be a factor which contributed to the heterogeneity of the prevalence results reported.</p><p id="par0110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this study the prevalence of AK was observed to increase with age for both sexes, reaching 60.4% of patients older than 80. Similar observations were previously reported in other studies.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6,7,9</span></a> Moreover, in line with previous results, our data showed a higher prevalence of AK in men (38.4%) compared to women (20.8%).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0110"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5–10</span></a> A possible explanation for this higher AK prevalence in men could be an increased occupational lifetime sun exposure associated with outdoor work. Studies conducted in Austria and the UK demonstrated higher AK prevalence rates in outdoor workers.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11,12</span></a> Consistent with this, Harvey et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0135"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> also found cumulative sun exposure to be a significant risk factor associated to AK. Furthermore, a presumed lower-compliance with sun protection measures in men, differing hair coverage of the scalp and ears, and a much higher prevalence of baldness in men could also contribute to these sex differences.</p><p id="par0115" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">With regard to anatomical location, in this study AK lesions were correlated with the most intense chronic UV light exposure such as the forehead and scalp. The most frequently reported locations in men were the scalp and ears whereas for women the nose, cheek and neckline were more common. This data agrees with previous work which reported that the scalp was the most frequent location in bald men vs. women (47.5% in men vs. 0.0% in women<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a>). The difference in the frequency of lesions on the ears in men compared to women was also consistent with previous data from Youl et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a> and Eder et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> who reported that ears were 3.4 and 5.8 times, respectively, more commonly affected in men than women with AK. In this study, it should be noted that the frequency of lesions in the nose, cheek and neckline was significantly higher in women than in men. These results are in agreement with previous studies that found that lesions on the face were more frequent in women than in men and scalp and ears were more frequent in men versus women.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a> These differences in AK locations could be explained as areas like scalp and ears are more frequently uncovered in men than in women.</p><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In relation to the number of lesions, an increase with age was observed. Patients with only one lesion had a mean age of 71 years of age, whereas in those patients with more than 30 lesions a mean of 82 years of age was recorded. These results are in accordance with those reported by Flohil et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> which showed that age was significantly associated with extensive actinic damage (≥10 AKs). Moreover, it was observed that the number of affected areas increases with age, as previously reported.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a></p><p id="par0125" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It should be pointed out that 35% of patients with AK lesions ignored their presence. This shows that AK is an underdiagnosed disease and that a proactive strategy is required by the physician for the diagnosis and treatment of these lesions.</p><p id="par0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study has some limitations that should be noted. Firstly, the population of this study was restricted to patients visiting dermatology outpatient clinics, which may overestimate the number of patients with AK and might be not representative for the general population. Secondly, AK can be similar to SCC which may in some cases lead to misclassification. Nevertheless, some studies have showed a high predictive value for clinical AK diagnosis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0155"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> Thirdly, AK prevalence was determined using a cross-section of participants attending an outpatient clinic, thus it was unknown whether participants were previously treated for AK, which could have resulted in an underestimation of the AK prevalence.</p><p id="par0135" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to estimate of the prevalence of AK in adult dermatology outpatients in Spain. Nearly a quarter of 45-year-old patients or older were found to be affected with AK and this proportion increased with age. Knowledge about characteristics of patients with AK, geographic distribution, and AK locations will help to improve prevention, early detection and contribute to the development of effective treatment strategies to optimise clearance of AK lesions. Furthermore, early detection may have further downstream benefit in developing therapeutic interventions to prevent progression to invasive cutaneous neoplasia. Finally, it should be noted that almost than one-third of patients in this study have ignored the presence of these lesions, which suggest that AK is underdiagnosed and an early proactive detection and early treatment of AK lesions is needed in order to prevent the further development of invasive SCC.</p></span><span id="sec0040" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0115">Ethical disclosure</span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0120">Protection of human and animal subjects</span><p id="par0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors declare that the procedures followed were in accordance with the regulations of the relevant clinical research ethics committee and with those of the Code of Ethics of the World Medical Association (Declaration of Helsinki).</p></span><span id="sec0050" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0125">Confidentiality of data</span><p id="par0145" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors declare that they have followed the protocols of their work centre on the publication of patient data.</p></span><span id="sec0055" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0130">Right to privacy and informed consent</span><p id="par0150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors have obtained the written informed consent of the patients or subjects mentioned in the article.
