Frequency of sunscreen and shade/umbrella usage in CLE patients subgrouped by demographics and social characteristics. (A–B), Means and SDs were calculated for frequencies of sunscreen usage by CLE patients of male (N=15) and female (N=90) genders (A); and skin types I–II (N=22), III–IV (N=33), and V–VI (N=44) (B). (C–E), Means and SDs were calculated for frequencies of shade/umbrella usage by CLE patients of male (N=15) and female (N=90) genders (C); spending less than 2 (N=53), 2–4 (N=23), 4–6 (N=6), and greater than 6 (N=18) hours per week in the sun (D); and who work outdoors (N=12) and indoors (N=87) (E). Frequencies of sunscreen and shade/umbrella usage were assessed using a 4-point Likert scale (1=rarely, 2=sometimes, 3=often, and 4=always). Kruskal-Wallis tests and Mann-Whitney U tests were performed to determine statistical significance. *: p≤0.05, **: p≤0.005, ***: p≤0.001
