Effects of sex on naevus body distribution and melanoma risk in two melanoma case-control studies at different latitudes.

The article examines the effects of naevus body distribution and melanoma risk in two melanoma case-control studies in Great Britain and Australia. Topics discussed include a comparison of body-site mean naevus counts according to sex, logistic regression on melanoma risk based on numbers of naevi according to sex, and high incidence of naevi on the trunk in men.
