Critique of the International Agency for Research on Cancer meta-analyses of the association of sunbed use with risk of cutaneous malignant melanoma
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
This study plotted the RRs versus latitude of each study population, with a linear regression analysis carried out for all but the one UK study, and argued that factors other than sunbed use explain the increasing worldwide trends in CMM.
