A high density of common melanocytic nevi correlates with an increased life-time risk of evolving cutaneous malignant melanoma. Effective strategies for sun protection, starting in early childhood, are considered of great importance to reduce the steadily rising melanoma trend.
Objective: To investigate the 5-year changes in sun tanning habits, sun protective regimens and density of common melanocytic nevi between two age-standardized populations of children.
Method: Population-based cross-sectional study performed among 7-year-old children in southern Sweden ...
