No association between physical activity and primary melanoma thickness in a cohort of Norwegian women

‘In a cohort of Norwegian woman aged 30–75 years at recruitment, we investigated the association between physical activity and melanoma thickness at diagnosis, the most important prognostic factor for localized primary melanoma survival. We concluded that physical activity is unlikely to be associat...
