Family history of melanoma and Parkinson disease risk.

BACKGROUND: Co-occurrence of Parkinson disease (PD) and melanoma has been reported in numerous studies. If this was due to common genetic mechanisms, a positive family history of melanoma would be associated with an excessive PD risk, independent of environmental risk factors for PD. METHODS: We prospectively examined associations between a family history of melanoma and PD among 157,036 men and women free of PD...
