Conclusion
cutaneous melanoma, CM, psoriasis
CUTANEOUS MELANOMA, PSORIASIS
Our results confirmed genetically predicted psoriasis increases risk of CM. Enhanced early screening of cutaneous melanoma in patients with psoriasis may improve clinical burden. In addition, although the reverse MR estimation does not support the causal relationship from CM to psoriasis, it cannot be ruled out that CM has an effect on the incidence of psoriasis; further research is needed to confirm this.
