Additional major causes included other skin cancers (primarily keratinocyte carcinomas), infections of the skin, and skin ulcers (primarily decubitus ulcers).

Melanoma mortality generally increases as a power function of age within a birth cohort.

Thus the cross-sectional relationship of mortality versus age and the increase in mortality risk during most of the twentieth century followed a cohort pattern.

In a cohort study, the incidence of the study outcome can be measured directly in each group, and the relative risk can be measured directly as the ratio of the incidence between the two groups. Cohort studies often are quite expensive to conduct because they require following a large population over time and may be impossible if the outcome being studied is uncommon. Hence observational studies often use the case-control approach, where cases with the outcome being studied and appropriate controls are investigated to determine their past exposure to the risk factor.
