Mortality trends suggest that increases in Connecticut incidence for cutaneous melanoma (CM) equal or under estimate increases for the entire country. One-sixth of CM in Connecticut occurs under age 35. In the 1955 birth cohort, modeled incidence rates per 100,000 age-adjusted to the 1960 US population are 38.2 in males and 28.9 in females. These estimated rates for CM rival those for colon cancer (now the third most common malignancy in the United States) and have special implications for young adults.
死亡率趋势表明，康涅狄格州皮肤黑色素瘤（CM）发病率的增长等于或低于全国的增长水平。康涅狄格州六分之一的CM病例发生在35岁以下。在1955年出生队列中，根据1960年美国人口进行年龄调整后，每10万人的建模发病率男性为38.2，女性为28.9。这些CM的估计发病率与结肠癌（现在是美国第三大最常见的恶性肿瘤）的发病率相当，对年轻人有特殊影响。
