Sex-stratified meta-analysis of the association between rs16891982 and melanoma.

SNP	Gene	Chromosome / Risk allele	Group	n	# Studies	OR	95% CI	P-value	Study P-heterogeneity	Sex P-heterogeneity
rs16891982	SLC45A2	5 / G	Female	10,160	3	2.37	(1.69 - 3.31)	4.67E-07	0.45	0.02
			Male	5,789	2	5.50	(2.94 - 10.28)	9.53E-08	0.34

Bold p-values are statistically significant for replication at a Bonferron-corrected threshold of 0.05/8=0.006. SNP rs16891982 was not available in HPFS (male only) or NHS (female only).
