Risk Factors Related To Advanced Colorectal Neoplasia In Colorectal Cancer Screening – Interim Results Of Multicentric Prospective Study
Aims The lifetime risk of developing colorectal cancer in average risk population is 4.4 %. The prevalence of advanced colorectal neoplasia in the screening population shows great diversity around 3-12 % depending on multiple risk factors. The aim of the study was to determine the risk factors associated with the incidence of advanced colorectal neoplasia in the screening population.
Methods The prospective multicentric study included asymptomatic individuals aged 45-75 years who underwent preventive colonoscopy in 2012–2015. Data were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The Fisher’s exact test was used to compare the risk factors with the occurrence of advanced colorectal neoplasia.
Results 1,108 men (56.3 %) and 859 women (43.7 %) were included (average age 60 years). The total number of advanced colorectal neoplasia was 11.8 % (233 individuals). The potential risk factors associated with advanced colorectal neoplasia were age (p < 0.001), male gender (p = 0.001), smoking (p < 0.001), serum concentrations of triglycerides (p = 0.029; especially concentrations > 2 mmol/l) and low vitamin D (p = 0.033). These are preliminary results which will be specified in the following more detailed data analysis using logistic regression.
Conclusions The strongest potential risk factors associated with advanced colorectal neoplasia were age, gender and smoking. In addition to these factors, serum triglyceride levels and low vitamin D were significantly associated with advanced colorectal neoplasia. To individuals with these risk factors should be addressed increased attention and considered primary screening colonoscopy.
