Different modifiable risk factors for the development of non-advanced adenoma, advanced adenomatous lesion, and sessile serrated lesions, on screening colonoscopy. Sci Rep 2024; 14:16865. [PMID: 39043859 PMCID: PMC11266553 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67822-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The development of premalignant colorectal polyps is significantly influenced by various lifestyle and modifiable risk factors. In our study, we used a large cohort of 9025 patients, who underwent screening colonoscopies at a university hospital, to assess the risk factors associated with the development of three different colorectal cancer precursor lesions: non-advanced adenomas (NAs), advanced adenomatous lesions (ADLs), and sessile serrated lesions (SSLs). Among the participants, 3641 had NAs, 836 had ADLs, and 533 had SSLs. We identified obesity, current smoking, and appendicular skeletal muscle mass as modifiable lifestyle risk factors that increase the development of NAs and ADLs (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, we found a positive correlation between the degree of obesity and an increased risk of developing NAs and ADLs (all P for trend < 0.001), while non-smoking was associated with a decreased risk (P for trend < 0.001 and 0.003, respectively). Smoking was the only modifiable risk factor for developing SSLs (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.58; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.20-2.07), and the risk was even higher in patients with metabolic syndrome (aOR 1.71; 95% CI 1.05-2.77). Addressing modifiable lifestyle factors such as smoking and obesity could play an important role in reducing the risk of both non-advanced and advanced adenomatous lesions. Smoking cessation is especially important as it is a significant modifiable risk factor for sessile serrated lesions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the clinical implications of sarcopenia for patients with rectal cancer according to cancer progression. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA The negative impact of body composition on long-term outcome has been demonstrated for various malignancies. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 708 patients with rectal cancer who underwent curative resection at our institution between 2003 and 2020. Factors contributing to long-term outcomes and the incidence of secondary cancer (ISC) were analyzed. Psoas muscle mass index (PMI) was assessed using preoperative computed tomography. Sarcopenia was defined using the PMI cut-off values for Asian adults (6.36 cm2/m2 for males and 3.92 cm2/m2 for females). RESULTS Sarcopenia was identified in 306 patients (43.2%). Sarcopenia was associated with advanced age, low body mass index, smoking history, and advanced T-stage. Multivariate analysis showed sarcopenia was an independent poor prognostic factor for OS (HR 1.71; P = .0102) and cancer-specific survival (HR 1.64; P = .0490). Patients with sarcopenia had significantly higher mortality due to cancer-related death in stages III and IV, whereas non-rectal cancer-related death, including secondary cancer, was markedly increased in stage 0-II sarcopenic rectal patients. Five-year cumulative ISC in patients with and without sarcopenia was 11.8% and 5.9%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that sarcopenia was an independent predictive factor for ISC (HR 2.05; P = .0063). CONCLUSIONS Sarcopenia helps predict survival outcomes and cause of death according to cancer stage for patients with middle/lower rectal cancer who underwent radical surgery. Furthermore, sarcopenia increased the development of secondary cancer in those patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Although several studies have shown that sarcopenia is associated with poor outcomes in colorectal cancer patients, the impact of sarcopenia on the development of colorectal neoplasia remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence and association of colorectal neoplasia, especially advanced colorectal neoplasia, in adults with sarcopenia. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data for 10,676 adults who underwent firsttime colonoscopy and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) on the same day in a health screening program at a single center. Sarcopenia was diagnosed using established BIA-based criteria as adjusted appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) divided by body mass index (BMI) (ASM/BMI), height (ASM/height2), or weight (ASM/weight). Prevalence of overall and advanced colorectal neoplasia and their association with sarcopenia, as established by the aforementioned diagnostic criteria, were evaluated. RESULTS Among 10,676 subjects, 583 were diagnosed with sarcopenia using ASM/ BMI. Subjects with sarcopenia had a higher prevalence of colorectal neoplasia than those without. In the multivariate analysis after adjusting for confounding factors, sarcopenia was an independent risk factor for any colorectal neoplasia (odds ratio [OR], 1.31; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.09 to 1.56) and advanced colorectal neoplasia (OR, 1.97; 95% CI, 1.27 to 3.06). The association between sarcopenia and advanced colorectal neoplasia remained significant for all sarcopenia measures including ASM/height2 (OR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.24 to 3.85) and ASM/weight (OR, 2.41; 95% CI, 1.54 to 3.77). CONCLUSION Prevalence of overall and advanced colorectal neoplasia was higher in subjects with sarcopenia than in those without. Sarcopenia was a significant risk factor for colorectal neoplasia, especially for advanced colorectal neoplasia.

Abstract
Introduction Nutritional status assessment is an important part of preoperative patient evaluation, but the standard anthropometric parameters do not appear to be adequate. Aim To determine the changes in the values of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) parameters in patients 3 months after undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC). Material and methods BIA and nutritional status assessment parameters were determined in 80 patients prior to undergoing surgery for CRC. The results 3 months after surgery for 64 of those patients were then compared with their initial assessments. Results According to standard WHO ranges, 54% of the patients were diagnosed as being overweight and 29% as obese. The percentage of patients categorized as obese amounted to 56% when this was defined as high fat mass. Moderate sarcopaenia, defined as a low skeletal muscle index (SMI) or low percentage of skeletal muscle mass, was diagnosed in 21% and 29% of patients, respectively. Patients with postoperative weakness that made it impossible for them to attend the control visit had a lower preoperative skeletal muscle mass (p = 0.01) and SMI value (p = 0.001). Parameters of BIA did not discriminate patients with postoperative complications, which occurred in 23% of individuals enrolled. Conclusions A significant proportion of the patients undergoing surgery for CRC were overweight or obese, which could mask the sarcopaenia that presented in 21–29% of them. Sarcopaenia was the only parameter predictive of a postoperative decrease in performance status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Sarcopenia has been suggested to be associated with chronic inflammation and insulin resistance. This study aimed to evaluate whether low muscle mass is associated with the incidence and recurrence of advanced colorectal adenoma. METHODS We conducted a cohort study including 14 701 participants who underwent first-time screening colonoscopy between 2003 and 2012 and follow-up colonoscopy until 2017. Skeletal muscle mass was measured using a bioelectrical impedance analyzer and divided by body weight to calculate the skeletal muscle mass index (SMI). RESULTS During a median 47 (interquartile range, 35-58) months of follow-up, overall and advanced adenoma developed in 2988 (20.3%) and 207 (1.41%) participants, respectively. In multivariate analysis using models adjusted for baseline adenoma risk, lifestyle factors, markers for insulin resistance and chronic inflammation, and metabolic syndrome, decreasing SMI quartiles were associated with increased risk of occurrence of advanced adenoma and overall adenoma. The adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) comparing SMI quartiles 3, 2, and 1 to quartile 4 were 1.57 (1.03-2.41), 1.22 (0.78-1.92), and 1.77 (1.13-2.76), respectively, for advanced adenoma (P for trend = 0.049) and 1.05 (0.95-1.17), 1.09 (0.98-1.21), and 1.26 (1.13-1.41), respectively, for overall adenoma (P for trend < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort with long-term colonoscopy follow-up, low relative muscle mass was associated with increased risk of occurrence of advanced adenoma and overall adenoma at follow-up colonoscopy, independent of metabolic and inflammatory markers. Timely and thorough surveillance colonoscopy may be emphasized in such populations.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to evaluate an association between colorectal neoplasm (CRN) and skeletal muscle mass using three widely accepted skeletal muscle mass indices (SMIs) in a large population at average risk. METHOD We performed a cross-sectional study using a screening colonoscopy database of 33 958 asymptomatic subjects aged 40-75 years. Appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) was measured using a bioelectrical impedance analyser. ASM adjusted for height squared (ASM/ht2 ), weight (ASM/wt) and body mass index (ASM/BMI) were used as indices for muscle mass. Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between SMIs and CRN. RESULTS In a multivariable-adjusted model, the risk of an advanced CRN increased linearly with decreasing quartiles for all three SMIs. The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for advanced CRN in quartiles 1, 2 and 3 of ASM/wt compared with that in quartile 4 were 1.279, 1.196 and 1.179, respectively (Ptrend = 0.017); for ASM/BMI, ORs were 1.307, 1.144 and 1.091, respectively (Ptrend = 0.002); and for ASM/ht2 , ORs were 1.342, 1.169 and 1.062, respectively (Ptrend = 0.002). The risk of distally located advanced CRN was higher in quartile 1 than in quartile 4 for all three SMIs (ASM/wt, OR = 1.356; ASM/BMI, OR = 1.383; ASM/ht2 , OR = 1.430). CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that low skeletal muscle mass was consistently associated with the presence of advanced CRN in a population at average risk regardless of the operational definition of the SMI, and it was particularly associated with distal advanced CRN.

Abstract
Background Obesity is known as an important risk factor for colorectal adenoma. However, for the elderly with changes in body composition, reduced muscle, and increased fat, the body mass index (BMI), one of the most commonly used indicators of obesity, is limited in predicting a link to colorectal cancer. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between colorectal adenoma and grip strength that can predict muscle reduction in the elderly. Methods This study included 262 participants aged ≥65 years who underwent medical examination between June 2015 and August 2018. The control group comprised participants with normal findings or hyperplasia and other benign lesions, except adenoma on colonoscopy, whereas the adenoma group consisted of participants with more than one adenoma. Grip strength was alternately measured twice for each hand using a hydraulic dynamometer. Results The grip strength was statistically lower in the adenoma group than in the control group among women (P=0.042). For both sexes, grip strength was significantly lower in participants with ≥5 adenomas than in those with <5 adenomas (P=0.021, P=0.007). Similarly, men with large adenomas (≥7 mm) exhibited significantly lower grip strength than did those with small adenomas (<7 mm) (P=0.004). Even after correction for age, BMI, smoking status, alcohol consumption, exercise, insulin resistance, hypertension, and diabetes, the negative correlation between grip strength and number of adenomas among men and women remained (P=0.034, P=0.019). Conclusions A significant relationship between hand grip strength and number of colorectal adenomas was noted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Sarcopenia is a pathological condition characterized by the progressive loss of muscle mass and increased amount of visceral fat. Recent evidence has revealed that sarcopenia is associated with certain diseases. However, the impact of sarcopenia on colorectal neoplasia has not been documented clearly. We studied the association between sarcopenia and advanced colorectal neoplasia in a large screening population. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 14 024 asymptomatic adults who underwent first-time screening colonoscopy. Sarcopenia (class II) was defined as an appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM)/bodyweight (%) value more than two standard deviations below the mean for healthy young adults. ASM was estimated using bioelectrical impedance analysis. RESULTS In a multivariable model adjusted for age, sex, obesity (body mass index ≥ 25), smoking status, alcohol intake, regular exercise, and family history of colorectal cancer, the odds ratio (OR) for advanced colorectal neoplasia on comparing participants with sarcopenia (class II) to those without sarcopenia (class I + II) was 1.52 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23-1.86). Further adjustment for metabolic parameters attenuated this association, but the association was still significant (OR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.07-1.68). Furthermore, the multivariable (traditional risk factors)-adjusted OR associated with a 1% decrease on the introduction of ASM/weight% as a continuous variable in regression models was 1.04 (95% CI, 1.01-1.07) for advanced colorectal neoplasia. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that sarcopenia is significantly and progressively associated with the risk of advanced colorectal neoplasia. This association might be explained by metabolic factors that could be potential mediators of the effect of sarcopenia.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is an accepted technique to estimate low muscle mass for sarcopenia diagnosis. However, muscularity assessment from BIA relies on prediction equations, estimating different compartments according to the calibration method. Low muscle mass can be defined using different approaches. RECENT FINDINGS There is a lack of standardization on how low muscularity is defined in the context of sarcopenia. Recent studies have shown discrepant results for the estimation of low muscle mass when different prediction equations are used in the same BIA device. Different sarcopenia prevalence rates are observed if different definitions are used to identify low muscle mass. Most of the studies using BIA for diagnosing sarcopenia use the incorrect combination of specific population cut-off or a different device from the original equation. SUMMARY The lack of standardization of BIA use for assessing muscularity results in a wide range of sarcopenia prevalence rates among studies, even when conducted in the same population. As BIA equations and cut-off values are population and device-specific, results should be interpreted with caution when data from different devices are applied in equations or using cut-off values from a different population.

PGC-1α as a Biomarker of Physical Activity-Protective Effect on Colorectal Cancer. Cancer Prev Res (Phila) 2018; 11:523-534.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is a significant public health concern. As a multistage and multifactorial disease, environmental and genetic factors interact at each stage of the process, and an individual's lifestyle also plays a relevant role. We set out to review the scientific evidence to study the need to investigate the role of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PGC-1α) gene as a biomarker of the physical activity's (PA) effect on colorectal cancer. PA is a protective factor against colorectal cancer and usually increases the expression of PGC-1α This gene has pleiotropic roles and is the main regulator of mitochondrial functions. The development of colorectal cancer has been associated with mitochondrial dysfunction; in addition, alterations in this organelle are associated with colorectal cancer risk factors, such as obesity, decreased muscle mass, and the aging process. These are affected by PA acting, among other aspects, on insulin sensitivity and oxygen reactive species/redox balance. Therefore, this gene demands special attention in the understanding of its operation in the consensual protective effect of PA in colorectal cancer. A significant amount of indirect evidence points to PGC-1α as a potential biomarker in the PA-protective effect on colorectal cancer. The article focuses on the possible involvement of PGC-1α in the protective role that physical activity has on colorectal cancer. This is an important topic both in relation to advances in prevention of the development of this widespread disease and in its therapeutic treatment. We hope to generate an initial hypothesis for future studies associated with physical activity-related mechanisms that may be involved in the development or prevention of colorectal cancer. PGC-1α is highlighted because it is the main regulator of mitochondrial functions. This organelle, on one hand, is positively stimulated by physical activity; on the other hand, its dysfunction or reduction increases the probability of developing colorectal cancer. Therefore, we consider the compilation of existing information about the possible ways to understand the mechanisms of this gene to be highly relevant. This study is based on evidence of PGC-1α and physical activity, on PGC-1α and colorectal cancer, on colorectal cancer and physical activity/inactivity, and the absence of studies that have sought to relate all of these variables.
