Xiong J, Wu Y, Chen D, Zhang Z, Liu Y, Luo J, Xu H. MAFLD with central obesity is associated with increased risk of colorectal adenoma and high-risk adenoma. BMC Gastroenterol 2024; 24:138. [PMID: 38649845 PMCID: PMC11034043 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-024-03220-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the risk factors associated with colorectal adenoma and to investigate the associations of metabolism-related fatty liver disease (MAFLD) with obesity, colorectal adenoma and high-risk adenoma. METHODS A total of 1395 subjects were enrolled and divided into a colorectal adenoma group (593 subjects) and a control group (802 subjects) according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The characteristics of patients in the colorectal adenoma group and the control group were compared by the chi-square test. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were used to analyze independent risk factors and associations with different MAFLD subtypes. Colorectal adenoma characteristics and the proportion of patients with high-risk colorectal adenoma were also compared. RESULTS High-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) was significantly lower in patients in the colorectal adenoma group than in those in the control group (P < 0.001). Logistic regression analysis revealed that age, obesity status, central obesity status, hypertension status, diabetes status, fatty liver status, smoking history, BMI, waist circumference, triglyceride level, HDL-C level, fasting blood glucose level and degree of hepatic steatosis were all independent risk factors for colorectal adenoma. Notably, MAFLD was associated with a significantly increased risk of colorectal adenoma in patients with central obesity (P < 0.001). In addition, obesity, central obesity, diabetes, fatty liver and degree of hepatic steatosis were all shown to be independent risk factors for high-risk colorectal adenoma. In addition, a greater proportion of MAFLD patients with central obesity than those without central obesity had high-risk colorectal adenoma. CONCLUSION MAFLD and central obesity are independently associated with the development of colorectal adenoma. MAFLD with central obesity is associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenoma and high-risk adenoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE Obesity is known to be associated with colorectal adenoma (CRA) and colorectal cancer (CRC); yet colonoscopy is not considered an essential preoperative evaluation before bariatric/metabolic surgery. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical significance of preoperative colonoscopy for obese Japanese patients. METHODS The subjects of this retrospective study were 114 patients who underwent screening colonoscopy before bariatric/metabolic surgery. Multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate the independent predictors of CRA/CRC among the characteristics identified as significant or nearly significant by univariate analyses. RESULTS Colonoscopy revealed abnormal findings indicating the need for biopsy or polypectomy in 20 of the 114 patients (17.5%), and CRA was diagnosed in 13 patients (11.4%). Three patients (2.6%), who were all ≥ 56 years old, had a CRA ≥ 10 mm in diameter. The multivariate analysis showed that older age and male sex were significant predictors of CRA/CRC, which was identified in 46.2% of the male patients aged ≥ 46 years. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that older age and male sex may be risk factors for CRA/CRC in obese Japanese candidates for bariatric/metabolic surgery; thus, preoperative colonoscopy should be considered for these high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We performed a post hoc secondary analysis for the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of ready-to-drink sodium picosulfate, magnesium oxide, and citric acid (SPMC oral solution) bowel preparation. METHODS A phase III, randomized, assessor-blinded, multicenter, noninferiority study was conducted comparing split-dose, low-volume SPMC oral solution with a powder formulation for oral solution. A post hoc secondary analysis assessed efficacy, safety, and tolerability of SPMC oral solution stratified by BMI. BMI was classified by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention definitions (underweight and normal weight: BMI < 25 kg/m2; overweight: BMI 25-29.9 kg/m2; class I obesity: BMI 30-34.9 kg/m2; class II obesity: BMI 35-39.9 kg/m2; class III/severe obesity: BMI ⩾40 kg/m2). Prespecified primary efficacy endpoint ('responders') was the proportion of participants with 'excellent' or 'good' ratings on a modified Aronchick Scale (AS). Secondary efficacy outcomes were the quality of cleansing of the right colon as assessed by the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS); as well as selected findings from the Mayo Clinic Bowel Prep Tolerability Questionnaire. Safety assessments included adverse events (AEs) and laboratory evaluations. RESULTS Between 82.8% and 92.5% of participants in any BMI group were responders by AS, and between 91.3% and 100% were responders by BBPS in the right colon. Efficacy was consistent across BMI groups, with no clear trends. Greater than 83% of participants in any BMI group found the preparation 'easy' or 'acceptable' to ingest, and the majority (>58%) rated SPMC oral solution as 'better' than a prior bowel preparation. In all BMI groups, safety data were similar to the overall cohort. Commonly reported, drug-related, treatment-emergent AEs were, by ascending BMI group, nausea (1.1%, 5.3%, 1.0%, 5.7%, and 0%) and headache (1.1%, 4.1%, 1.0%, 5.7%, and 0%). CONCLUSIONS Ready-to-drink SPMC oral solution had consistent, good quality colon cleansing, and favorable tolerability among participants of all BMI groups.

Abstract
Background & Objective: Most colorectal cancers (CRCs) arise from adenomatous polyps, and clinical management of this type of polyp is highly dependent on the reliability and validity of the pathological diagnosis. The aim of this study was to examine the interobserver agreement of five pathologists in assessing dysplasia in adenomatous polyps. Methods: In this study, a total of 146 adenomatous polyps of patients undergoing colonoscopy were selected from hospitals of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran between 2017 and 2018. Five pathologists independently classified adenomatous polyps according to histologic type, nuclear pseudostratification, mitotic activity, nuclear polarity, nuclear pleomorphism, nuclear shape, nucleolus, chromatin pattern, cytology grade, architectural features, dysplasia, and final diagnosis. The overall kappa statistic (k) was used to assess agreement among pathologists. Results: The mean age of the patients was 62.06 ± 13.06 (mean ± SD) with a male-to-female ratio of 2.2:1. The most common site of resection was the sigmoid colon (28.1%). The highest agreement was found for dysplasia grade (k=0.415) and histologic type (k=0.401), whereas the lowest agreement was found for mitotic activity (k=0.185), nuclear shape (k=0.187), and nucleolus (k=0.196). Conclusion: Our findings indicate that agreement among pathologists in assessing dysplasia in adenomatous polyps is within fair to moderate levels of agreement. Therefore, there is a vital need to better clarify the current diagnostic criteria.

Abstract
To investigate sex differences in the associations among metabolic syndrome, obesity, adipose tissue-related biomarkers, and colorectal adenomatous polyps, a cross-sectional, multicenter study was conducted on 489 consecutive individuals who underwent their first colonoscopy at 3 hospitals. Plasma concentrations of adiponectin and leptin, as well as homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance were also evaluated. The presence and number of adenomatous polyps, including advanced adenoma, were higher in men than in women. Metabolic syndrome was a risk factor for adenomatous polyps in both sexes. Large waist circumference was an independent risk factor for adenomatous polyps in men, and high BMI and large waist circumference were risk factors for adenomatous polyps in women. Interestingly, low BMI was associated with large adenomatous polyps (≥10 mm) and advanced adenoma, and waist-hip ratio was involved in proximal adenomatous polyp development only in women. In contrast, the highest quartile of leptin concentration had a 3.67-fold increased adenomatous polyp risk compared with the lowest quartile only in men. These results indicate that regarding colorectal pathogenesis, sex differences were identified in obesity but not in metabolic syndrome. Visceral obesity and a high serum leptin level may be risk factors for colorectal adenomatous polyp development in Japanese men.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of BMI on colonic neoplasia in average-risk patients aged between 40 and 59 years, analyzed by sex. METHODS A total of 4443 patients aged between 40 and 59 years undergoing a first-time screening or average-risk colonoscopy were included in this study. Data on demographics, smoking, and BMI were collected and correlated to the presence of adenomas and advanced adenomas. RESULTS We evaluated 1197 colonoscopies in patients aged between 40 and 49 years, and 3246 in those aged between 50 and 59 years. Among men between 40 and 49 years, increasing BMI [odds ratio (OR)=1.05, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.00-1.09] and BMI of at least 27 (OR=1.95, 95% CI: 1.15-3.29) were predictors of adenomas. Younger men with a BMI of at least 27 were more likely to have proximal adenomas (OR=2.23, 95% CI: 1.14-4.37) but not advanced adenomas. There was no relation between BMI and adenomas in younger women. Among women aged between 50 and 59 years, increasing BMI (OR=1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.05) and a BMI of at least 24 (OR=1.43, 95% CI: 1.06-2.94) was found to be correlated with adenomas, and increasing BMI was also found to be associated with proximal adenomas (OR=1.67, 95% CI: 1.13-2.45). Among men aged between 50 and 59 years, there was no relation between BMI and adenomas, but there was a positive correlation for advanced adenomas (OR=1.05, 95% CI: 1.002-1.09). Among women aged between 50 and 59 years, BMI was not predictive of advanced adenomas. CONCLUSION The association between BMI and adenoma differs by age and sex. If BMI is utilized to refine screening practices for colorectal cancer, its influence on sex and age should be taken into account.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Operator fatigue may negatively influence adenoma detection (AD) during screening colonoscopy. OBJECTIVE To better characterize factors affecting AD, including the number of hours worked, and the number and type of procedures performed before an index screening colonoscopy. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving individuals undergoing a screening colonoscopy at a major tertiary care hospital in Montreal, Quebec. Individuals were identified using an endoscopic reporting database; AD was identified by an electronic chart review. A hierarchical logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the association between patient- and endoscopist-related variables and AD. RESULTS A total of 430 consecutive colonoscopies performed by 10 gastroenterologists and two surgeons were included. Patient mean (± SD) age was 63.4±10.9 years, 56.3% were males, 27.7% had undergone a previous colonoscopy and the cecal intubation rate was 95.7%. The overall AD rate was 25.7%. Age was associated with AD (OR 1.06 [95% CI 1.03 to 1.08]), while female sex (OR 0.44 [95% CI 0.25 to 0.75]), an indication for average-risk screening (OR 0.47 [95% CI 0.27 to 0.80]) and an increase in the number of hours during which endoscopies were performed before the index colonoscopy (OR 0.87 [95% CI 0.76 to 0.99]) were associated with lower AD rates. On exploratory univariable analysis, a threshold of 3 h of endoscopy time performed before the index colonoscopy was associated with decreased AD. CONCLUSION The number of hours devoted to endoscopies before the index colonoscopy was inversely associated with AD rate, with decreased performance possibly as early as within 3 h. This metric should be confirmed in future studies and considered when optimizing scheduling practices.

OBJECTIVE We studied a racially diverse population and the relationship with colorectal adenomas (CA) further looking for risks related to BMI and metabolic factors. DESIGNS Seven hundred seventy-nine patients who underwent screening colonoscopies between 2007 and 2009 meeting exclusion criteria were included. To evaluate the association between race, BMI, and other metabolic factors with having one or more CA detected at colonoscopy, adjusted odds ratios and 95 % CI were estimated using unconditional logistic regression models. OUTCOMES CA were detected in 167 out of 779 (21.4 %) patients. Compared to Whites, Hispanics were less likely to have one or more adenomas detected during a screening colonoscopy (OR = 0.52, 95 % CI, 0.31-0.88; p = 0.01). There was no significant statistical difference between Blacks and Whites, or other races and Whites. There was an association between the presence of CA and smoking (OR = 1.57, 95 % CI, 1.02-2.43; p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Our results showed that Hispanics were less likely to have an adenoma detected during a screening colonoscopy than Whites. No statistical significant difference was found between patients with metabolic factors and the presence of colorectal adenoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the association between obesity and the risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps. DESIGN AND METHODS The design of this study is a cross-sectional study. A total of 1,574 participants (818 males and 756 females), who had undergone colonoscopy for health examinations at the National Cancer Center hospital in South Korea from February to September 2009, were included in the analysis. RESULTS The prevalence of colorectal adenomatous polyps was 39.5% in males and 22.6% in females. In multiple logistic regression analysis, obesity (odds ratio [OR] = 1.69, 95% CI = 1.16-2.48) and abdominal obesity (OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.13-2.23) were significantly associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps in males, but not in females. In the subgroup analyses by age, obesity (OR = 2.27, 95% CI = 1.32-3.89), and abdominal obesity (OR = 1.76, 95% CI = 1.12-2.76) significantly increased a risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps in males aged <50 years, but not in males aged ≥50 years. However, interaction terms were not significant between obesity and gender (P = 0.397) and between obesity and age (P = 0.531) in the overall analyses. CONCLUSION Our findings should be explored in further research.

Abstract
Background. Colorectal cancer mostly arises from the polyps of colon. The aim of our study was to examine the association of body mass index (BMI) and serum lipids with the colorectal polyps in old Chinese people. Methods. The risk of developing colorectal polyps was studied in 244 subjects (212 men and 32 women, 74.63 ± 11.63 years old) who underwent colonoscopy for the first time from January 2008 to July 2012 at the Navy General Hospital, Beijing, China. According to the results of colonoscopy, all the subjects were divided into 112 normal control, 38 right colorectal polyps, 53 left colorectal polyps, and 41 both right and left colorectal polyps groups. The total plasma cholesterol, plasma triglyceride, plasma creatinine concentration, blood urinary nitrogen, and fasting glucose were determined using a multichannel analyzer. Results. There were significant differences among normal control, right colorectal polyps, left colorectal polyps, and both right and left polyps groups, which were the BMI, total cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, and urinary nitrogen. In binary logistic regression analysis, there were two risk factors associated with the occurrence of colorectal polyps, which included BMI and systolic blood pressure. Conclusions. Colorectal polyps were significantly associated with increased BMI, total cholesterol, and triglycerides levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥30) or overweight (25 ≤ BMI ≤29.9) has been reported to be a risk factor for colorectal adenoma (CRA). However, this association remains controversial. The aim of this study was to determine the association between overweight or obesity and CRA. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted using English language studies from EMBASE and MEDLINE. Appropriate observational studies were selected from 1966 through September 2011. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) were extracted from each study. RESULTS One hundred and seventy full-text articles were reviewed after retrieving 1199 initial search results. Five studies in which BMI was treated as continuous variable, three studies in which BMI was dichotomized using a cutoff value of 25, three studies in which BMI was categorized into three groups using values of 22 and 25, and eight studies in which BMI was categorized into three groups using values of 25 and 30 were selected. Regarding risk for CRA, pooled OR [95% CI] of one increment increase in BMI was 1.02 [0.99-1.03] (random effects model [REM]), while that of BMI ≥ 25 was 1.27 [1.15-1.4] (Fixed effects model). Pooled ORs [95% CI] of BMI ≥ 22 and BMI ≥ 25 was 1.42 [0.69-2.9] [REM] and 1.81 [0.36-9.1] [REM], respectively. Pooled ORs [95% CI] of BMI ≥ 25 and BMI ≥ 30 was 1.16 [0.98-1.38] [REM] and 1.47 [1.18-1.83] [REM], respectively. CONCLUSION Obesity and overweight are significant risk factors for CRA. However, there are no data showing linear relationship between increasing BMI and CRA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association between increasing body weight and colorectal adenoma prevalence has been suggested to follow a similar pattern to excess weight and colorectal cancer, although the magnitude of this relationship has not been validated. The objective of this study was to quantify the association and dose-response relationship between body mass index (BMI) and colorectal adenoma prevalence in clinical trials. METHODS We systematically reviewed 23 studies (168,201 participants), which compared the prevalence of colorectal adenomas according to World Health Organization BMI categories. We assessed the effects of each BMI category on colorectal adenomas where odds ratio (OR) was used as a surrogate for effect size, and applied multivariate meta-analysis as a method of sensitivity analysis to evaluate the robustness of our findings and to analyze adenoma prevalence by multiple BMI categories simultaneously to assess for a dose-response relationship. Heterogeneity and publication bias were assessed. RESULTS Subjects with a BMI of ≥25 had a significantly higher prevalence of colorectal adenomas (OR=1.24 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.16-1.33), P<0.01) when compared with those with BMI<25. Multivariate meta-analysis also confirmed a positive association between higher BMI categories and the prevalence of colorectal adenoma (BMI: 25-30 vs. BMI<25; OR=1.21 (95% CI: 1.07-1.38), P<0.01; BMI≥30 vs. BMI<25; OR=1.32 (95% CI: 1.18-1.48), P<0.01) and revealed a dose-response relationship. CONCLUSIONS The positive association between obesity and colorectal adenoma prevalence demonstrates an underlying dose-response relationship according to BMI. Colorectal centers may benefit from the timely screening of obese patients for colorectal adenomas in addition to clarifying the biological role of adiposity on colorectal tumor initiation and progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS There have been inconsistent results published about the relationship between excess body weight, expressed as increased body mass index (BMI), and risk of colorectal adenoma (CRA). We conducted a meta-analysis to explore this relationship. We focused on whether the relationship varied based on the sex of the study subjects, study design, features of the polyps, or potential confounders, including alcohol use, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use, smoking, and exercise. METHODS We identified studies by performing a literature search of Medline, EMBASE, and ISI Web of Science through July 31, 2011, and by searching the reference lists of pertinent articles. We analyzed 36 independent studies, which included 29,860 incident cases of CRA. Summary relative risks with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with a random-effects model. Between-study heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q statistic and I(2) analyses. RESULTS Overall, a 5-unit increase in BMI (calculated as kg/m(2)) increased the risk for CRA (summary relative risk = 1.19; 95% CI: 1.13-1.26), although there was a high level of heterogeneity among studies (P(heterogeneity) < .001; I(2) = 76.8%). Subgroup analyses revealed that the increased risk of CRA in obese individuals was independent of race, geographic location, study design, sex, adenoma progression, and confounders. The association between increased BMI and risk for CRA was stronger for colon than rectal adenoma. CONCLUSIONS Based on a meta-analysis, increased BMI increases the risk for colon but not rectal adenoma. Unlike colorectal cancer, there is no sex difference in the relationship between increased BMI and risk of CRA.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate relationships between colorectal adenoma incidence, metabolic syndrome (MS) components and lifestyle factors.
METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using data from individuals who had multiple sigmoidoscopies for colon cancer at the Health Promotion Center of Ulsan University Hospital in Korea from 1998 to 2007.
RESULTS: By multivariate analysis, the incidence of distal colon adenoma was increased by more than 1.76 times in individuals with at least one component of MS compared to those without a component of MS. After adjustment for age, gender, smoking, drinking, and physical exercise, only high body mass index (BMI) was significantly associated with the incidence of distal colon adenoma (Hazard ratio 1.66, 95% confidence interval 1.05-2.62).
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that high BMI may increase the risk of colorectal adenoma in Korean adults.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cause of cancer in women. Screening for CRC increases early detection of cancer and premalignant polyps and decreases morbidity from this disease. However, adherence to the screening guidelines continues to remain inadequate both at the physician and patient levels. Several factors are of special importance to women. Presence of prior gynecological malignancies may increase the risk of CRC in women. Furthermore, new studies have shown other factors such as obesity and smoking to increase the risk of CRC in women. This article highlights issues unique to women with regards to CRC and outlines special considerations for determining screening intervals in women, identifies factors that make screening more difficult in women, and reviews studies that identify preventative strategies which, together with screening, may reduce the burden of CRC.

Abstract
Excess body weight (EBW) is an independent risk factor for many human malignancies, including cancers throughout the gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary tract from the esophagus to the colorectum. The relative risk of gastrointestinal cancer in obese individuals is approximately 1.5-2.0 times that for normal weight individuals, with organ-specific and gender-specific differences for specific cancers. The association between EBW and risk of premalignant stages of gastrointestinal carcinogenesis, such as colorectal adenoma and Barrett esophagus, is similar, implying a role for EBW during the early stages of carcinogenesis that could be relevant to preventative strategies. EBW also impacts negatively on gastrointestinal cancer outcomes. The mechanistic basis of the association between EBW and carcinogenesis remains incompletely understood. Postulated mechanisms include increased insulin and insulin-like growth factor signaling and chronic inflammation (both linked to the metabolic syndrome), as well as signaling via adipokines, such as leptin. The role of obesity-related changes in the intestinal microbiome in gastrointestinal carcinogenesis deserves further attention. Whether weight loss leads to reduced future gastrointestinal and liver cancer risk has yet to be fully explored. There is some support for the idea that weight loss negatively regulates colorectal carcinogenesis. In addition, data suggest a reduction in risk of several cancers in the first 10 years after bariatric surgery.
