Derivation and validation of a nomogram incorporating modifiable lifestyle factors to predict development of colorectal adenomas after negative index colonoscopy. Sci Rep 2024; 14:11633. [PMID: 38773186 PMCID: PMC11109095 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-62348-w] [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: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024] Open
Abstract
This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify baseline patient characteristics involving modifiable lifestyle factors that are associated with the development of colorectal adenomas, and establish and validate a nomogram for risk predictions among high-risk populations with negative index colonoscopy. A total of 83,076 participants who underwent an index colonoscopy at the Tianjin Union Medical Center between 2004 and 2019 were collected. According to meticulous inclusion and exclusion criteria, 249 subjects were enrolled and categorized into the primary and validation cohorts. Based on the primary cohort, we utilized the LASSO-Cox regression and the univariate/multivariate Cox proportional hazards (Cox-PH) regression parallelly to select variables, and incorporated selected variables into two nomogram models established using the multivariate Cox-PH regression. Comparison of the Akaike information criterion and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the two models demonstrated that the nomogram model constituted by four covariates retained by the LASSO-Cox regression, including baseline age, body mass index, physical activity and family history of colorectal cancer (CRC) in first-degree relatives, performed better at predicting adenoma-free survival probabilities. Further validation including the concordance index, calibration plots, decision curve analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curves also revealed good predictive accuracy, discriminating ability, clinical utility and risk stratification capacity of the nomogram model. Our nomogram will assist high-risk individuals with negative index colonoscopy to prevent colorectal adenoma occurrence and CRC morbidity with improved cost-effectiveness.

World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:2050-2055. [PMID: 38680256 PMCID: PMC11045504 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v12.i12.2050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and lipid metabolism are related to the occurrence of colorectal polyps. Liver-controlled attenuation parameters (liver-CAPs) have been established to predict the prognosis of hepatic steatosis patients. AIM To explore the risk factors associated with colorectal polyps in patients with NAFLD by analyzing liver-CAPs and establishing a diagnostic model. METHODS Patients who were diagnosed with colorectal polyps in the Department of Gastroenterology of our hospital between June 2021 and April 2022 composed the case group, and those with no important abnormalities composed the control group. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to predict the diagnostic efficiency. Differences were considered statistically significant when P < 0.05. RESULTS The median triglyceride (TG) and liver-CAP in the case group were significantly greater than those in the control group (mmol/L, 1.74 vs 1.05; dB/m, 282 vs 254, P < 0.05). TG and liver-CAP were found to be independent risk factors for colorectal polyps, with ORs of 2.338 (95%CI: 1.154-4.733) and 1.019 (95%CI: 1.006-1.033), respectively (P < 0.05). And there was no difference in the diagnostic efficacy between liver-CAP and TG combined with liver-CAP (TG+CAP) (P > 0.05). When the liver-CAP was greater than 291 dB/m, colorectal polyps were more likely to occur. CONCLUSION The levels of TG and liver-CAP in patients with colorectal polyps are significantly greater than those patients without polyps. Liver-CAP alone can be used to diagnose NAFLD with colorectal polyps.

Jia Z, Wan X. Correlation and influencing factors analysis of colorectal polyps with Helicobacter pylori Infection and p-S6K1 expression. BMC Infect Dis 2023; 23:794. [PMID: 37964239 PMCID: PMC10644558 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-023-08791-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/16/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation between colorectal polyps (CRP) and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, and the correlation between CRP and the expression of phosphorylated ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p-S6K1). Besides, its related influencing factors were determined in the present study. METHODS A total of 191 subjects who underwent colonoscopy in our hospital from January 2020 to February 2022 were selected for this study. Among them, 141 patients were diagnosed with CRP, and the other 50 subjects were no significant colorectal abnormalities. 141 CRP patients were divided into H. pylori-positive group (n = 89) and H. pylori-negative group (n = 52) according to the results of the H. pylori test. The expression of p-S6K1 in CRP tissue was detected. The relationship between the p-S6K1 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of CRP patients was analyzed. The logistic analysis of factors influencing the occurrence of CRP was performed. RESULTS There were significant differences in pathological type, site of disease, the number and size of polyps between the H. pylori negative group and the H. pylori positive group (P < 0.001, P = 0.037, P = 0.042 and P = 0.039). The percentage of the p-S6K1 positive expression in polyp tissues was higher than that in normal tissue and parapolyp tissues (P < 0.001). The p-S6K1 negative group showed significant difference in the number and pathological type of polyps and the presence or absence of a pedicle as compared with the p-S6K1 positive group (P = 0.006, P < 0.001 and P = 0.012). Logistic multifactor analysis showed that BMI, H. pylori infection, smoking history, ApoB, Lp(a) and the p-S6K1 positive expression were all risk factors for the development of CRP (P = 0.025, P = 0.020, P = 0.010, P = 0.005, P = 0.043 and P < 0.001). CONCLUSION H. pylori infection was closely related to the pathological type, location, and the number and size of CRP. p-S6K1 was highly expressed in CRP, and was positively related to the number, the pathological type and pedicle of polyps. H. pylori infection and the positive p-S6K1 expression were independent risk factors for CRP. By exploring the association between H. pylori infection as well as p-S6K1 and CRP, it is hoped that it will help to formulate a more rigorous colorectal cancer screening program for H. pylori-positive individuals, and at the same time find a new direction for the prevention of CRP and colorectal cancer, and provide some help for future research.

Abstract
Screening, followed by colonoscopic polypectomy, has been widely performed in China. However, factors influencing age at onset of colorectal polyps and benefit-finding after polypectomy have been insufficiently studied or ignored. A total of 152 patients with colorectal polyps first detected in First Affiliated Hospital of Huzhou University from July to September 2022 were enrolled in this study. We selected 11 factors associated with the risk of colorectal polyps, including gender, body mass index, occupational stress, education level, income satisfaction, smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise frequency, diet, family history and polyp characteristics. Benefit-finding after polypectomy was obtained by follow-up for 142 of these patients. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that being overweight (i.e., body mass index ≥25 kg/m2), higher education level, lower exercise frequency, and refrigerated food preference were associated with early-onset colorectal polyps. Patients with a preference for pickled food and age ≥50 years at first colorectal polyp detection had lower benefit findings after colonoscopic polypectomy. Colorectal polyps may develop earlier in people who are overweight, well-educated, exercise less, and prefer refrigerated food. In addition, patients who prefer pickled food and age at onset ≥50 years have lower benefit-finding requiring more attention in future colonoscopy follow-ups.

Obesity and incidence of colorectal polyps: a case-controlled study. Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2023; 85:306-310.

Abstract
Previous essays have presented possible concordance between obesity and colorectal polyp development. However, neither for the hypothesis nor for the details general consensus exists. This study aimed to evaluate the association between higher BMI rather than the normal and colorectal polyp presentation and characteristics if any. Methods Eligible patients based on study criteria who were candidates for total colonoscopy examination enrolled in this case-controlled trial. Controls had normal colonoscopy reports. A positive colonoscopy for any kind of polyp was followed by a histopathological study. Demographic data also was registered, and patients were categorized according to the calculated BMI. Groups were matched by both gender and status of tobacco abuse. Finally, the outcomes of colonoscopy and histopathological studies were compared between groups. Results A total of 141 and 125 persons investigated, respectively, as patients and controls. Possible effects of gender, tobacco abuse, and cigarette smoking were declined by participants matching. Hence, we found no significant difference between groups regarding the latter variables (P>0.05). Colorectal polyps were found absolutely more in BMI>25 kg/m-2 rather than in lesser values (P<0.001). However, there was no obvious difference in the incidence of colorectal polyps between groups categorized as overweight and obese (P>0.05). Namely, even weighing over could be the risk for colorectal polyp development. Additionally, it was more expected to find neoplastic adenomatous polyp(s) with high-graded dysplasia in BMI>25 kg/m-2 (P<0.001). Conclusion Even little changes in BMI further than the normal values can independently increase the risk of developing dysplastic adenomatous colorectal polyp(s) significantly.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Given the limited effectiveness of the current Chinese colorectal cancer (CRC) screening procedure, adherence to colonoscopy remains low. We aim to develop and validate a scoring system based on individuals who were identified as having a high risk in initial CRC screening to achieve more efficient risk stratification and improve adherence to colonoscopy.
Methods
A total of 29,504 screening participants with positive High-Risk Factor Questionnaire (HRFQ) or faecal immunochemical test (FIT) who underwent colonoscopy in Tianjin from 2012–2020 were enrolled in this study. Binary regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between risk factors and advanced colorectal neoplasia. Internal validation was also used to assess the performance of the scoring system.
Results
Male sex, older age (age ≥ 50 years), high body mass index (BMI ≥ 28 kg/m2), current or past smoking and weekly alcohol intake were identified as risk factors for advanced colorectal neoplasm. The odds ratios (ORs) for significant variables were applied to construct the risk score ranging from 0–11: LR, low risk (score 0–3); MR, moderate risk (score 4–6); and HR, high risk (score 7–11). Compared with subjects with LR, those with MR and HR had ORs of 2.47 (95% confidence interval, 2.09–2.93) and 4.59 (95% confidence interval, 3.86–5.44), respectively. The scoring model showed an outstanding discriminatory capacity with a c-statistic of 0.64 (95% confidence interval, 0.63–0.65).
Conclusions
Our results showed that the established scoring system could identify very high-risk populations with colorectal neoplasia. Combining this risk score with current Chinese screening methods may improve the effectiveness of CRC screening and adherence to colonoscopy.

Dietary Xenobiotics Derived from Food Processing: Association with Fecal Mutagenicity and Gut Mucosal Damage. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14173482. [PMID: 36079735 PMCID: PMC9458229 DOI: 10.3390/nu14173482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2022] [Revised: 08/19/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Whereas the mechanisms underlying the association of toxic dietary xenobiotics and cancer risk are not well established, it is plausible that dietary pattern may affect the colon environment by enhancing or reducing exposure to mutagens. This work aimed to investigate the association between xenobiotics intake and different stages of intestinal mucosal damage and colorectal cancer (CRC) screening and examine whether these associations may be mediated by altered intestinal mutagenicity. This was a case control study with 37 control subjects, 49 patients diagnosed with intestinal polyps, and 7 diagnosed with CRC. Lifestyle, dietary, and clinical information was registered after colonoscopy. For xenobiotics intake estimation the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer (EPIC) and the Computerized Heterocyclic Amines Resource for Research in Epidemiology of Disease (CHARRED) databases were used. The mutagenicity of fecal supernatants was assayed by the Ames test and light microscopy was used for the presence of aberrant crypt formation. Among all the potential carcinogens studied, the polyp group showed higher intakes of ethanol and dibenzo (a) anthracene (DiB(a)A). Besides, intakes between 0.75 and 1.29 µg/d of total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were related with a higher risk of belonging to the polyp group. On the contrary, an intake of wholegrain cereals greater than 50 g/d was associated with a reduction in the relative risk of belonging to the polyp group. Heterocyclic amines (HAs) such as 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo (4,5,b) pyridine (PhIP) were associated with an increased level of mutagenicity in polyps. This study is of great interest for the identification of possible therapeutic targets for the early prevention of colon cancer through diet.

Abstract
Colorectal polyps are precursor lesions of colorectal cancer and are known to be associated with obesity, low physical activity, and unhealthy behavior. This cross-sectional study analyzed the prevalence of colorectal polyps based on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), muscle strength, and health behavior in older adults. Participants were asymptomatic and included 1024 men and 472 women aged 65-80 years who visited the health care center. Colonoscopy was performed under conscious sedation, and cardiorespiratory fitness was measured as the maximum oxygen uptake using gas analysis. Muscle strength was determined using isokinetic equipment, and physical activity, alcohol consumption, and smoking status were investigated using questionnaires. Waist circumference was measured at the thickest part of the middle of the abdomen. Logistic regression analysis was used to calculate the prevalence of colorectal polyps using odds ratios (ORs) based on the variables. The incidence of colorectal polyps was 65.2% in men and 48.5% in women. The ORs of colorectal polyps for obesity were 1.151 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.010-2.291) and 1.178 (95% CI, 1.015-2.612) in men and women, respectively. The OR for colorectal polyps in male current smokers was 1.884. The ORs for low CRF were 1.985 and 1.841 in men and women, respectively, compared with high CRF. The prevalence of polyps increased with low muscle strength (men's OR 1.343 women's OR 1.440) and physical activity in both men (OR 1.693) and women (OR 1.861). In conclusion, lower CRF and muscle strength were associated with an increased prevalence of colorectal polyps in men and women. In both sexes, high waist circumference and low physical activity increased the prevalence of colorectal polyps.
