Age-Specific Differences in the Risk of Colorectal Precursor Lesions Among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Undergoing Surveillance Colonoscopy. Asian Pac J Cancer Prev 2023; 24:1769-1779. [PMID: 37247300 PMCID: PMC10495897 DOI: 10.31557/apjcp.2023.24.5.1769] [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: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence rate of colorectal cancer (CRC) in young adults is rising in parallel with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The majority of CRC develop through two main subtypes of precursor lesions; adenomas and serrated lesions. The associations between age and T2D on development of precursor lesions remain uncertain. OBJECTIVES We studied the association of T2D with the development of adenomas and serrated lesions in individuals <50 versus ≥50 years of age, in a population undergoing long-term regular surveillance colonoscopy due to an elevated risk of CRC. METHODS A case-control study was conducted on patients who were enrolled in a surveillance colonoscopy program between 2010-2020. Findings at colonoscopy, clinical and demographic features were collected. Adjusted and unadjusted binary logistic regression assessed the association of age, T2D, sex, and other medical conditions and lifestyle-related factors with different subtypes of precursor lesions diagnosed at colonoscopy. Cox proportional hazards model analysis determined the association of T2D and other confounders with development time for precursor lesions. RESULTS Cases included 412 patients <50y [mean age 38.7 (range, 24-49y)] and 824 sex-matched controls ≥50y [62.1 (50-75y)]. Individuals <50y were less likely to have been diagnosed with T2D than those ≥50y (7% vs 22%, P-value<0.001). During the follow-up period, there was no significant association between T2D and diagnosis of any precursor lesions, but when considering development time, individuals with T2D developed non-significant adenomas earlier than those without T2D (HR =1.46; 95% CI: 1.14-1.87; P-value=0.003). However, this was not independent of age or findings at index colonoscopy. CONCLUSIONS T2D does not further increase the incidence of adenomas or serrated lesions in either a young or older cohort undergoing long-term surveillance colonoscopy.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy in the U.S. and worldwide. Most CRC cases arise from precancerous adenomatous and serrated polyps. Established risk factors for conventional adenomas and CRC include age, male sex, family history, obesity and physical inactivity, and red meat intake. White race and tobacco and alcohol use are important risk factors for serrated polyps, which have a distinct risk factor profile compared to conventional adenomas. A history of abdominopelvic radiation, acromegaly, hereditary hemochromatosis, or prior ureterosigmoidostomy also increases CRC risk. Understanding these risk factors allows for targeted screening of high-risk groups to reduce CRC incidence.

Abstract
Background Cancer becomes the leading cause of premature death in China. Primary objective of this study was to determine the major risk factors especially glucose intolerance for cancer prophylaxis. Methods A cluster sampling method was applied to enroll 10,657 community-based adults aged 15-92 years in Shanghai, China in 2013. A structured questionnaire and physical examination were applied in baseline survey. Prediabetes was diagnosed using 75-g oral glucose tolerance test. After excluding 1433 subjects including 224 diagnosed with cancer before and 1 year after baseline survey, the remaining 9,224 subjects were followed-up to December 31, 2020. Results A total of 502 new cancer cases were diagnosed. The cancer incidence was 10.29, 9.20, and 5.95/1,000 person-years in diabetes patients, those with prediabetes, and healthy participants, respectively (p<0.001). The multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that age, prediabetes and diabetes, were associated with an increased risk of cancer in those <65 years, the hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for prediabetes and diabetes were, 1.49(1.09-2.02) and 1.51(1.12-2.02), respectively. Glucose intolerance (prediabetes and diabetes) were associated with increased risks of stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, and kidney cancer in those <65 years. Anti-diabetic medications reduced the risk of cancer caused by diabetes. The multivariate Cox analysis showed that age, male, <9 years of education, and current smoking were associated with increased risks of cancer in those ≥65 years independently. Conclusions Glucose intolerance is the prominent cancer risk factor in adults <65 years. Lifestyle intervention and medications to treat glucose intolerance help prevent cancer in this population.

Self-reported Metabolic Risk Factor Associations with Adenomatous, Sessile Serrated, and Synchronous Adenomatous and Sessile Serrated Polyps. Cancer Prev Res (Phila) 2021; 14:697-708. [PMID: 33947705 PMCID: PMC8295232 DOI: 10.1158/1940-6207.capr-20-0664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Revised: 03/04/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Studies have found a positive association between metabolic risk factors, such as obesity and diabetes, and adenomatous polyps (AP). However, fewer studies have assessed the association between sessile serrated polyps (SSP) or synchronous diagnosis of APs and SSPs (synch polyps). Study participants (N = 1,370; ages 40-85) undergoing screening colonoscopy were enrolled between August 2016 and February 2020. Self-reported metabolic risk factors, including diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and overweight/obesity, were evaluated for associations with new diagnoses of APs, SSPs, and synch polyps at the present colonoscopy. Average participant age was 60.73 ± 8.63 (SD) years; 56.7% were female and 90.9% white. In an assessment of individual metabolic risk factors, adjusted for age, sex, race, and smoking status, increased body mass index (BMI; overweight or obese vs. normal BMI of <25 kg/m2) was associated with an increased odds for new onset of colon APs (P trend < 0.001) as was a diagnosis of diabetes [adjusted conditional OR (aCOR) = 1.59 (1.10-2.29)]. No associations were seen between the metabolic risk factors and onset of SSPs. Being obese or hypertensive each increased the odds of new onset of synch polyps with aCOR values of 2.09 (1.01-4.32) and 1.79 (1.06-3.02), respectively. Self-reported risk factors may help assess polyp type risk. Because SSPs and synch polyps are rare, larger studies are needed to improve our understanding of the contribution of these factors to polyp risk. These data lead us to hypothesize that differences in observed metabolic risk factors between polyp types reflect select metabolic impact on pathways to colorectal cancer. PREVENTION RELEVANCE: Self-reported medical history provides valuable insight into polyp risk, potentially enabling the use of larger retrospective studies of colonoscopy populations to assess knowledge gaps. More aggressive colonoscopy screening, critical to colorectal cancer prevention, may be considered in populations of individuals with metabolic risk factors and modifiable lifestyle risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, the American Cancer Society made a qualified recommendation to start colorectal cancer (CRC) screening at 45 years of age in all average-risk individuals. In this study, our primary aim is to calculate the prevalence and also evaluate the predictors of increased prevalence of detected adenomas in the 40-49-year-old individuals undergoing colonoscopy. METHODS A retrospective cross-sectional study was performed using our endoscopy database. Study subjects included all 40-49-year-old patients undergoing their first colonoscopy at our institution from January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2017. Exclusion criteria included patients who underwent colonoscopy for overt gastrointestinal bleeding, inflammatory bowel disease, a history of familial adenomatous polyposis, hereditary non-polyposis CRC. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were performed to identify factors associated with increased adenoma detection rate (ADR). RESULTS A total of 2059 patients were included in the study, and 317 of these patients had family history (FH) of CRC. Patients with FH of CRC had significantly higher ADR (27.8% vs. 19.7%, p = 0.001) as compared to those without FH of CRC. There was no significant difference in ADR in patients between 40-44 years and 45-49 years of age (17.7% vs. 21.4%, p = 0.058). On a multivariate analysis while adjusting for multiple patient and procedural variables, FH of CRC, male sex, BMI > 30 kg/m2, chronic kidney disease, and age were associated with high ADR. CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that in addition to FH of CRC, age, male sex, BMI, and CKD are independent predictors of increased ADR in patients between 40 and 49 years of age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is rising in incidence in young adults, and this observation is currently unexplained. We investigated whether having a personal history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) was a potential risk factor for young-onset colorectal cancer (YOCRC). METHODS The South Australian Young Onset (SAYO) CRC study is a series of young adults with CRC below age 55. Ninety unrelated YOCRC cases were recruited to the study. Personal history and detailed family history of T2D were obtained at face-to-face interview and confirmed from medical records. Whole exome sequencing was conducted on germline DNA from each CRC case. Controls for personal history studies of T2D were 240 patients with proven clear colonoscopies and no known CRC predispositions. RESULTS The median age of YOCRC cases was 44 years (18-54) and of controls was 45 years (18-54), and 53% of both cases and controls were females (P = 0.99). Left-sided (distal) CRC was seen in 67/89 (75%) of cases. A personal history of T2D was confirmed in 17/90 (19%) YOCRC patients compared with controls (12/240, 5%; P < 0.001; odds ratio = 4.4; 95% confidence interval, 2.0-9.7). YOCRC patients frequently reported at least one first-degree relative with T2D (32/85, 38%). Ten of 87 (12%) of YOCRC cases had CRC-related pathogenic germline variants, however, no pathogenic variants in familial diabetes-associated genes were seen. CONCLUSIONS Though the mechanism remains unclear, our observations suggest that there is enrichment for personal history of T2D in YOCRC patients. IMPACT A diagnosis of T2D could therefore potentially identify a subset of young adults at increased risk for CRC and in whom early screening might be appropriate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus (DM) and colorectal cancer (CRC) share some risk factors, including lifestyle and metabolic disturbances. We aimed to provide in-depth information on the association of CRC risk, especially early-onset CRC, with DM, family history of CRC, and age at DM diagnosis. METHODS A nationwide cohort study was conducted using Swedish family cancer data sets, inpatient, and outpatient registers (follow-up: 1964-2015), including all individuals born after 1931 and their parents (12,614,256 individuals; 559,375 diabetic patients; 162,226 CRC patients). RESULTS DM diagnosis before the age of 50 years was associated with a 1.9-fold increased risk of CRC before the age of 50 years (95% CI for standardized incidence ratio: 1.6-2.3) vs 1.3-fold risk of CRC at/after the age of 50 years (1.2-1.4). DM diagnosis before the age of 50 years in those with a family history of CRC was associated with 6.9-fold risk of CRC before the age of 50 years (4.1-12) and 1.9-fold risk of CRC at/after the age of 50 years (1.4-2.5). Diabetic patients had a similar lifetime risk of CRC before the age of 50 years (0.4%, 95% CI: 0.3%-0.4%) to those with only a family history of CRC (0.5%, 0.5%-0.5%), double that of the population (0.2%, 0.2%-0.2%). DISCUSSION Our large cohort with valid information on DM and family history of cancer showed that DM is associated with increased risk of CRC in a magnitude close to having family history of CRC. Associations of DM and CRC family history with increased CRC risk were most prominent in young adults. These findings warrant further studies on harms, benefits, and cost-effectiveness of CRC screening in patients with diabetes, especially type 2, at earlier ages than in the general population.

Abstract
Over the past several decades, the incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC; in patients <50 years old) has increased at an alarming rate. Although robust and scientifically rigorous epidemiological studies have sifted out environmental elements linked to EOCRC, our knowledge of the causes and mechanisms of this disease is far from complete. Here, we highlight potential risk factors and putative mechanisms that drive EOCRC and suggest likely areas for fruitful research. In addition, we identify inconsistencies in the evidence implicating a strong effect of increased adiposity and suggest that certain behaviours (such as diet and stress) might place nonobese and otherwise healthy people at risk of this disease. Key risk factors are reviewed, including the global westernization of diets (usually involving a high intake of red and processed meats, high-fructose corn syrup and unhealthy cooking methods), stress, antibiotics, synthetic food dyes, monosodium glutamate, titanium dioxide, and physical inactivity and/or sedentary behaviour. The gut microbiota is probably at the crossroads of these risk factors and EOCRC. The time course of the disease and the fact that relevant exposures probably occur in childhood raise important methodological issues that are also discussed.

A Review of the Management of Sporadic Colorectal Adenomas in Young People: Is Surveillance Wasted on the Young? Dig Dis Sci 2019; 64:2107-2112.

Abstract
The national incidence of colorectal cancer is increasing in people younger than 50 years old. Although diagnostic colonoscopy is detecting more sporadic adenomas in young adults, there are no guidelines for post-polypectomy surveillance. The aim of this review was to survey the medical literature on the prevalence of sporadic adenomas in young adults, subsequent risk of metachronous neoplasia, and lastly to provide several concluding recommendations for clinical practice. We found that the prevalence of sporadic adenomas in young adults is greater than initially estimated and dependent upon factors such as colonoscopy indication and age. The incidence of metachronous colorectal neoplasia following polypectomy is unclear but does not appear to be greater than that of older adults. Risk factors for metachronous neoplasia include findings on index colonoscopy, male gender, smoking status, and certain medical comorbidities. Upon finding a colorectal adenoma in a young person, we suggest that a detailed family history be obtained to confirm that it is truly sporadic. Testing adenomas for evidence of Lynch syndrome is low yield. Strategies to inform surveillance intervals may include an assessment of risk factors for metachronous neoplasia, although surveillance intervals shorter than those recommended in current guidelines are not warranted. Future research should focus on obtaining long-term, prospective data on the incidence of metachronous neoplasia in diverse patient populations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are associated with colorectal neoplasia (CRN) and carcinoma (CRC). Whether such subjects must undergo screening colonoscopy (SC) earlier, is unknown. Incidences of CRNs in 40-49- versus 50-65-year-old bariatric patients were compared by SC. No prospective data on SC is available in morbidly obese/MetS. MATERIAL AND METHODS Surgical weight loss candidates over 39 years of age, asymptomatic, and average-risk for CRC offered SC. Those giving written informed consent were enrolled. Colonoscopies were done by the same surgeon. Smoking/drinking history, fasting blood glucose (FBG), insulin, C-peptide, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein, vitamin D, HbA1c, and insulin resistance parameters were recorded. CRN rate and the distribution of variables in patients 40-49 years of age were compared with 50-65. Student's t and Chi-square tests were used as appropriate. P < 0.05 was regarded as statistically significant. RESULTS Among 168 SCs, 47 had CRNs (27.9%). Including carcinoma, 15 had an advanced CRN (aCRN) (8.9% aCRN and 0.6% CRC). CRN rate was 35.6% in ≥ 50 years old whereas 22.1% in 40-49 (p = 0.053). aCRN rates (8.4% in 40-49 versus 9.6% in 50-65) were similar (p = 0.792). Metabolic parameters and smoking-drinking history were equally distributed between the groups except FBG and HbA1c as their mean levels were slightly higher in the 50-65 age group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Presented results warrant routine SC in the 40-49-year-old morbidly obese and/or MetS patient population with average risk, and in aged > 50, it certainly must be enforced and included in the preoperative check-list if not done before.

Abstract
Early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) is defined as colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosed before the age of 50. Alarmingly, there has been a significant increase in EOCRC diagnoses' worldwide over the past several decades. Emerging data suggest EOCRCs have distinguishing clinical, pathological, biological and molecular features; and thus, are a fundamentally different subtype of CRCs. Unfortunately, there is no simple explanation for the causes of EOCRC. Scientifically rigorous studies are needed to determine what may be driving the challenging epidemiology of EOCRC. We contend here that a reasonable hypothesis is that prenatal risk factors such as maternal stress and associated sleeping disorders influence offspring epigenetic make-up, and shape immune system and gut health contributing to an increased risk for EOCRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes has been identified as a risk factor for developing colorectal cancer (CRC); however, the literature identifying groups most at risk is sparse. This study aims to understand the relationship between CRC and diabetes by age and race/ethnicity. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study of data from the 2001-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (unweighted n = 37,173; weighted n = 214,363,348). Individuals were categorized as having CRC if diagnosed with colon or rectal cancer and as having diabetes if told by a doctor they had diabetes, were taking insulin, or had an HbA1c ≥ 6.5%. Covariates included gender, age, race, marital status, educational level and income as a ratio of the poverty line. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between CRC and diabetes overall and stratified by age and by race. RESULTS 24.32% of the sample with CRC also had diabetes. After adjusting for covariates, individuals with diabetes had a 47% greater probability of having CRC (p = 0.03). While significance did not persist after stratification for those ≥65 years (OR = 1.06, p = 0.74), those <65 years with diabetes had nearly 5-times higher odds of having CRC (OR = 4.78, p < 0.001). When stratified by race, both groups had statistically higher odds of having CRC; however, the odds for non-whites (OR = 1.87, p = 0.04) were higher compared to whites (OR = 1.54, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Individuals younger than 65 and racial/ethnic minorities have higher odds of CRC when also diagnosed with diabetes. Targeted interventions for these populations, especially regarding screening recommendations, may result in earlier detection of CRC and improved health outcomes.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) develops from colorectal adenomatous polyps. This study is to determine if diabetes mellitus (DM), its treatment, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level are associated with increased risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study that included patients who had at least one colonoscopy and were continuously enrolled in a single managed care organization during a 10-year period (2002–2012). Of these patients (N = 11,933), 1800 were randomly selected for chart review to examine the details of colonoscopy and pathology findings and to confirm the diagnosis of DM. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the associations between DM, its treatment, HbA1c level and adenomatous polyps (our main outcome). Results Among the total of 11,933 patients with a mean (standard deviation) age of 56 (± 8.8) years, 2306 (19.3%) had DM and 75 (0.6%) had CRC. Among the 1800 under chart review, 445 (24.7%) had DM, 11 (0.6%) had CRC and 537 (29.8%) had adenomatous polyps. In bivariate analysis, patients with DM had 1.45 odds of developing adenomatous polyps compared to those without DM. This effect was attenuated (odds ratio = 1.25, 95% CI: 0.96–1.62, p = 0.09) after adjusting for confounders such as age, gender, race/ethnicity, and body mass index. There was no significant association between type or duration of DM treatment or HbA1c level and adenomatous polyps. Conclusions Our study confirmed the known increased risk of adenomatous polyps with advancing age, male gender, Hispanic race/ethnicity and higher body mass index. Although it suggested an association between DM and adenomatous polyps, a statistically significant association was not observed after controlling for other potential confounders. Further studies with a larger sample size are needed to further elucidate this relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The incidence of colorectal cancer in the United States has decreased substantially in individuals aged 50 and older. In contrast, it is increasing in young adults. The polyp characteristics on baseline and follow-up colonoscopy in young adults are not well characterized. We describe the polyp characteristics on baseline and follow-up colonoscopy in adults <40 years and determined factors associated with the occurrence of metachronous, advanced neoplasia or high-risk (HR) polyp features. We compared the occurrence of metachronous advanced neoplasia in young adults with those 50 years and older to assess whether postpolypectomy surveillance guidelines seem appropriate for polyp-bearing adults less than age 40 years. METHODS Patients <40 years of age with >1 polyp removed on colonoscopy followed by a postpolypectomy colonoscopy were eligible. The primary outcome was the occurrence of advanced neoplasia or HR polyp features on follow-up colonoscopy. Secondary endpoints included factors associated with metachronous advanced neoplasia in young adults. The occurrence of metachronous advanced neoplasia in young adults was compared with a cohort of patients aged 50 years and older. RESULTS Included were 128 patients with a mean age of 34.9 years; 124 patients (97%) had adenomas and 7% had sessile serrated polyps (SSPs). Advanced neoplasia was seen in 35% of patients at baseline. The median follow-up time was 33.6 months. Metachronous advanced neoplasia was identified in 7% of patients on follow-up colonoscopy. Baseline factors associated with metachronous advanced neoplasia included the presence of an SSP (hazard ratio, 7.8; 95% CI, 1.09-56.3; P = .041) with a trend in those with advanced neoplasia (hazard ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, .89-12.8; P = .072). The occurrence of metachronous advanced neoplasia did not differ between the young and older cohorts (7% vs 12.2%, P = .58); however, young adults were less likely to have HR polyp features on follow-up (8.6% vs 20.3%, P = .008). CONCLUSIONS More than 1 in 3 adults <40 years old undergoing colonoscopy had advanced neoplasia on baseline colonoscopy. The occurrence of metachronous advanced neoplasia in young adults is similar to older adults and appears to be associated with the size, pathology, and number of baseline polyps. Our data suggest young polyp-bearing adults may undergo postpolypectomy colonoscopy at intervals currently recommended by national guidelines. Confirmation in larger studies is warranted.

Abstract
Increasing amounts of evidence has demonstrated that T2DM (Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus) patients have increased susceptibility to CRC (colorectal cancer). As HHEX is a recognized susceptibility gene in T2DM, this work was focused on two SNPs in HHEX, rs1111875 and rs7923837, to study their association with CRC. T2DM patients without CRC (T2DM-only, n=300), T2DM with CRC (T2DM/CRC, n=135), cancer-free controls (Control, n=570), and CRC without T2DM (CRC-only, n=642) cases were enrolled. DNA samples were extracted from the peripheral blood leukocytes of the patients and sequenced by direct sequencing. The χ2 test was used to compare categorical data. We found that in T2DM patients, rs1111875 but not the rs7923837 in HHEX gene was associated with the occurrence of CRC (p= 0.006). for rs1111875, TC/CC patients had an increased risk of CRC (p=0.019, OR=1.592, 95%CI=1.046-2.423). Moreover, our results also indicated that the two variants of HEEX gene could be risk factors for CRC in general population, independent on T2DM (p< 0.001 for rs1111875, p=0.001 for rs7923837). For rs1111875, increased risk of CRC was observed in TC or TC/CC than CC individuals (p<0.001, OR= 1.780, 95%CI= 1.385-2.287; p<0.001, OR= 1.695, 95%CI= 1.335-2.152). For rs7923837, increased CRC risk was observed in AG, GG, and AG/GG than AA individuals (p< 0.001, OR= 1.520, 95%CI= 1.200-1.924; p=0.036, OR= 1.739, 95%CI= 0.989-3.058; p< 0.001, OR= 1.540, 95%CI= 1.225-1.936). This finding highlights the potentially functional alteration with HHEX rs1111875 and rs7923837 polymorphisms may increase CRC susceptibility. Risk effects and the functional impact of these polymorphisms need further validation.

Abstract
The recently rapid increase of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus has caused great burden to our society. A positive association between type 2 diabetes and risk of colorectal cancer has been reported by increasing epidemiological studies. The molecular mechanism of this connection remains elusive. However, type 2 diabetes may result in abnormal carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, high levels of circulating insulin, insulin growth factor-1, and adipocytokines, as well as chronic inflammation. All these factors could lead to the alteration of energy sensing pathways such as the AMP activated kinase (PRKA), mechanistic (mammalian) target of rapamycin (mTOR), SIRT1, and autophagy signaling pathways. The resulted impaired SIRT1 and autophagy signaling pathway could increase the risk of gene mutation and cancer genesis by decreasing genetic stability and DNA mismatch repair. The dysregulated mTOR and PRKA pathway could remodel cell metabolism during the growth and metastasis of cancer in order for the cancer cell to survive the unfavorable microenvironment such as hypoxia and low blood supply. Moreover, these pathways may be coupling metabolic and epigenetic alterations that are central to oncogenic transformation. Further researches including molecular pathologic epidemiologic studies are warranted to better address the precise links between these two important diseases.

Abstract
The disorders of gastrointestinal (GI) tract including intestine and colon are common in the patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). DM induced intestinal and colonic structural and biomechanical remodeling in animals and humans. The remodeling is closely related to motor-sensory abnormalities of the intestine and colon which are associated with the symptoms frequently encountered in patients with DM such as diarrhea and constipation. In this review, firstly we review DM-induced histomorphological and biomechanical remodeling of intestine and colon. Secondly we review motor-sensory dysfunction and how they relate to intestinal and colonic abnormalities. Finally the clinical consequences of DM-induced changes in the intestine and colon including diarrhea, constipation, gut microbiota change and colon cancer are discussed. The final goal is to increase the understanding of DM-induced changes in the gut and the subsequent clinical consequences in order to provide the clinicians with a better understanding of the GI disorders in diabetic patients and facilitates treatments tailored to these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The prevalence of colorectal adenoma is increasing in the average-risk population. However, little research is available on colorectal adenoma in young adults under age 40. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of colorectal adenoma in 20- to 39-year-old adults. METHODS We evaluated 4286 asymptomatic young adults aged 20 to 39 years who underwent first colonoscopy screening as part of an employer-provided health wellness programme at the Health Promotion Centre of Samsung Changwon Hospital, Korea from January 2011 to December 2013. Logistic regression modelling was used to identify risk factors for colorectal adenoma in asymptomatic young adults. RESULTS The prevalence of colorectal adenoma and advanced adenoma was 11.6% (497/4286) and 0.9% (39/4286), respectively. By age group, the prevalence of colorectal adenoma was 5.4% (33/608) in participants aged 20 to 29 years and 12.6% (464/3678) in participants aged 30 to 39. Colorectal adenoma was found in 13.1% (403/3072) of men and 7.7% (94/1214) of women. Increased risk of colorectal adenoma was associated with age over 30 years (OR, 2.37; 95% CI, 1.64-3.42), current smoker status (OR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.14-1.91), and alcohol consumption (OR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.03-1.63). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that even if the prevalence of colorectal adenoma was low in young adults aged 20 to 39, being over 30, cigarette smoking, and alcohol consumption can affect young adults who have no other CRC risks.

Abstract
Metformin is known as a hypoglycaemic agent that regulates glucose homeostasis by inhibiting liver glucose production and increasing muscle glucose uptake. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with about a million new cases diagnosed each year. The risk factors for CRC include advanced age, smoking, black race, obesity, low fibre diet, insulin resistance, and the metabolic syndrome. We have searched Medline for the metabolic syndrome and its relation to CRC, and metformin as a potential treatment of colorectal cancer. Administration of metformin alone or in combination with chemotherapy has been shown to suppress CRC. The mechanism that explains how insulin resistance is associated with CRC is complex and not fully understood. In this review we have summarised studies which showed an association with the metabolic syndrome as well as studies which tackled metformin as a potential treatment of CRC. In addition, we have also provided a summary of how metformin at the cellular level can induce changes that suppress the activity of cancer cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To summarize the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and risk of colorectal adenomas (CRA), we performed a meta-analysis of observational studies. METHODS To find studies, we searched PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science and conference abstracts and related publications for American Society of Clinical Oncology and the European Society of Medical Oncology. Studies that reported relative risks (RRs) or odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between T2DM and risk of CRA were included. The meta-analysis assessed the relationships between T2DM and risk of CRA. Sensitivity analyses were performed in two ways: (1) by omitting each study iteratively and (2) by keeping high-quality studies only. Publication bias was detected by Egger's and Begg's tests and corrected using the trim and fill method. RESULTS This meta-analysis included 17 studies with 28,999 participants and 6798 CRA cases. We found that T2DM was a risk factor for CRA (RR: 1.52; 95 % CI: 1.29-1.80), and also for the advanced adenoma (RR: 1.41; 95 % CI: 1.06-1.87). Patients with existing T2DM (RR: 1.56; 95 % CI: 1.16-2.08) or newly diagnosed T2DM (RR: 1.51; 95 % CI: 1.16-1.97) have a risk of CRA. Similar significant results were found in retrospective studies (RR: 1.57; 95 % CI: 1.30-1.89) and population based cross-sectional studies (RR: 1.46; 95 % CI: 1.21-1.89), but not in prospective studies (RR: 1.27; 95 % CI: 0.77-2.10). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggested that T2DM plays a risk role in the risk of developing CRA. Consequently, medical workers should increase the rate of CRA screening for T2DM patients so that they can benefit from behavioural interventions that can help prevent the development of colorectal cancer. Additional, large prospective cohort studies are needed to make a more convincing case for these associations.

Abstract
Background The negative effect of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the colonoscopy preparation has been previously established. Metabolic syndrome has been shown to increase risk for malignancy and possibly for premalignant lesions. This study aimed to investigate the impact of DM control on colonoscopy outcomes including bowel preparation and adenoma detection rate (ADR). Methods We included patients with DM who underwent colonoscopy in our hospital and had a documented glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) within 3 months. Patients were categorized into three groups based on their HbA1C level. The clinical and endoscopic data were collected and analyzed. Results Our cohort included 352 DM patients. The mean age was 63.5 years. When patients were analyzed based on HBA1C, bowel preparation was poor in 46.7% of patients with good glycemic control, 52.1% of patients with fair control and 50% of patients with poor control. ADR was 24.3% in patients with good glycemic control, 20.2% in patients with fair glycemic control and 27.1% in patients with poor glycemic control. There was no statistically significant difference in the quality of preparation or adenoma detection amongst the groups. Conclusion The degree of glycemic control did not impact the quality of bowel preparation or ADR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent studies proved that patients with diabetes were at significantly higher risk of developing colorectal cancer. However, the association between diabetes mellitus and the risk of colorectal adenoma remains undefined. Thus we conducted an updated meta-analysis to identify the association between diabetes mellitus and the risk of colorectal neoplasia including adenoma and cancer. METHODS We conducted a search in databases including Pubmed, Web of Science, EMBASE Databases, Cochrane CENTRAL, Wanfang Data, and CNKI database. Case-control and cohort studies were included. All articles were published before January 2015 and the quality of each study was evaluated by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Odds ratios (ORs) or relative risks (RRs) and its corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for each study were calculated and summary relative risk estimates with corresponding 95% CIs were generated using the random-effects model. Heterogeneity and publication bias were assessed. RESULTS Twenty-nine articles including ten case-control studies and nineteen cohort studies were included in this meta-analysis. In a pooled analysis of all studies, diabetes mellitus was associated with increased risk of colorectal neoplasia (RR=1.35, 95% CI=1.28-1.42). The risk increased significantly for both colorectal cancer (RR=1.37, 95% CI=1.30-1.45) and adenoma (RR=1.26, 95% CI=1.11-1.44). Subgroup analyses on study design, gender, geographical region, and type of diabetes mellitus further evidenced these findings. CONCLUSIONS Diabetes mellitus was associated with an increased risk of colorectal neoplasia. Not only the increased risk of colorectal cancer but also the higher risk of adenoma was identified in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Several existing studies indicated that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) may be associated with colorectal adenoma, but the results and risk factors are controversial. A systematic review of studies was conducted to explore these issues by meta-analysis. METHODS We searched the Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane library, Medline and Web of Science databases for studies published before May 30(th), 2014. A statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2 software. RESULTS Seven studies involving 11,905 participants from different regions were included. Among them, five trials carried out subgroup of NAFLD patients in colorectal adenoma population. The result showed NAFLD was significantly correlated with adenoma of colon (Odds ratio [OR] = 1.56, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.22-1.99, P = 0.0003). It could be found in stratified analysis that patients had more chance to get multiple adenomas when they suffered NAFLD (Rate ratio [RR]: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.08-2.13, P = 0.02). Such risk factors of NAFLD as age, waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), disorder of lipid metabolism, hyperglycemia and high blood pressure (HBP) increased risk of colorectal adenoma (Age: mean difference [MD]: 2.81, 95% CI: 0.33-5.28; Waist: MD: 2.84, 95% CI: 2.14-3.54; BMI: MD: 0.85, 95% CI: 0.69-1.01; High-density lipoprotein: MD: -2.46, 95% CI: -3.68 to -1.24; Triglyceride: MD: 16.12, 95% CI: 8.89-23.36; Low-density lipoprotein: MD: 6.04, 95% CI: 3.60-8.48; Cholesterol: MD: 4.25, 95% CI: 0.87-7.63; Fasting glucose: MD: 2.27, 95% CI: 1.24-3.30; HBP: OR = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.22-1.88), while diabetes had no significant association with it (OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 0.94-2.17, P = 0.09). Besides, NAFLD didn't affect the location, size and advanced type of colorectal adenoma (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The present systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated NAFLD was closely associated with great risk of colorectal adenoma and its number, but not with its location, size and advanced type. Waist, obesity, lipid profiles, glucose, hypertension played roles in the process of colorectal adenoma.
