Modifiable risk factors for colorectal neoplasms and hyperplastic polyps.
PURPOSE Obesity, smoking and alcohol are modifiable putative risk factors for colorectal neoplasms (CRN) and hyperplastic polyps (HP). The aim of this study was to evaluate the strength of association between these modifiable risk factors and colorectal polyps. METHODS These risk factors were assessed by using a questionnaire completed by the patient prior to colonoscopy. Eight hundred-sevent...
متن کاملMolecular characteristics of colorectal serrated polyps and hyperplastic polyps
The serrated neoplasia pathway of colorectal carcinogenesis is characterized by BRAF mutation and aberrant DNA methylation, which have not been reported on Korean patients. The aim of this study was to investigate BRAF mutation and DNA methylation in colorectal serrated polyps and the right colon.Between 2005 and 2013, 146 colon polyps (47 tubular adenomas [TAs], 53 traditional serrated adenoma...
متن کاملTobacco smoking and colorectal hyperplastic and adenomatous polyps.
Colorectal adenomas and possibly some hyperplastic polyps are precursors of colorectal cancer. Tobacco use is associated in epidemiologic studies with these polyps, although links between smoking and colorectal cancer are less consistent. To characterize the role of tobacco in early colorectal carcinogenesis, we compared tobacco use among 4,383 subjects with histologically verified benign (hype...
متن کاملRisk factors for colorectal polyps in a mexican population
Background: The prevalence of colorectal polyps and adenomas in the general population of Mexico is unknown. Aim: To determine the prevalence and risk factors for colorectal polyps detected during flexible sigmoidoscopy (FSIG) in asymptomatic patients. Material and methods: From 1995 to 2008, FSIG was performed as part of a complete check-up in patients who had lived in northeast Mexico for ove...
متن کاملRisk factors for hyperplastic and adenomatous polyps: evidence for malignant potential?
Recent studies have suggested that hyperplastic polyps may be benign precursor lesions for a distinct subset of colorectal tumors. We conducted a clinic-based case-control study to evaluate risk factors for hyperplastic polyps. Cases with hyperplastic polyps (n = 219), adenomas (n = 437), and both types of polyps (n = 138), along with colonoscopy-negative controls (n = 708), were identified at ...
