Meta‐analysis: adherence to colorectal cancer screening and the detection rate for advanced neoplasia, according to the type of screening test

Abstract: SUMMARY BackgroundA variety of tests have been proposed for colorectal cancer (CRC), giving rise to uncertainty regarding the optimal approach. The efficacy and effectiveness of different tests are related to both screenee participation and the detection rate.

“…Because of the slow progression from detectable and curable precancerous lesions to colorectal cancer and the strong dependence of prognosis on stage at diagnosis, early detection of colorectal cancer has great potential to reduce the burden of this disease (2)(3)(4). Colonoscopy is the gold standard for detecting colorectal cancer and its precursors, but its application as primary screening test is impaired by high costs, limited capacities, and typically lower adherence (5,6). Noninvasive stool tests are an attractive alternative for colorectal cancer screening due to their low cost and suitability for home use or in a primary care setting.…”

“…Due to the slow progression from precancerous lesions to colorectal cancer, early detection could strongly reduce the burden of this disease (2)(3)(4)(5). However, sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy, the current gold standards for detection of colorectal cancer in the distal and total colorectum, respectively, are limited by several disadvantages, such as high costs, limited resources, and low compliance (6,7). Established noninvasive screening tests are based on stool testing, such as guaiac-based fecal occult blood tests (gFOBT) and fecal immunochemical tests (FIT).…”
