“…In sensitivity analysis including studies using a timeframe within 180 days to define adherence, however, a comparable pooled adherence was obtained for observational studies, suggesting limited effect of the timeframe for colonoscopy in observational screening programs, in which most positive participants would attend colonoscopy follow‐up as soon as possible for early diagnosis and treatment. Moreover, Liang and Dominitz 41 have proposed that, from the population‐health perspective, the proportion of positive individuals attending subsequent colonoscopy is likely to be more important than the timely colonoscopy, particularly in screening programs with suboptimal follow‐up. Therefore, our overall estimates of adherence to colonoscopy regardless of the varied timeframe provide a global overview on the key point in CRC screening.…”
