“…After Meta-analyzing the results of a study containing twenty articles, Zhang found that there were no significant differences in the degree of cleanliness (Boston score) and the number of colonic adenomatous polyps detected, the probability of successful cecum insertion, and patient comfort whether Low-fiber diet or clear liquid diet were used as a bowel cleansing method, however, patients consuming Low-fiber diet, as compared to those on the clear liquid diet, however, patients who consumed a low-fiber diet experienced hunger pangs and nausea and vomiting much less frequently than those on a clear liquid diet, and were more likely to be accepted by patients [8].

Colorectal cancer ranks third in the global cancer data in 2020. Colorectal scope is the most effective method to diagnose colorectal diseases such as benign and malignant colorectal tumors. The poor quality of intestinal preparation causes an increased rate of missed diagnosis of colorectal tumors, reduces the rate of cecal intubation for colorectal examination, increases the discomfort, and reduces the compliance of re-examination. Therefore, we should try our best to improve the quality of intestinal preparation. This study reviewed the latest advances related to the preoperative preparation for colonoscopy. Recent research shows that smartphone apps can provide more detailed education and guidance on bowel preparation; Pre-packaged foods are more suitable as a way to eat before colonoscopy. The use of smaller doses, better taste of cathartic agents, and some auxiliary measures, combined with the patient's situation to provide personalized intestinal preparation measures to improve the quality of intestinal preparation. Starting from the quality of colonoscopy bowel preparation, continuous improvement of patients' tolerance to bowel preparation, continuous improvement of bowel preparation plan based on individual factors' needs, and better communication with examined subjects by using existing scientific information technology, may be the hot spot of colonoscopy bowel preparation research in the next few years.
