Background And Aims: This study aimed to identify independent risk factors for colorectal adenomatous polyps in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to develop a predictive model to facilitate early and targeted screening.
Methods: A total of 521 T2DM patients undergoing colonoscopy at Gansu Provincial People's Hospital (January 2022-May 2025) were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were randomly divided into a training set ( = 366) and a validation set ( = 155). The training set was further categorized into polyp and non-polyp groups. Logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors and construct a predictive model, which was evaluated by ROC curve, calibration plot and decision curve analysis.
Results: Age, homocysteine level, body mass index, fecal occult blood test positivity, diabetic peripheral neuropathy and diarrhea were identified as independent risk factors for colorectal adenomatous polyps in patients with T2DM. The predictive model demonstrated strong discrimination, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.878. At the optimal Youden index of 0.526, the model achieved a sensitivity of 0.749 and a specificity of 0.864. Calibration analysis showed good agreement between predicted and observed outcomes (χ = 6.173, = 0.628).
Conclusions: This predictive model, based on key clinical risk factors, provides an effective tool for assessing the risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps in T2DM patients, and may support early detection and targeted prevention strategies in clinical practice.

This study compares three hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) registries-the Iranian Hereditary Colorectal Cancer Registry (IHCCR), the Singapore Polyposis Registry (SPR), and the University of Cape Town Familial CRC Registry-to illuminate diverse approaches to identification, management, and research across different healthcare systems. Each registry, while emphasizing patient diversity, employed unique strategies reflecting available resources and epidemiological contexts. The IHCCR, leveraging WES, revealed considerable genetic heterogeneity, including novel mutations.

Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an inherited condition that predisposes individuals to colorectal cancer without preventive treatment. Surgical management typically involves restorative proctocolectomy with an ileal pouch anal anastomosis or colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis. Complete removal of the large intestine and rectum with a permanent stoma may also be required in selected cases.

Pathogenic variants in the APC gene are classically associated with autosomal dominant familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), characterized by tens-to-thousands of colonic adenomatous polyps and a high-penetrance predisposition to colorectal cancer. More recently, specific PVs in the YY1 binding motif of APC promoter 1B have been associated with autosomal dominant gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS), characterized by tens-to-thousands of fundic gland polyps and a predisposition to gastric cancer but which are only rarely associated with features consistent with FAP. Although management guidelines currently treat FAP and GAPPS as mutually exclusive conditions, the extent of phenotypic overlap is not well-characterized.

Objective: To compare the timing intervals of surveillance colonoscopies after resection for colorectal cancer with recommendations in the Australian Clinical Practice Guidelines for Surveillance Colonoscopy.
Study Design: A retrospective, observational study.
Data Sources: Adults who had a resection for colorectal cancer from the Costs of Surviving Cancer-Queensland Study (COS-Q), which is a retrospective population-based cohort study of all individuals diagnosed with a primary cancer from 2005 to 2015.

Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant syndrome that results from a germline mutation in the adenomatous polyposis coli gene. It is characterized by the early development of hundreds of adenomas in the colon during the second decade of life. If prophylactic colectomy is not performed, most patients eventually develop colorectal cancer (CRC).
