Influence of demographics on colorectal cancer.

摘要: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence race, gender, and age on colorectal cancer cases in our tumor registry between January 1987 December 2000 determine implications these factors screening strategies. Tumors were defined as early (Stage I/II) or late III/IV) proximal distal (relationship splenic flexure). Effect examined by stratifying patients into three groups ( 70 years). Two time periods (1/87-12/96 1/97-12/00) compared. Significance (P years = 0.04), with family history colon compared lesions. Proximal migration tumors occurred latter part (1997-2000 1987-1996) 0.002). Patients 61.9 per cent a white male >50 35.1 cent. Significant differences exist stage location according patient's age, gender. These should be considered implementing public Specifically, African-American more likely present late-stage tumors, aggressive patient education programs implemented. For all groups, identified. This factor eliminate use sigmoidoscopy tool. Complete colonoscopy, instead, procedure choice identify colonic neoplasia.
