Abstract
BACKGROUND: Diabetes and dyslipidemia have been linked to an increased risk of colorectal neoplasm (CRN). However, previous studies evaluating these associations have shown inconsistent results, and large-scale studies are few in number. AIM: To investigate the associations between the parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism and the presence of CRN. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed on 38,490 Korean adults aged ≥30 years undergoing their first colonoscopy as part of routine preventive health care between 2010 and 2011. RESULTS: The prevalence of overall CRN increased with increasing levels of glucose, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), insulin, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) and with decreasing level of apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1). The adjusted prevalence ratios for overall CRN comparing the fourth with the first quartiles of fasting glucose, HbA1c, insulin, HOMA-IR, triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL-C, ApoB, and ApoA-1 were 1.83 (95% CI 1.62-2.06), 1.17 (95% CI 1.03-1.33), 1.09 (95% CI 0.97-1.23), 1.22 (95% CI 1.08-1.37), 1.31 (95% CI 1.16-1.48), 1.19 (95 % CI 1.07-1.33), 1.38 (95% CI 1.23-1.54), 1.30 (95% CI 1.14-1.47), and 0.85 (95% CI 0.76-0.95), respectively. There was also a significant association between higher levels of glucose, LDL-C, and ApoB with a higher prevalence of advanced CRN. Moreover, the risk of CRN increased further in cases in which the parameters of glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism worsened simultaneously. CONCLUSIONS: The levels of parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism are significantly associated with the prevalence of CRN. Altered glucose and lipid metabolism may contribute to the development of CRN.
