The analysis between clinicopathological aspect of early-onset vs. late-onset colorectal cancer and mortality rate: a cross-sectional study.

Abstract

The authors performed a case-control study on 170 subjects with CRC from November 2021 to November 2022 in a Tertiary Hospital in Bandung. Data were extracted from electronic medical records CRC Registry. Bivariate and correlation analyses were used to analyse the difference between variables using IBM SPSS 24.0. P less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Anaemia and tumour location variables were significantly different in the early-onset group compared with the late-onset group (P<0.001). It was also found that anaemia (P<0.001), pathological features (P<0.001), and tumour location (P=0.013) had significantly low correlation with onset of CRC (r=0.325; r=0.397; r=0.342, respectively). There is no statistically significant correlation between the clinicopathological features of CRC in both onset and mortality rates in this study.
