Tu1898 The Interactions Between Diet, Mucosal Proliferation and GI Cancer Risk in Rural Africans and African Americans

Abstract

166 more tumors needed to be screened in the universal group compared to the reflex group.

The universal group identified one additional case of LS that would have been missed by a reflex strategy, though 166 additional tumors needed to be tested. In clinical practice, a reflex testing strategy may be just as effective and less burdensome as compared to universal tumor screening to detect LS. The power to detect differences was a limitation to this study. Characteristics and outcomes of positively screened patients
