Purpose: To evaluate racial and Weight disparities in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening in a convenience sample in the community, and to see if there is a difference among Whites and African Americans in using different modalities of CRC screening. Methods: we used a survey that is derived from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Data were collected through filling a questionnaire completed by adult volunteers during personal interviews. A convenience sample of 177 non-institutionalized adults aged >18 were interviewed. Analyses for this investigation were limited to individuals ≥50 who reported their weight, height, age and race, and answered questions about CRC screening. For the association between race and CRC screening, 47 individuals were qualified and included in the analysis. For association between Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) and CRC screening; 51 individuals were qualified and included in the analysis. We calculated colorectal cancer screening rates for the entire sample and separately for each racial and weight group. Fisher's Exact Chi-Square test was performed to evaluate the association between previous groups and CRC screening. Mantel-Haenszel Odds Ratios were reported with 95% confidence intervals for African Americans and CRC screening, and for obesity and CRC screening. Results: The 47 individuals, who reported race and received CRC screening were 15 African Americans and 32 Whites. Overall, African American had 40% decreased odds of being screened for CRC compared to Whites, but this was not statistically significant (OR = 0.6, CI = 0.174–2.060). The CRC screening rate with both races combined was 53.3% with 23.4% reporting FOBT within last year and 53.2% reporting endoscopic screening within the past 10 years. Obese individuals were less likely to be up-to-date on CRC screening (4/10 = 40%) than non obese individuals (24/41 = 58.5%) and have 53% decreased odds of being screened for CRC compared to non-obese individuals with P-value of 0.241, OR = 0.472, and CI = 0.297 –1.933. Although African Americans were less likely than Whites to have FOBT or endoscopy but that was more pronounced in FOBT (13% for AA vs. 28.1%, for Whites P= 0.232, OR = 0.39, 95% CI = .074–2.61) Obese individuals were almost as likely as non obese to have FOBT in the past year (20% vs. 22%) with P value of 0.633. However, obese individuals were less likely than non obese in receiving endoscopic screening (30% vs. 56.1%, P= 0.13, OR = 0.335, CI = 0.076 –1.483). Conclusion: There are possible disparities in CRC screening rates among African Americans and Whites and among obese and non-obese individuals. Also there are possible different utilization patterns of screening methods for CRC in different subgroups.
