Association between metabolic syndrome and early-stage colorectal cancer

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Accumulating studies have suggested metabolic syndrome (MetS) contributed to colorectal cancer (CRC) development. However, advanced CRC might decrease the detection proportion of MetS due to chronic malnutrition, we included patients with early-stage CRC to examine the associations among MetS, onset age, and different tumorigenesis pathways of CRC. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study that included 638 patients with early-stage CRC from January 2014 to December 2018. Patient information was collected from the medical record system and further refined during the follow-up. Stratified analyses of the associations between MetS and different stratification factors were determined by the Cochran‒Mantel‒Haenszel test. RESULTS: There were 16 (13.3%) and 111 (21.4%) cases suffering from MetS in the early-onset and late-onset CRC groups, respectively. MetS coexisted in early-stage CRC patients ≥ 50 years of age more frequently than patients < 50 years of age (OR 1.77; 95% CI 1.01 to 3.12), but not for women patients (OR 0.84; 95% CI 0.79 to 0.90). MetS patients were associated with a higher risk of advanced serrated lesions than that of conventional adenomas (OR 1.585; 95% CI 1.02 to 2.45), especially in patients ≥ 50 years (OR 1.78; 95% CI 1.11 to 2.85). CONCLUSIONS: Metabolic dysregulation might partly contribute to the incidence of colorectal serrated lesions. Prevention of MetS should be highly appreciated in the early diagnosis and early treatment of the colorectal cancer system, especially in patients ≥ 50 years.
