Race and colorectal cancer disparities: health-care utilization vs different cancer susceptibilitiesAdeyinka O Laiyemo
Department of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, Howard University Cancer Center, Washington, DC 20060, USA
J Natl Cancer Inst 102:538-46. 2010..It is unclear whether the disproportionately higher incidence and mortality from colorectal cancer among blacks compared with whites reflect differences in health-care utilization or colorectal cancer susceptibility...
Short- and long-term risk of colorectal adenoma recurrence among whites and blacksAdeyinka O Laiyemo
Department of Medicine, Howard University Hospital, Washington, DC, USA
Gastrointest Endosc 77:447-54. 2013..It is unclear whether the higher burden from colorectal cancer among blacks is due to an increased biological susceptibility...
Obesity, weight change, and risk of adenoma recurrence: a prospective trialA O Laiyemo
Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20060, USA
Endoscopy 44:813-8. 2012..However, no prospective study has evaluated whether weight loss actually affects adenoma recurrence. The aim of this study was to examine whether weight change (loss or gain) over 4 years is associated with adenoma recurrence...
Factors associated with inadequate colorectal cancer screening with flexible sigmoidoscopyAdeyinka O Laiyemo
Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20060, USA
Cancer Epidemiol 36:395-9. 2012....
Self-reported colorectal cancer screening of Medicare beneficiaries in family medicine vs. internal medicine practices in the United States: a cross-sectional studyAngela Y Higgins
Department of Family Medicine and Community Health, University of Massachusetts UMass Medical School, 55 Lake Avenue North, Worcester, MA 01655, USA
BMC Gastroenterol 12:23. 2012..This study compared self-reported CRC screening rates and patient awareness of the need for CRC screening of patients receiving care from family medicine (FPs) vs. internal medicine (internists) physicians...
Likelihood of missed and recurrent adenomas in the proximal versus the distal colonAdeyinka O Laiyemo
Department of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC, USA
Gastrointest Endosc 74:253-61. 2011..Colonoscopy may be less efficacious in reducing colorectal cancer mortality in the proximal compared with the distal colon. A greater likelihood for missed and recurrent adenomas in the proximal colon may contribute to this phenomenon...
Colorectal-cancer incidence and mortality with screening flexible sigmoidoscopyRobert E Schoen
Department of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
N Engl J Med 366:2345-57. 2012..The benefits of endoscopic testing for colorectal-cancer screening are uncertain. We evaluated the effect of screening with flexible sigmoidoscopy on colorectal-cancer incidence and mortality...
Colorectal cancers not detected by screening flexible sigmoidoscopy in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening TrialRobert E Schoen
Department of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
Gastrointest Endosc 75:612-20. 2012....

Department of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213, USA
Gastrointest Endosc 71:111-7. 2010..Despite regular colonoscopy, interval colorectal cancer (CRC) may occur. Long-term studies examining CRC rates in patients with previous colonoscopy are lacking...
Scheduled out-patient endoscopy and lack of compliance in a minority serving tertiary institutionDanielle S Jackson
Departments of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20060, USA
Am J Med Sci 344:194-8. 2012..Lack of adherence to appointments wastes resources and portends a poorer outcome for patients. The authors sought to determine whether the type of scheduled endoscopic procedures affect compliance...
Timing of procedure and compliance with outpatient endoscopy among an underserved population in an inner-city tertiary institutionDilhana S Badurdeen
Department of Medicine, Howard University College of Medicine, Washington, DC 20060, USA
Ann Epidemiol 22:531-5. 2012..We examined patients' compliance with scheduled outpatient endoscopy by time of the day, days of the week, and seasons of the year...
Geographic variation in colorectal cancer survival and the role of small-area socioeconomic deprivation: a multilevel survival analysis of the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study CohortMin Lian
Department of Medicine, School of Medicine, Washington University, St Louis, Missouri, USA
Am J Epidemiol 174:828-38. 2011..In future studies, investigators should evaluate other neighborhood characteristics to help explain geographic heterogeneity in CRC survival. Such research could facilitate interventions for reducing geographic disparity in CRC survival...
