Abstract

Background and objective: Obesity is associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer. Many studies showed that body mass index (BMI) is related to the incidence of colon cancer. This study was to explore the relationship between BMI and colon cancer in Chinese population and provide evidences for the prevention of colon cancer.

Methods: Clinical data, including BMI, of 707 colon cancer patients and 709 healthy subjects were compared.

Results: The mean BMI was significantly higher in colon cancer patients than in healthy subjects [(24.52+/-4.56) kg/m2 vs. (23.75+/-3.14) kg/m2, t=-3.72, P<0.001]. When stratified by sex and age, the BMI was always higher in colon cancer patients than in healthy subjects. Logistic regression analyses showed that BMI was an important risk factor of colon cancer (odds ratio=1.059, 95% confidence interval=1.029-1.090).

Conclusion: The occurrence of colon cancer in Chinese population is related to BMI.

[体重指数与结肠癌的关系]。

背景与目的:肥胖与结直肠癌风险增加有关。许多研究表明，身体质量指数(BMI)与结肠癌的发病率有关。本研究旨在探讨中国人群BMI与结肠癌的关系，为预防结肠癌提供依据。方法:对707例结肠癌患者与709例健康人的BMI等临床资料进行比较。结果:结肠癌患者的平均BMI明显高于健康人群[(24.52+/-4.56)kg/m2 vs (23.75+/-3.14) kg/m2, t=-3.72, p]。结论:中国人群中结肠癌的发生与BMI有关。
