Conventional models mostly rely on generalized obesity markers including body mass index (BMI), which does not effectively represent oncogenic risk linked with abdominal obesity. Liu <i>et al</i> undertook a large-scale case-control study comprising 6484 first-time colonoscopy patients at a prominent Chinese hospital between 2020 and 2023 to overcome this restriction. Age, male sex, smoking status, and raised waist-hip ratio (WHR) were found by multivariate logistic regression as independent predictors of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACN). In a validation cohort of 1891 individuals, a new 7-point risk scoring model was created and stratified into low- (5.0%) ACN prevalence, moderate- (10.3%) and high-risk (17.6%). With C-statistic = 0.66 the model showed better discriminating ability than the Asia-Pacific Colorectal Screening (APCS) score (C-statistic = 0.63) and the BMI-modified APCS model. These results fit newly published data showing central obesity as a major carcinogenic driver <i>via</i> pro-inflammatory visceral adipokine channels. With the use of WHR, patient risk classification is greatly improved, providing a practical tool to make the most of screening resources in the face of rising CRC incidence rates. Finally, multi-ethnic validation is necessary for the WHR-based scoring model to be considered for integration into global CRC preventive frameworks, since it improves the accuracy of ACN risk prediction.</p>","PeriodicalId":23802,"journal":{"name":"World journal of clinical oncology","volume":"16 10","pages":"109843"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12576516/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145432454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
