Abdominal Visceral Adipose Tissue Predicts Risk of Colorectal Adenoma in Both Sexes
TLDR
Abdominal visceral adipose tissue volume can contribute to the development and growth of colorectal adenomas, and it was a better predictor for risk of colorenomas than body mass index or waist circumference in both sexes.About:

Obesity and colorectal cancer
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that obesity is associated with a 30-70% increased risk of colon cancer in men, whereas the association is less consistent in women, although the risk appears lower.

TL;DR: CRC incidence increased exclusively in young adults in nine high-income countries spanning three continents, potentially signalling changes in early-life exposures that influence large bowel carcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visceral obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and cancer.
TL;DR: Emerging evidence linking visceral adiposity and the metabolic syndrome (MetSyn) with carcinogenesis is presented and it is clear from current research that excess visceral obesity and associated dysmetabolism play a central role in the pathogenesis of certain cancer types.

TL;DR: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is associated with a high prevalence of colorectal adenomas and advanced neoplasms and coloreCTal cancer screening is strongly indicated in this high risk group of NAFLD patients.

TL;DR: Dairy therapy remains the first line of treatment of high blood cholesterol, and drug therapy is reserved for patients who are considered to be at high risk for CHD, and the fundamental approach to treatment is comparable.

Overweight, obesity, and mortality from cancer in a prospectively studied cohort of U.S. adults.
TL;DR: Current patterns of overweight and obesity in the United States could account for 14 percent of all deaths from cancer in men and 20 percent of those in women, and increased body weight was associated with increased death rates for all cancers combined and for cancers at multiple specific sites.

TL;DR: The results of the National Polyp Study support the view that colorectal adenomas progress to adenocarcinomas, as well as the current practice of searching for and removing adenomatous polyps to prevent coloreCTal cancer.
