Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Gut microbiota were assessed in 540 colonoscopy-screened adults by 16S rRNA gene sequencing of stool samples. Investigators compared gut microbiota diversity, overall composition, and normalized taxon abundance among these groups.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Colorectal cancer is a heterogeneous disease arising from at least two precursors-the conventional adenoma (CA) and the serrated polyp. A relationship between the human gut microbiota and colorectal cancer has been shown; however, its relationship to the different early precursors of colorectal cancer is understudied. This study tested, for the first time, the relationship of the gut microbiota to specific colorectal polyp types.
