Impact of SE of the Proximal Colon on the AMR

.Studies have demonstrated that the second examination of the proximal colon can significantly increase the proximal ADR.This study aimed to determine the impact of second examination of the proximal colon on AMR compared to conventional examination.Consecutive patients aged 40-75years undergoing colonoscopy for screening.Tandem withdrawal was used in the proximal colon.Patients were randomly assigned to either the second examination(SE) or the conventional examination(CE) group.The primary outcome measure was proximal AMR,defined as the number of proximal adenomas detected in the second pass（CE group）or the third pass（SE group）divided by the total number of proximal adenomas detected during the tandem colonoscopy.

Inclusion Criteria:Consecutive patients aged 40-75years undergoing colonoscopy for screeningExclusion Criteria:failed cecal intubation, prior colorectal resection, inadequate bowel preparation quality (Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS)scores < 2 in any segment of the colon), inflammatory bowel disease or intestinal tuberculosis, familial polyposis syndrome, coagulation dysfunction, or polyp retrieval failure.
