Background. The literature on colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is contradictory regarding the impact of weight status on CRC screening. This study was intended to determine if CRC screening rates among 2005 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) respondent racial/ethnic and gender subgroups were influenced by weight status. Methods. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to determine if CRC screening use differed significantly among obese, overweight, and normal-weight individuals in race/ethnic and gender subgroups. Results. Multivariable analyses showed that CRC screening rates did not differ significantly for individuals within these subgroups who were obese or overweight as compared to their normal-weight peers. Conclusion. Weight status does not contribute to disparities in CRC screening in race/ethnicity and gender subgroups.
背景。关于体重状况对结直肠癌（CRC）筛查的影响，结直肠癌筛查方面的文献存在矛盾之处。本研究旨在确定2005年美国国家健康访谈调查（NHIS）受访者的种族/族裔和性别亚组中的结直肠癌筛查率是否受体重状况影响。方法。进行单变量和多变量逻辑回归分析，以确定肥胖、超重和正常体重的个体在种族/族裔和性别亚组中的结直肠癌筛查使用率是否存在显著差异。结果。多变量分析表明，与正常体重的同龄人相比，这些亚组中肥胖或超重个体的结直肠癌筛查率没有显著差异。结论。体重状况并不会导致种族/族裔和性别亚组在结直肠癌筛查方面存在差异。
