To determine the risk factors and prevalence of asymptomatic gastric polyps in the general population of Taiwan.
Consecutive asymptomatic individuals completing a health examination during October 2015-March 2016 were enrolled in the study and subjected to upper GI endoscopy. Their demographic data and medical history were collected, and the prevalence of gastric polyps was calculated. The risk factors of gastric polyps were identified by analyzing these data through univariate and multivariate logistic regression.
Gastric polyp prevalence in the study population was 29.8%. Age range of 45-60 years, current smoking, and lack of regular exercise were found to be significantly associated with gastric polyps, whereas age range of 45-60 years (relative risk [RR], 1.59; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.06-2.40) and current smoking (RR, 1.63; 95% CI, 1.04-2.55) were found to be independent predictors for gastric polyps.
In Taiwan, asymptomatic gastric polyps have a prevalence of 29.8%. Age range of 45-60 years and current smoking may increase the risk of asymptomatic gastric polyps.
确定台湾普通人群中无症状胃息肉的危险因素及患病率。
纳入2015年10月至2016年3月期间连续完成健康检查的无症状个体，并对其进行上消化道内镜检查。收集他们的人口统计学数据和病史，并计算胃息肉的患病率。通过单因素和多因素逻辑回归分析这些数据，确定胃息肉的危险因素。
研究人群中胃息肉患病率为29.8%。发现年龄在45 - 60岁、当前吸烟以及缺乏规律运动与胃息肉显著相关，而年龄在45 - 60岁（相对风险[RR]，1.59；95%置信区间[CI]，1.06 - 2.40）和当前吸烟（RR，1.63；95% CI，1.04 - 2.55）被发现是胃息肉的独立预测因素。
在台湾，无症状胃息肉的患病率为29.8%。年龄在45 - 60岁和当前吸烟可能会增加无症状胃息肉的风险。
