*

Odds ratio defined over the 7-year study period from general estimating equations analysis adjusted for study entry year, age, sex, and center

**

The relative risk (RR) of screening-colonoscopy vs. HSgFOBT adherence in the first round was 1.18 (95% CI 1.14 −1.22)

***

Adherence for screening-colonoscopy at LSUHS was 83% for whites and 78% for Blacks (RR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.86 – 1.02)34
