Age-adjusted for sex; sex-adjusted for age;

3

Multivariable-adjusted OR in stepwise logistic regression model, where age and sex were forced to enter into the model; other significant factors were selected from history of abdominal or pelvis surgery, poor bowel preparation, and inflammatory bowel disease with P < 0.05 for entry and removal.
