Table 4. Predictive performance of baseline adenoma attributes for predicting adenoma recurrence and invasive colorectal adenocarcinoma.

  Any recurrent adenoma, N=537/3,300 ROC-AUC (P value)

B. Covariates and attributesa 69.0% (<0.0001) 72.2% (<0.0001) 88.3% (<0.0001)
Net gainb 9.6% (<0.0001) 13.6% (<0.0001) 22.8% (<0.0001)

Abbreviations: ICRC, invasive colorectal cancer; ROC-AUC, receiver operating characteristic-area under the curve.

Any recurrent adenoma: any adenoma (including tubular, sessile, or flat) with or without risk attributes.

Attributes: Advanced adenoma: adenoma with ≥1 risk attributes. Risk attributes were defined at namely the number (≥3) and size (≥10 mm) of adenomas, and the presence of high-grade dysplasia or villous morphology.

Covariates include age, sex, smoking status, and family history of colorectal cancer.

a

Contrasted with the null model (i.e., the non-discrimination line).

b

Model B contrasted with Model A.
