CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio; K-BDI, Korean version of the Beck’s Depression Inventory.

Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed.

In colonic neoplasia, the following parameters were excluded from the analysis, because the P-values from the Chi-square test were more than 0.05; BEPSI-K level ≥ 2.4 (P = 0.402), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) (P = 0.863), past history of cancer (P = 0.171), past history of stomach or colon cancer (P = 0.147). In stomach neoplasia, the following parameters were excluded from the analysis, because the P-values from the Chi-square test were more than 0.05; BMI ≥ 25 (P = 0.587), BEPSI-K level ≥ 2.4 (P = 0.147), NSAID (P = 0.631), past history of cancer (P = 0.452), past history of stomach or colon cancer (P = 0.227).
