Comparison and combination of bacterial markers with faecal immunochemical test (FIT). (A) Comparison of sensitivity and specificity of FIT, m3, combination of four makers (Fn, m3, Ch and Bc; LR4) and combination of bacterial markers with FIT in a subgroup of Hong Kong samples. LR4 combined with FIT performed best for colorectal cancer (CRC) detection, while m3 combined with FIT performed best for detecting adenoma. (B) Comparison of the sensitivities of FIT, LR4 and their combination in detecting CRC according to tumour-node-metastasis (TNM) stage subsets. (C) Comparison of the sensitivities of FIT, m3 and their combination in detecting non-advanced and advanced adenomas. All comparison of sensitivities was conducted by χ2 tests. A, non-advanced adenoma; AA, advanced adenoma.
