Happy to be part of this study but at the same time a bit worried about the results.
Early Onset Colorectal Cancer incidence and mortality are expected to increase by approximately 20% from 2022 to 2050. Low Human Development Index countries, Eastern Africa, Western Africa, and Middle Africa are projected to have more than double the number of cases and deaths (119.4% to 152.4% and 119.9% to 153.2%).
Let us please have our families, friends, and ourselves screened! Colonoscopy is recommended to start at 45 years old. π
