Hypertriglyceridemia is positively correlated with the development of colorectal tubular adenoma in Japanese men

Abstract: AIM:To determine the real association between serum lipid levels and colonic polyp formation. METHODS:We performed a large scale retrospective study to analyze the correlation between the incidence of colorectal adenoma or carcinoma and the fasting serum levels of total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) in patients who underwent total colonoscopy for screening for colon cancer. RESULTS:Both levels were significantly elevated in patients with adenomas as compared with patients without any neoplastic lesio… Show more

“…These associations were independent of other lipids examined in the study and were not confounded or modified by other demographic risk factors, including gallstones. Higher levels of triglycerides and lower levels of high density lipoprotein, has been reported in several other malignancies, including tumors of the colon, breast and prostate, [33][34][35] and has been implicated in gallbladder cancer etiology, due to its close relationships with gallstones, obesity, high-fat diet, and diabetes 36,37 which are also linked to gallbladder cancer 38,39 .…”

“…Nine studies were conducted in the USA (16,18,20,32,35,(37)(38)(39)(40) , one in Sweden (42) , five in Korea (6,9,10,22,27) , two in China (23,30) , eight in Japan (8,24,26,28,29,31,36,43) , one in Austria (41) and three in European countries (4,17,34) (Tables 1 and 2). Pooled analysis showed a significant association between serum TAG and CRN (n 29 studies; summary RR = 1·08; 95 % CI 1·05, 1·12, P < 0·00001; Fig.…”

“…Two studies were conducted in the USA (20,39) , one in Germany (19) , three in Korea (9,10,22) and three in Japan (28,29,36) ( Table 2). The results from nine studies showed that serum TC had a significant association with risk of CRA (RR = 1·04; 95 % CI 1·01, 1·09, P = 0·02) and there was no significant heterogeneity among these studies (Q = 5·26, P value for heterogeneity = 0·73, I 2 = 0 %; Table 3).…”

“…These associations were independent of other lipids examined in the study and were not confounded or modified by other demographic or risk factors, including gallstones. Hyperlipidemia, especially higher levels of triglycerides and lower levels of HDL, has been reported in several other malignancies, including tumors of the colon, breast and prostate, [37][38][39] and has been implicated in gallbladder cancer etiology, due to its close relationships with gallstones, obesity, high-fat diet and diabetes 40,41 which are also linked to gallbladder cancer. 2,4 In contrast to the hyperlipidemic effects of total cholesterol, LDL, apo A and apo B on biliary tract cancer risk, we also observed excess risks of all 3 subsites of biliary tract cancers at low levels of total cholesterol, LDL and apo B, and high levels of apo A, independent of the other lipids and risk factors, including gallstones.…”
