- - mt-sDNA testing is a stool-based method for screening colorectal cancer (CRC), showing that in an initial test, 16% were positive with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 27.3% for cancer or advanced lesions
- - A study reviewed data from 2758 patients who took a second test after a negative first result, finding a 15% positivity rate and PPV of 0.25% for CRC, 24% for advanced lesions, and 67% for any colorectal growth
- - The findings indicate that the test's performance was consistent between the first and second screenings, supporting the relevance of conducting a second mt-sDNA test for CRC detection effectiveness
