Article Synopsis
- Colorectal cancer is a major public health issue globally, emphasizing the need for early detection and screening guidelines, particularly for at-risk populations like older adults.
- A study in Kuwait surveyed adults aged 45-75 to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding colorectal cancer screening using a self-administered questionnaire.
- Results showed low levels of knowledge (<50%) and practices (<30%) among participants, despite the fact that their attitudes toward screening were generally positive, indicating a disconnect that could impact compliance.
