Background: CRC is going to be an important issue in Middle East countries. Also, the main parts of this cancer develop from benign adenomas.
Aim: To understand the recurrence rate of colorectal polyps among average-risk subjects.
Method: In a prospective study, the average-risk patients with colorectal adenoma were enrolled in this study based on inclusion criteria. The patients were consulted annually by an expert gastroenterologist. A control colonoscopy was programmed after three years of follow-up. It was not an obligation to follow our program, and each patient could exit the study at any time. The patient who developed one of the exclusion criteria was also withdrawn from the study by the gastroenterologist of this study.
Results: 237 patients were enrolled in this study. Of them, 102 patients completed their 3-year follow-up. Among these participants, 62 (60.8%) were male and 40 (39.2%) were female, with a mean age of 57.05 ± 12.87 years. Additionally, 20 (19.6%) subjects had adenomatous polyps at the end of the study. Patients with recurrent colorectal polyps tend to be raised in large ones with a tubulovillous morphology. The polyps were more commonly located in the sigmoid colon, rectum. Furthermore, high-grade dysplasia was recorded in 5 patients. Tubulovillous polyp had higher chance of recurrence than patients with tubular polyp.
Conclusion: We believe the colonoscopy screening needs to be set up in regions previously considered low-risk for CRC. Also, it may be valuable to control colonoscopy for less than three years in patients with dysplasia.

Background AI-systems in endoscopy are predominantly developed and tested using high-quality imagery from expert centers. Their performance may be different when applied on heterogeneous imagery in clinical practice. This is partially caused by the diversity in post-processing enhancement settings used in endoscopy units.

Importance: High-quality colonoscopy reduces the risks of colorectal cancer by increasing the adenoma detection rate. Routine use of an automatic quality control system (AQCS) to assist in colorectal adenoma detection should be considered.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of an AQCS on the adenoma detection rate among colonoscopists who were moderate- and low-level detectors during routine colonoscopy.

Objectives: Studies have suggested that computer-aided polyp detection using artificial intelligence improves adenoma identification during colonoscopy. However, its real-world effectiveness remains unclear. Therefore, this study evaluated the usefulness of computer-aided detection during regular surveillance colonoscopy.

Objectives: Colonoscopy is the gold standard for screening cancer and precancerous lesions in the large intestine. Recently, remarkable advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to the development of various computer-aided detection (CADe) systems for colonoscopy. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of AI for colonoscopy using CAD-EYE (Fujifilm, Tokyo, Japan) to calculate the adenoma miss rate (AMR).

Background: Highly frequent colorectal cancer (CRC) is predicted to have 3.2 million novel cases by 2040. Tumor microenvironment (TME) bacteriome and metabolites are proposed to be involved in CRC development.
