Summary: Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption had substantially increased across successive US birth cohorts until 2000, and adolescents and young adults under age 50 years have the highest consumption. However, the link between SSBs and early-onset colorectal cancer (EO-CRC) remains unexamined. In the Nurses’ Health Study II (1991-2015), we prospectively investigated the association of SSB intake in adulthood and adolescence with EO-CRC risk among 95 464 women who had reported adulthood beverage intake using validated food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) every 4 years.

Summary: Although there are international guidelines on the management of antithrombotic therapy in patients undergoing colonoscopic polypectomy, whether clinicians and patients follow these recommendations are largely unknown. We aimed to evaluate clinician adherence and patient compliance to periendoscopic management of antithrombotic therapy and their impact on clinical outcomes.
