About The Study: The finding of a slightly lower prevalence of any adenoma in the younger compared with the older age group (35.4% vs 40.8%) in the current study is consistent with an evaluation of 2001 screening colonoscopies from a university-based medical center between 2019 and 2021, which reported slightly lower rates of adenoma detection in those ages 45 to 49 vs 50 to 54 (34.3% vs 38.2%) and with a large study of adenoma detection rates in those ages 45 to 49 vs 50 to 54 (28.6% vs 31.8%) who underwent a screening colonoscopy before the change in guidelines (i.e., 2014-2020).
