  2. bHigh risk adenoma includes any adenoma larger than 1 cm, 3 or more adenomas, any adenoma with a villous component, or high-grade dysplasia.
  3. aHR, adjusted hazards ratio; CI, confidence interval; MHNO, metabolically healthy non-obese; MANO, metabolically abnormal non-obese; MHO, metabolically healthy obese; MAO, metabolically abnormal obese; CRC, colorectal cancer.
