abstract: 'Introduction The objective of this study was to investigate the various
factors that influence colorectal cancer screening in Michigan using
6091 participants in the Michigan Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance
System representing adults >= 50 years old.
Methods Screening for colorectal cancer was assessed as fecal occult
blood testing or colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy. Full models simultaneously
adjusted for alcohol use, angina/coronary heart disease, stroke, heart
attack, gender, income, marital status, race, age, diabetes, disability,
exercise, health care coverage, health care access, smoking, and mental
health. Data analysis included cross-tabulation and logistic regression
modeling.
Results Minorities were 1.3 (unadjusted odds ratio; 95\% confidence
interval = 1.03-1.57) times more likely to never have a
colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy than non-Hispanic whites. Race/ethnicity was
not significant in the full model, but adults with the following
characteristics were significantly (p < 0.05) more likely to never have
a colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy: no personal doctor/health care provider, no
health care coverage, light alcohol consumption <= 25\% of days, no
alcohol consumption, low income < \$15,000, 50-64 years old, no
diabetes, no activity limitation, no exercise, smoked daily, and smoked
some days.
Conclusion The racial disparity in colorectal cancer screening in
Michigan was explained by other characteristics. The healthcare
community can work to eliminate racial disparities in colorectal cancer
screening by increasing screening efforts for individuals with these
characteristics.'
