Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study subjects were adult patients who underwent biliary ultrasound examination and concurrently underwent colonoscopy or pan-colonoscopy at Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Hospital of Chinese Medicine, Wuhu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Sir Run Run Hospital Nanjing Medical University, and Yangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2015 and December 2025. Based on data from the hospital information system, ultrasound system, endoscopy system, pathology system, surgery and anesthesia system, medical record front pages, laboratory system, and electronic medical records, cases meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be screened.

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥18 years, both sexes included.
  • At least one biliary ultrasound examination performed at this hospital during the study period.
  • At least one colonoscopy or pan-colonoscopy performed at this hospital during the study period.
  • Biliary ultrasound reports and colonoscopy reports contained key information sufficient for the determination of exposure and outcomes.
  • Reliable patient matching could be achieved through the hospital's unique identifier, visit number, examination number, etc.
  • Case data were within the data extraction timeframe and scope of use approved by the ethics committee.

Who cannot join

  • History of confirmed colorectal cancer or prior radical resection for colorectal cancer before baseline.
  • Inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, or unclassified inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes such as familial adenomatous polyposis, Lynch syndrome, and Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.
  • History of major colorectal resection, which affects the conventional risk assessment of colorectal adenoma.
  • Colonoscopy not reaching the ileocecal valve, or poor bowel preparation with reports indicating a significant impact on observation.
  • Missing key exposure, outcome, or matching information, precluding completion of the primary analysis.
  • Records of only gastroscopy, ERCP, endoscopic ultrasound, or other non-colonoscopy examinations.
  • Other cases deemed by the investigators upon review as not meeting the study protocol.

About this study

Official title: Correlation Between Cholecystectomy and Biliary Tract-Related Diseases and the Risk of Colorectal Adenoma: A Retrospective Real-World Study Based on Hospital Information System Data

This study is a retrospective real-world study based on the electronic medical record database of Nanjing First Hospital. By integrating data from the hospital information system, ultrasound system, endoscopy system, pathology system, surgery and anesthesia system, medical record front pages, laboratory system, and electronic medical records, the study aims to evaluate the relationship between a history of cholecystectomy and biliary tract-related diseases and the detection risk of colorectal adenoma, and further analyze their associations with advanced lesions including advanced adenoma, high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, adenoma carcinogenesis, or colorectal cancer. Additionally, it will explore the impact of different biliary disease subtypes, time intervals after cholecystectomy, and adenoma location on the study results. If the study finds that cholecystectomy or specific biliary diseases are associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenoma and advanced lesions, it may provide a reference for risk stratification of colorectal tumor screening and optimization of colonoscopy follow-up strategies for patients with biliary diseases; if no clear association is found, it may also provide evidence for clinically reasonable assessment of screening needs and avoidance of over-examination.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pathologically confirmed detection of colorectal adenoma

    The primary outcome was the pathologically confirmed detection of colorectal adenoma, including tubular adenoma, tubulovillous adenoma, villous adenoma, traditional serrated adenoma, adenoma with low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and adenoma with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia.

    Measured: The first colonoscopy during the study period that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, i.e., the baseline colonoscopy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Adenoma and Cholecystectomy, run by Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathologically confirmed detection of colorectal adenoma (time frame: The first colonoscopy during the study period that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, i.e., the baseline colonoscopy.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Nov 2026.
