Popis: Cancer monitoring of Shanghai showed a rapid increase in the incidence of colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer risk assessment allows for rapid screening of high-risk populations. The colorectal cancer screening of elderly residents is ongoing since 2013 in Shanghai. This initiative screened 85,525 people from 11 communities of the Qingpu District. Screening included a questionnaire-based risk assessment and two Fecal Occult Blood Tests (FOBTs). We conducted a retrospective case study of patients with positive screening results that underwent fibro-colonoscopy examinations to investigate their histories of schistosoma infection, smoking, alcohol consumption, and dietary habits. A total of 85,525 people were screened in this study. Colorectal cancer was resulted in a prevalence of 59.84/100,000. And the prevalence of schistosoma infection was 400/100,000. Among patients with schistosoma infection, the positive rate of FOBT was 67.01%, in contrast to an overall positive rate of FOBT among all subjects of 17.00% [(Pearson ⎥2=672.42, P 2 = 980.62, P
