Figures & data
Figure 1. Cohort Selection. 1CRC screening tests were mt-sDNA, colonoscopy, fecal immunochemical testing (FIT), fecal occult blood testing (FOBT), sigmoidoscopy, CT colonography and double-contrast barium enema (DCBE). 2FIT or FOBT in the year prior to the index date, no evidence of mt-sDNA test in 3 years prior to the index date, no evidence of other screening (sigmoidoscopy, CT colonography or DCBE) in 5 years prior to the index date, and no evidence of colonoscopy in 10 years prior to the index date. 3Codes and conditions for identifying above average-risk adults can be found in Supplementary Table 1.
