abstract = {Early detection of colorectal neoplasms can reduce the
disease burden of colorectal cancer by timely intervention
of individuals at high risk. Our aim was to evaluate a joint
environmental-genetic risk score as a risk stratification
tool for early detection of advanced colorectal neoplasm
(ACRN). Known environmental risk factors and high-risk
genetic loci were summarized into risk scores for ACRN in
1014 eligible participants of a screening study. The
performances of single and joint environmental-genetic
scores were evaluated with estimates and $95\%$ confidence
intervals (CI) of the absolute risk, relative risk and
predictive ability using the area under the curve (AUC).
Individuals with higher environmental risk scores showed
increasing ACRN risk, with 3.1-fold for intermediate risk
and 4.8-fold for very high risk, compared to the very low
environmental risk group. Similarly, individuals with higher
genetic risk scores showed increasing ACRN risk, with
2.2-fold for intermediate risk and 3.5-fold for very high
risk, compared to the lowest genetic risk group. Moreover,
the joint environmental-genetic score improved the ACRN risk
stratification and showed higher predictive values (AUC =
0.64; $95\%CI =$ 0.60-0.67) with substantial difference (p
= 0.0002) compared to the single environmental score (0.58;
0.55-0.62). The integration of environmental and genetic
factors looks promising for improving targeting individuals
at high-risk of colorectal neoplasm. Applications in
practical screening programs require optimization with
additional genetic and other biomarkers involved in
colorectal carcinogenesis.},
