In this study from Taiwan, patients with a negative colonoscopy after a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT) during the interval 2004 through 2009 were followed until the end of 2014. Some patients received subsequent FIT after colonoscopy and some did not. The incidence of colorectal cancer was 1.34 per 1000 person-years of observation in those who received subsequent FIT and 2.69 in those who did not. Higher fecal hemoglobin concentration was associated with increased risk. Compared to the group with fecal hemoglobin of 20 to 39, the risk of incident cancer was 1.93 for fecal hemoglobin of 40 to 59, 2.26 for fecal hemoglobin of 100 to 149, and 2.44 for fecal hemoglobin of 150 or higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
