13. Colorectal Cancer Epidemiology
3rd most common cancer in the U. S.
3rd leading cause of cancer death
At age 50 a person has 5% lifetime chance
Pathology
80% arise from adenomatous polyps
Screening Rates
~25% report FOBT in last 12 months
~38% report any form of endoscopy in 5 years 5% lifetime chance of being diagnosed with CR Ca
1 in 3 people who are diagnosed die from the disease
Average person dying with colorectal cancer loses 13 years of expected life
More than 80% of colorectal cancers arise from
adenomatous polyps. Although fewer than 1% of
adenomatous polyps less than 1 cm will eventually
develop into cancer, 10% of adenomatous polyps
greater than 1 cm become malignant within 10
years, and about 25% become malignant after 20
years.6 The prevalence of adenomatous polyps
increases from 20% to 25% at age 50 to 50% by age

14. Question: Colorectal Cancer According to USPSTF, which of the following strategies for colorectal cancer screening is acceptable?
Colonoscopy every 5-7 years after 50yo for low-risk individuals
Annual in-office DRE and FOBT after 50yo
Flex sig and DCBE every 5 years after 50yo
Annual home FOBT beginning age 50
Virtual colonoscopy every 10 years after 50yo
15. Methods of Screening FOBT should be used on three consecutive stool samples obtained at home by the patient and returned to the physician. Rehydration of samples increases sensitivity but also increases the false positive rates.
Sensitivity and specificity of a single test have been estimated at 40% and 96% to 98%, respectively. Hydration of specimen increases sensitivity (60%) but reduces specificity (90%).
Annual screening with hydrated specimens detected 49% of all incident cancers, but 38% of all subjects had at least 1 colonoscopy due to positive results. Programs using unrehydrated specimens and/or biennial testing detect a smaller proportion of cancers (27% to 39%) but require fewer colonoscopies (5% to 28%).
In 3 recent randomized trials, performing flexible sigmoidoscopy in addition to FOBT yielded approximately 7 additional cancers or large polyps per 1,000 patients compared to FOBT alone. Adding FOBT did not improve the yield over sigmoidoscopy alone at the initial screening in these studies, which used flexible sigmoidoscopy, but did in an earlier study that used rigid sigmoidoscopy.
Previous studies have reported high sensitivity (86% to 90%) of DCBE for colorectal cancer and polyps, and high specificity (95%). In the National Polyp Study, however, DCBE detected only 48% of polyps greater than 1 cm.15 Sensitivity might be higher in a typical screening population where the proportion of large polyps is higher. Specificity of DCBE in this study was 85%.
Neither DRE nor single office occult testing is recommended in colorectal cancer screening.

22. Colorectal Cancer FAQs Screening for colon cancer should begin…?
Screen all adults beginning at age 50
Earlier if family history or personal risks exist
When can I stop screening?
FOBT has been proven effective 50-80yo
How should I screen for colorectal cancer?
Depends on patient and situation. Insurance!!!
At what interval should I screen for this method?
Depends on method used. FOBT q1, Flex sig q5, ACBE q5-10, Colon q10. There are few data to determine optimal age for starting or stopping screening. FOBT has been proven effective for persons aged 50-80 and sigmoidoscopy is associated with reduced mortality in persons older than 45. One cost-effectiveness model suggests that beginning screening at age 40 rather than at age 50 would offer less than a 1-day average improvement in life expectancy. Randomized trials suggest that a life expectancy of at least 5 years may be required to realize the benefits of screening.

34. Adult Vaccinations Rates of immunization are improving?
1989 to 2003 in adults >65 years of age
Pneumococcal vaccine 15% to 64%
Influenza vaccine 33% to 70%
1995 data on younger adults 18-49 years old
12% with indications had received pneumococcal
20% with indications had received influenza
Tetanus/diphtheria
Only 47% adults had protective antibody levels Overall immunization rates are improving in older adults (age 65)
However rates in younger adults at risk for disease / with indications for vaccination are still poor
Adult rates lag behind pediatrics rates which are overall >80% and for many diseases well into the 90% range
Less than 500 children a year die from vaccine preventable illnesses.
In contrast it is estimated that between 50000 to 70000 adults die annually from these two vaccine preventable diseases.
Only 47% of adults >20 years old had protective antibody levels to both tetanus and diphtheria in a large serologic survey published in Annals in 2002. This is compared to 91% of children age 6-11yo. Overall immunization rates are improving in older adults (age 65)

Does reduce invasive pneumococcal disease 1 Dear KB G, Andrews RR, Holden J, Tatham DP. Vaccines for preventing pneumococcal infection in adults. The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2003, Issue 4. Art. No.: CD000422. DOI: 10.1002/14651858.CD000422. First vaccine derived from a capsular polysaccharide.
First used in 1945 – which was around the same time as penicillin was discovered.
Originally not very popular because the prevailing thought was “Why give a vaccine when we have adequate antibiotics to treat the problem?”
Dr. Robert Austin in the 1970s promoted a 14 valent vaccine, which later evolved into the 23 valent vaccine that we now use since 1983
Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine 23 valent (PPV23)
More people die from pneumococal disease than any other vaccine preventable disease. Estimated to be 40,000 per year. Thought that as many as half of these deaths could be prevented with increased use of the PPV23.
Efficacy of 57%
Effects ages <2yo or >65yo primarily
Vaccination rates are improving 1989 15% to 2003 64%
2 available preparations Merck: Pneumovax. Lederle: Pnu-Immune 23 with phenol or thimerosal as a preservative
Efficacy
Nonrandomized studies have demonstrated significant benefit:
Cochrane Review mention also
Efficacy of 50% then corresponds to a number-needed-to-treat (NNT) of 20,000 vaccinations per infection avoided, and perhaps 50,000 per death avoided.

42. Indications for Pneumococcal Vaccine Adapted from MMWR 2003; 52:739-40 Asthma – Yes for flu. No for Pneumococcal
Functional or anatomic asplenia (i.e. patients with sickle cell disease)
No one should receive more than 2 doses of the vaccine unless they started as a child <10 years old
Contraindications include:
Previous anaphylactic reaction to vaccine or component
Relative contraindication during pregnancyAsthma – Yes for flu. No for Pneumococcal
Functional or anatomic asplenia (i.e. patients with sickle cell disease)

43. Influenza Vaccines Epidemiology
Annually 36,000 deaths/year in 1990-1999
Complications highest in = 2yo, = 65yo and individuals with certain diseases (DM, asthma)
School absenteeism >25%, Lost work productivity, increased medical burden
Vaccine products
Whole virus vs Split product - intramuscular
Live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) In the US accounts for approx. 36,000 deaths/year during the 1990s.
90% of those deaths occurred in people older than 65years
However during the last pandemics of flu, those 18-65 accounted for nearly half of deaths (1972)
30 million seek medical care for the flu each year
300K hospitalizations for flu related illnesses.
Tremendous cost to the US each year.
Children have the highest rates of infection overall for any age groups but complications such as hospitalization, pneumonia and death occur primarily in individuals less than 2 or older than 65.
Both whole virus and split product vaccines are appropriate for use in adults and children over the age of 12. Whole virus vaccines tend to cause a greater reaction in children under 12 though.
But for us, it is little concern as only split product vaccines are available currently in the US.
LAIV is approved for use in healthy individuals 5-49 years of age.
Inactivated intramuscular vaccine is for 6 months and older.
In 2005 there will be a thimerosal-free vaccine for influenza available.
When the vaccine and circulating viruses are antigenically similar, influenza vaccine prevents influenza illness among approximately 70%–90% of healthy adults aged <65 years. Vaccination of healthy adults also has resulted in decreased work absenteeism and decreased use of health-care resources, including use of antibiotics, when the vaccine and circulating viruses are well-matched.
In a randomized study among children aged 1–15 years, inactivated influenza vaccine was 77%– 91% effective against influenza respiratory illness and was 44%–49%, 74%–76%, and 70%–81% effective against influenza seroconversion among children aged 1–5, 6–10, and 11–15 years, respectively.

44. Indications for Influenza Vaccine * If 6mo=x<9yo and first-ever dose, repeat in 1 month. <36 mo use 0.25ml dose. If LAIV 2nd dose 6-10wks later
Adapted from MMWR June 29, 2007 internet release These recommendations are from the MMWR just released the week of July 13th for the upcoming 2005-06 flu season.
Vaccination is associated with reductions in influenza-related respiratory illness and physician visits among all age groups, hospitalization and death among persons at high risk, otitis media among children, and work absenteeism among adults.
Added this year are individuals with spinal cord injuries, neuromuscular diseases, aspiration syndromes, seizure disorder or any condition that can impair respiratory function or clearance of secretions.

Incidence in the US 0.16 per million (43/year) Wonderful case review and comments by Drs. Smallheiser and Deb Levine in the Annals not too long ago.
Annual incidence of 0.16/million or about 43 cases per year.
But very poor levels of immunity in the elderly – who are also at great risk of disease.

3 http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/cgi/reprint/101/1/141.pdf The USPSTF makes no recommendation for or against routine screening for lipid disorders in younger adults (men aged 20 to 35 or women aged 20 to 45) in the absence of known risk factors for coronary heart disease. (C)
Screening is recommended for men aged 20 to 35 and women aged 20 to 45 in the presence of any of the following:
–- Diabetes
– A family history of cardiovascular disease before age 50 years in male relatives or age 60 years in female relatives
– A family history suggestive of familial hyperlipidemia
– Multiple coronary heart disease risk factors (eg, tobacco use, hypertension)
Much controversy regarding the AAP statement as there is little evidence to suggest that any child with elevated cholesterol actually gains any benefit from interventions/treatments. Diets often prove ineffective in lowering total cholesterol or LDL in these children.The USPSTF makes no recommendation for or against routine screening for lipid disorders in younger adults (men aged 20 to 35 or women aged 20 to 45) in the absence of known risk factors for coronary heart disease.

71. AAA Background Epidemiology
9,000 annual deaths associated with AAAs
Prevalence Men: 4-9% Women: 1%
Deaths tend to occur in men >65 and women >80
Risk Factors
Age >65, male sex, history of >100 cigarettes, and ? Family History Major risk factors for AAA are smoking (ever in one’s lifetime of >100 cigarettes), age >65 years, and male sex.
First degree family history of surgical repair of a AAA elevates a male’s risk not necessarily a female’s risk
Majority of deaths related to AAA in women occur after age 80
Report 9000 annual deaths associated with large AAAs
Prevalence of AAA in men is estimated to be 4-9% and in women 1%. Almost all deaths from AAA rupture occur in men >65 years and in women >80 years of age.
Prevalence of a AAA >5cm in men 65-79 is 0.5%.
Strongest risk factor for rupture is maximal diameter.

72. Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening Methods of Screening
Exam
Ultrasonography
CT scan
MRI
Interventions
Observation and repeat study
Surgical Repair Ultrasonography has a sensitivity of 95% and specificity of nearly 100% when performed in a setting with adequate quality assurance.
Open Surgical Repair remains the only proven method of decreased AAA mortality in the long term, Endovascular Aneurysm Repair is now frequently used.
EVAR has lower short-term mortality rate 1%. Conversion to open procedure is about 2%. If converted to open mortality is 24%.
Operative mortality for open surgical repair of an AAA is 4% to 5%, and nearly one-third of patients undergoing this surgery have other important complications (e.g., cardiac and pulmonary). Additionally, men having this surgery are at increased risk for impotence.
Open Repair in-hospital mortality to be 4.2%. Complication rate of elective surgery approx. 32% (including graft infection, MI, renal failure, and other forms of ischemia)
