About The Study: In this nested case-control study, completing fecal immunochemical test was associated with a lower risk of overall death from colorectal cancer, particularly in the left colon, and the associations were observed across racial and ethnic groups. These findings support the use of fecal immunochemical test in population-based screening strategies.
