Table 3 Logistic regression analyses regarding the effect of shorter S-C and colonoscopy in the morning on bowel preparation quality in the training cohort.
| Outcomes | OR | 95% CI | P value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Effect of shorter S-C on adequate bowel preparation | |||
| Univariate logistic regression | 4.884 | (1.619, 14.731) | |
| Multivariate logistic regression | 5.112 | (1.676, 15.586) | |
| Effect of shorter S-C on excellent bowel preparation | |||
| Univariate logistic regression | 2.532 | (1.646, 3.896) | |
| Multivariate logistic regression | 2.888 | (1.843, 4.527) | |
| Effect of colonoscopy in the morning on adequate bowel preparation | |||
| Univariate logistic regression | 5.969 | (1.978, 18.011) | |
| Multivariate logistic regression | 5.723 | (1.877, 17.448) | |
| Effect of colonoscopy in the morning on excellent bowel preparation | |||
| Univariate logistic regression | 2.344 | (1.518, 3.619) | |
| Multivariate logistic regression | 2.487 | (1.589, 3.893) | |
| S-C – time interval between oral simethicone and the start of colonoscopy; OR – odd ratio; CI – confidence interval; BBPS – Boston Bowel Preparation Scale. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed by adjusting for age, gender, BMI, and abnormal defecation for exploring the effect of shorter S-C and colonoscopy in the morning on bowel preparation quality, respectively. | |||
