| Univariate logistic regression | 3.115 | (1.571, 6.176) | |
| Multivariate logistic regression | 3.874 | (1.870, 8.029) | |
| Effect of colonoscopy in the morning on excellent bowel preparation | |||

| 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, shorter run-way time, and colonoscopy in the morning on bowel preparation quality, respectively. | |||
