Core Tip	The present study investigated the asso-ciation between inflammatory markers and risk of colorectal adenoma. Ten studies on C-reactive protein (CRP) showed non-significant summary odds ratios in the general analysis. However, CRP was significantly correlated with increased risk of advanced adenoma. Subgroup and stratified analyses revealed a potential influence of smoking status and aspirin use on the association between CRP levels and colorectal adenoma risk. The results of the study may have practical value for clinicians screening for colorectal cancer.
