Multivariable Cox regression models were used to estimate the association between low-dose aspirin use and CRC risk. In addition, we calculated the number of CRC potentially averted by low-dose aspirin use.  \n1Department of Research, Cancer Registry of Norway, National Institute of Public Health, Oslo, Norway; 2Oslo Centre for Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Department of Biostatistics, Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway; 3Section for Colorectal Cancer Screening, Cancer Registry of Norway, National Institute of Public Health, Oslo, Norway; 4Department of Research and Development, Telemark Hospital Trust, Skien, Norway; 5 Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway; 6Department of Medical Epidemiology, Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri IRCCS, Milan, Italy.

During the median follow-up of 10.9 years, 579,196 (26.5%) used low-dose aspirin, and38,577(1.8%)were diagnosed with CRC. Current use of aspirin vs never use was associated with lower CRC risk (hazard ratio [HR] 0 .87, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0 .84–0.90) . The association was more pronounced for metastatic CRC (HR 0.79; 95% CI 0.74–0.84) than regionally advanced(HR0.89;95%CI0.85–0.92)and localized CRC(HR0.93;95%CI0.87–1.00; P heterogeneity 5 0.001) . A significant trend was found between duration of current use and CRC risk: HR 0.91 (95% CI 0.86–0.95) for \u003C3 years, HR 0.85 (0.80–0.91) for ‡3 and \u003C5 years, and HR 0.84 (0.80–0.88) for ‡5 years of use vs never use (P trend \u003C 0.001) . For past use, HR were 0.89 (95% CI 0.84–0.94) for \u003C3 years, 0.90 (0.83–0.99) for ‡3 and \u003C5 years, and 0.98 (0.91–1.06) for ‡5 years since last use vs never use(P-trend \u003C 0.001). We estimated that aspirin use averted1,073cases ofCRC (95% CI 818–1,338) in the study period.  \nDISCUSSION: In this nationwide cohort, use of low-dose aspirin was associated with a lower risk of CRC.  \nKEYWORDS: aspirin; incidence; colorectal cancer; cohort study  \nSUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL accompanies this paper at [http://links.lww.com/AJG/D194](http://links.lww.com/AJG/D194) , [http://links.lww.com/AJG/D195](http://links.lww.com/AJG/D195) , and [http://links.lww.com/AJG/D196](http://links.lww.com/AJG/D196)  \nAm J Gastroenterol 2024;119:1402–1411.

Public health strategies aiming to ease this burden include developing screening programs for prevention and early detection ofCRC(2,3)and raising awareness about harmful lifestyle habits that increase CRC risk, including physical inactivity, overweight and obesity, alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, and poor diet (4","cbCaik7Vttdq8Gzh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik7Vttdq8Gzh","pdf",661192,"English","# Introduction\n# Methods\n# Results\n# Discussion\n# Keywords","[{\"question\":\"What is the primary research question of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study examines the association between low-dose aspirin use and the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC).\"},{\"question\":\"How was the nationwide cohort study conducted?\",\"answer\":\"Individuals aged 50 or older residing in Norway for at least 6 months during 2004–2018 were identified and linked to national registers for prescriptions, cancer occurrence, and sociodemographic factors.
