Brief Summary

The cecal intubation time (CIT) refers to the time required for the tip of the colonoscope to reach the cecum from passing through the anus. A prolonged CIT is considered a marker of difficulty in colonoscopy. CIT greater than 10 minutes is considered a difficult colonoscopy. Studies have identified factors that influence CIT, including age, gender, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, bowel preparation, prior abdominal surgery, etc. Personality traits have been found to be associated with the onset of many diseases, such as hypertension and A-type personality, depression and neurotic personality. According to the Big Five personality theory, personality can be decomposed into five dimensions: openness (O), conscientiousness (C), extraversion (E), agreeableness (A), and neuroticism (N). There is a lack of research on the association between personality traits and colonoscopy insertion time, and the purpose of this study is to investigate whether personality, BMI, age, gender, anxiety and depression index, metabolic diseases, and abdominal pelvic surgery history lead to prolonged colonoscopy insertion time and difficult colonoscopy, and to identify significant variables as predictors by using machine learning methods to build a clinical diagnostic model to predict colonoscopy insertion time and identify difficult colonoscopy patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The occurrence of difficult colonoscopy

  CIT(cecum insertion time) was applied to evaluate difficult colonoscopy, a prolonged CIT (\>10min) was considered difficult colonoscopy

  The evaluation of difficult colonoscopies was performed immediately after the patient completed the questionnaire at the next colonoscopy

Study Arms (2)

High neuroticism score group

The neuroticism score was higher than the average score identified by the norm

Other: Fill in personality questionnaires

Low neuroticism score group

The neuroticism score was lower than the average score identified by the norm

Other: Fill in personality questionnaires

Interventions

Fill in personality questionnaires OTHER

For patients who need to undergo colonoscopy, we invite them to fill out a personality survey questionnaire after obtaining their informed consent. The questionnaire contains 60 survey questions, which cover the five dimensions of the Big Five personality traits. Each question has five options, corresponding to the five states of very disagree to very agree. The questionnaire was developed based on the Chinese population and has four norms applicable to different age groups to ensure the reliability of the questionnaire.

High neuroticism score group; Low neuroticism score group

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 60 Years
• Sex: all
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64)
• Sampling Method: Probability Sample

Study Population

The study population consisted of patients who underwent colonoscopy at our hospital. They should meet the aforementioned inclusion criteria did not meet the exclusion criteria. Due to the widespread application of colonoscopy, the above patients may include patients suspected of having various organic or non-organic basic intestinal diseases, as well as health check-up patients.

You may qualify if:

• Colonoscopy patients tested 18 to 60 years old, men and women there is no limit
• Insert the cecum complete colonoscopy examination (successfully)
• Agree and complete personality questionnaire and anxiety depression

You may not qualify if:

• Maternal/pregnancy/lactation
• Has a history of colorectal resection of colorectal surgery
• Have organic diseases such as severe ulcerative colitis or intestinal tumors
• Inadequate bowel preparation (bowel with feces and less than 90% visible area of mucosa)
• Confirmed with the immune system (SLE), nervous system (Alzheimer's disease), mental system (such as schizophrenia, depression), urinary system disease (CKD), and other digestive system disease
• Unable or unwilling to sign informed consent
