Conclusions Golytely was more efficacious than MiraLAX in bowel cleansing, and was independently associated with both bowel prep quality (BBPS≥7) and higher adenoma detection. Golytely should be used as first line for bowel prep for colonoscopy. Studies with larger populations are needed to ...

Conclusions BMI < 30 was an indepedent risk factor for bowel prep quality but not for adenoma detection. Bowel prep quality was higher with Golytely in both BMI categories. Tailored bowel prep regimens based on BMI is not recommended at this time....
