Among obese patients only, activation of CTNNB1 was associated with better colorectal cancer-specific survival and overall survival.

These molecular pathological epidemiology findings suggest that the effects of alterations in the WNT-CTNNB1 pathway on outcome are modified by BMI and physical activity.
