Adapting patient priorities care for older adults with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: A qualitative inquiry.
Article in Urologic oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionShared decision-making involves understanding a person's goals and healthcare preferences, especially for older adults with cancer. When making treatment decisions, older adults with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) face tradeoffs due to aging and multimorbidity. Our objective was to obtain initial feedback from older adults with NMIBC and their urologists to begin adapting an existing written goal-elicitation tool, Patient Priorities Care (PPC), for shared decision-making in NMIBC.
methodsWe recruited 5 dyads of older adults with NMIBC (age ≥65) paired with their urologists to use PPC and collected demographics. Patients also completed a frailty assessment. Qualitative interviews with participants were conducted to assess modifications needed (n = 10). We calculated descriptive statistics of quantitative data and used Braun and Clarke's six-phase framework and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis to analyze interview transcripts.
resultsMean patient age was 76.4 years, and all were males and frail. Urologists had been in practice for an average of 14.8 years. Four themes emerged from the interviews: 1) PPC should be administered periprocedurally and at multiple time points, 2) PPC was appropriate but modifications were needed to the format and to make it specific to NMIBC, 3) PPC helped urologists learn about their patients, and 4) age, multimorbidity, and urinary symptoms contributed to NMIBC treatment decisions.
conclusionsIn this pilot qualitative study, participants found PPC easy to use with appropriate content, but it required modifications for format and specificity for NMIBC. Next steps include focus groups to further adapt PPC followed by feasibility testing in the clinic.
