Variable is included in the multiple imputation. Recorded missingness for a variable is indicated with a “Missing” label. Additional variables used in multiple imputation included: instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), patient-reported Karnofsky Performance Status, HADS Anxiety Score, SF-36 Score, healthcare utilization in the year prior to enrollment, travel time from home to urology office, and NMIBC stage/grade.
Variable is included in the multivariable model for Treatment Burden Questionnaire. The SF-36 Score was also used in the multivariable model.
