TL;DR: It is suggested that a broader conceptualization and measurement of shared decision-making would provide a more substantive evidence base to guide implementation, and that well-informed preference-based patient decisions might lead to safer, more cost-effective healthcare, which in turn might result in reduced utilization rates and improved health outcomes.

TL;DR: Assessment of factors associated with U.S. women's awareness of HPV and knowledge about its link to cervical cancer found accurate knowledge of the HPV-cervical cancer link was associated with abnormal Pap and positive HPV test results.

TL;DR: Although infrequently studied, organizational- and system-level characteristics appear to play a role in the failure to implement SDM in routine care.

TL;DR: A lower proportion of PCPs recommend extending screening intervals to 3 years with an HPV cotest than those screening with the Pap test alone, and physician specialty was strongly associated with guideline-consistent recommendations for the next Pap or HPV test.

TL;DR: Most US men report little shared decision making in PSA screening, and the lack of shared decisionMaking is more prevalent in nonscreened than in screened men.
