Medical media is changing along with the rest of the media landscape. One of the more interesting ways that medical media is evolving is the increased role of social media in medical media's creation, curation and distribution. Twitter, a microblogging site, has become a central hub for finding, vetting, and spreading this content among doctors. We have created a Twitter journal club for nephrology that primarily provides post-publication peer review of high impact nephrology articles, but additionally helps Twitter users build a network of engaged people with interests in academic nephrology. By following participants in the nephrology journal club, users are able to stock their personal learning network. In this essay we discuss the history of medical media, the role of Twitter in the current states of media and summarize our initial experience with a Twitter journal club.
医学媒体正与其他媒体领域一同发生变化。医学媒体演变的一种较为有趣的方式是社交媒体在医学媒体的创作、管理和传播中所起的作用日益增强。微博网站推特已成为医生们查找、审核和传播此类内容的核心平台。我们创建了一个肾脏病学推特期刊俱乐部，该俱乐部主要对高影响力的肾脏病学文章进行发表后同行评审，但此外还帮助推特用户建立一个对学术肾脏病学感兴趣的活跃人群网络。通过关注肾脏病学期刊俱乐部的参与者，用户能够充实自己的个人学习网络。在本文中，我们将讨论医学媒体的历史、推特在当前媒体状态下的作用，并总结我们在推特期刊俱乐部的初步经验。
