This study aimed to describe the content of YouTube videos about cleft lip and palate (CLP) and to describe the sentiment analysis of related comments.
Retrospective, YouTube video, and sentiment analysis.
YouTube videos (N = 112) about CLP were examined, including demographics and ratings of quality and usefulness. Comments on CLP (N = 205) were classified by content, and measured from negative (-5) to positive (+5) with a sentiment analysis program.
Videos were uploaded most often by universities and hospitals (25%) and health information sites (22%). Most videos were educational (49.1%) or described patient experiences (48.2%). The most frequent video topics were terminology, CLP treatment, and prenatal diagnosis information. Based on the comprehensiveness of CLP topics covered, videos were generally rated by authors as moderately useful (31.5%) or very useful (35.7%). Comments were mostly made by people with CLP (79%), and the median sentiment scores were +3, and -2 for positive and negative sentiments, respectively. General content categories were positive comments (24.8%), provided information about themselves (24.4%), negative comments (19.5%), comments on usefulness of video (17.6%), or advice (9.3%). While 36.1% of comments noted no difficulties, the remaining comments included difficulties with surgery pain (13.2%), psychological state (12.2%), embarrassment (11.7%), physical appearance (10.2%), long term therapy (9.8%), and speech problems (6.8%).
Although useful and educational YouTube videos were available, the variability of content quality suggests that caution be used in relying on videos for information and that experts in CLP treatment should be consulted.
本研究旨在描述关于唇腭裂（CLP）的 YouTube 视频内容，并描述相关评论的情感分析。
回顾性、YouTube 视频和情感分析。
检查了 112 个关于 CLP 的 YouTube 视频，包括人口统计学信息以及对质量和有用性的评分。使用情感分析程序对 CLP 的评论（N=205）进行分类，并从负（-5）到正（+5）进行测量。
视频主要由大学和医院（25%）和健康信息网站（22%）上传。大多数视频是教育性的（49.1%）或描述患者经历的（48.2%）。最常见的视频主题是术语、CLP 治疗和产前诊断信息。根据涵盖的 CLP 主题的全面性，作者对视频的评分通常为中等有用（31.5%）或非常有用（35.7%）。评论大多由唇腭裂患者（79%）发表，中位数情感评分为+3，正面和负面情感的中位数评分为+2 和-2。一般内容类别为正面评论（24.8%）、提供有关自身信息的评论（24.4%）、负面评论（19.5%）、对视频有用性的评论（17.6%）或建议（9.3%）。尽管 36.1%的评论表示没有困难，但其余评论包括手术疼痛（13.2%）、心理状态（12.2%）、尴尬（11.7%）、外表（10.2%）、长期治疗（9.8%）和言语问题（6.8%）的困难。
虽然有有用且教育性的 YouTube 视频，但内容质量的可变性表明在依赖视频获取信息时应谨慎，并应咨询 CLP 治疗方面的专家。
