We reviewed 30 of the top-viewed Instagram videos using the hashtags #retinoid and #retinol to assess reliability using the DISCERN instrument. Dermatologists produced more accurate content than laypeople, though important details such as treatment risks were often omitted. Our findings highlight the need for health professionals to balance accessibility with accuracy to provide trustworthy dermatologic information on social media.
我们使用标签#类视黄醇和#视黄醇,对Instagram上浏览量最高的30个视频进行了审查,以使用DISCERN工具评估其可靠性。皮肤科医生提供的内容比非专业人士更准确,不过诸如治疗风险等重要细节常常被遗漏。我们的研究结果凸显了医疗专业人员需要在信息的可获取性和准确性之间取得平衡,以便在社交媒体上提供可靠的皮肤科信息。
