Content accuracy and reliability of pulmonary nodule information on social media platforms: a cross-platform study of YouTube, Bilibili, and TikTok
Long-form platforms (YouTube and Bilibili) offer higher-quality PN information but lower engagement, whereas short-form platforms (TikTok) show high interaction but lower informational depth. Social media can play a supportive role in public PN education. We provide recommendations for creators, platforms, and viewers to improve the quality and reliability of medical content.
