Objective:

To assess the informational quality and reliability of short videos related to renal cell carcinoma (RCC) on Bilibili and TikTok, emphasizing the importance of accurate patient education.

Key Findings:
  • The majority of videos lacked high-quality and reliable information regarding RCC, with an average GQS score of X.
  • Videos from professional sources generally scored higher on quality and reliability assessments.
  • Content related to treatment and disease knowledge was more prevalent than prevention or news.
Interpretation:

The findings highlight a significant gap in the quality of RCC-related information on popular short-video platforms, emphasizing the need for improved content standards to enhance patient care.

Limitations:
  • The study only evaluated videos from two platforms, which may not represent all available information.
  • The assessment was limited to videos published within a specific timeframe, and potential biases in video selection and viewer demographics were not addressed.
Conclusion:

There is an urgent need for high-quality, reliable RCC-related content on short-video platforms to better inform patients and their families, suggesting that platforms implement stricter content guidelines.
