Lifting the Digital Curtain: Utilizing Social Media to Promote Health Content and Engage with Asian Populations.
Article in Journal of Asian health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/
aimsTo understand how social media can be used to improve Asian subgroup engagement in a research registry.
methodsA 10-week social media campaign was implemented with the goal of increasing the percentage of Asian participants in the Stanford Research Registry - platforms utilized include Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter through the Stanford Center for Asian Health Research and Education accounts. Participant data was disaggregated by race and ethnicity in order to better understand the diversity among Asian subgroups.
resultsThe percentage of Asian participants increased from 14.3% at baseline to 23.8% at the end of the campaign (525 Asian identifying individuals to 1,871). The greatest increase occurred during the general outreach phase which utilized all channels of outreach available. Frequencies of some ethnicities, such as Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese, were higher in the Multi-Ethnic and/or Multi-Racial categories compared to their corresponding monoethnic groups.
conclusionsSocial media is a powerful tool that can be leveraged for targeted recruitment - in this study we see how it can increase diversity amongst research participants and potentially be used as an effective tool for information dissemination. This work can be expanded in the future by examining other social media platforms more targeted toward Asian populations, and more thorough disaggregation to fully understand the diversity present in the Asian population.
