Hematopoietic stem cell donation in social media: Content analysis of YouTube videos.
Article in Transfusion, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to identify how hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) donation is portrayed in YouTube content and analyze the characteristics of these materials. STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsA search was conducted on YouTube using the terms "hematopoietic stem cell" and "donation" in the Korean language, yielding 113 videos for analysis. General characteristics (video length and view counts) and video attributes (uploader types, speakers, donation methods, and content purpose) were analyzed. Content analysis was performed to examine the topics covered and experiences portrayed in the videos.
resultsPersonal uploaders contributed the largest proportion of videos (39.82%), with laypersons being the predominant speakers (52.21%). In information delivery videos, the necessity of donation and transplantation was the most frequently mentioned theme, while positive emotions after donation were the predominant theme in experience-sharing videos. Both informal and official videos presented diverse content regarding HSC donation. DISCUSSION: YouTube serves as an effective platform for disseminating HSC donation information through both informal and official channels, though content could be enhanced by providing more comprehensive coverage of critical aspects such as post-donation care and commitment implications.
