Quality and reliability of anterior cruciate ligament injury-related short Chinese videos on Bilibili and TikTok: Cross-sectional study.

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
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the quality and reliability of information presented in short videos related to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries on two major Chinese social media platforms, TikTok and Bilibili. Methods: A systematic search using the keyword "ACL injuries" was conducted to identify the top 100 Chinese videos on TikTok and Bilibili, respectively. The Global Quality Score (GQS) and the modified DISCERN evaluation scale were employed to assess video content reliability and quality. Videos characteristics-including engagement metrics, uploader identity, video length, and content type-were also gathered. Statistical analyses were conducted to examine differences and correlations between platforms, uploader categories, and video quality. Results: Out of 200 videos reviewed, 175 met inclusion criteria. The most common content theme was treatment, found in 59 videos (33.71%). TikTok videos attracted higher user engagement than Bilibili. However, the overall video quality on both platforms was moderate. TikTok videos scored higher on GQS and modified DISCERN than on Bilibili. Engagement on TikTok showed no positive correlation with content quality, while that on Bilibili demonstrated a moderate positive correlation. Videos uploaded by healthcare professionals were more popular but often tended to be shorter in duration. Notably, videos uploaded by individual users often achieved quality scores comparable to, or even exceeding, those of medical professionals and science communicators. Conclusion: TikTok demonstrated higher engagement than Bilibili, but both platforms showed limited quality and reliability in ACL injury-related video content. No strong correlation was observed between video content quality and engagement. These findings highlight the need for improved oversight of ACL injury-related information disseminated through short video platforms in China.
