From #cervicalcancerscreening to #LEEP - Quality and accuracy of cervical cancer content on TikTok.
Article in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objectives: Many reproductive-aged individuals use social media platforms to gather medical advice or find community. TikTok is one of the fastest growing social media platforms and used by many reproductive-aged individuals. Methods: We evaluated the top 100 English-language videos on cervical cancer screening and dysplasia treatment for relevance to the hashtag and content quality and accuracy. Results: Among the included videos, most of the content highlighted patients' personal experiences and provided little medical educational value. Notably, the videos created by medical professionals were higher quality and more often contained accurate health information. Conclusions: This study highlights the need to increase content quality on TikTok to raise awareness and uptake for cervical cancer screening and treatment in reproductive-aged individuals.
