Social media use and perceptions among pathologists in Turkey: a national survey.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 2026. 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
objectiveThe use of social media is rapidly expanding worldwide. In parallel with the development of digital pathology, the use of digital social media platforms in the field of pathology has also increased. However, as with many other groups, pathologists still have some concerns about using social media. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency and purposes of social media use among pathologists in their professional and personal lives.
methodsThis study was conducted using an online survey designed via Google Forms and distributed among pathologists. The questionnaire collected data on participant demographics, the frequency and purposes of social media use, and its application in pathology education and practice.
resultsA total of 124 pathologists participated in the study. All participants reported using social media in their daily lives. Among them, 101 (81.5%) indicated that they also used social media for pathology-related purposes. The platform considered most useful for pathology practice was X (formerly Twitter) (35.6%). Additionally, 98% of participants believed that social media could be beneficial for pathology education.
conclusionDespite potential sampling bias, our study indicates that among digitally connected pathologists in Turkey, social media, particularly X, is widely adopted as a valuable tool for professional education and practice.
