1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Short-video platforms increasingly disseminate health information. This study evaluated the content, quality, reliability, and transparency of acute leukemia (AL)-related videos on Douyin and Bilibili. On August 27, 2025, algorithm-ranked search results were sequentially screened, and the first 100 eligible videos from each platform were included, reflecting prominently exposed eligible content rather than the full AL-related video population. Video characteristics, engagement metrics, uploader identity, and content categories were recorded. Quality, reliability, and transparency were assessed using the Global Quality Score (GQS), modified DISCERN, and Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) benchmark criteria. Group differences were analyzed using nonparametric tests, and associations between engagement and quality were examined using Spearman correlation and multivariable ordinal logistic regression. Inter-rater reliability was assessed using weighted and unweighted Cohen's kappa. A total of 200 videos were analyzed. Median scores were 3.00 for GQS, 1.50 for modified DISCERN, and 1.50 for Journal of the American Medical Association. Clinical manifestations and treatment were commonly covered, whereas prevention and etiology were underrepresented. Videos uploaded by blood disease-related experts had significantly higher quality and reliability scores. On Douyin, engagement metrics were negatively associated with GQS in correlation analyses, but this association was no longer significant after adjustment for uploader type, video duration, and days since upload (adjusted odds ratio = 0.97, 95% confidence interval: 0.92-1.02, P = .18). Inter-rater reliability was substantial to almost perfect. Algorithm-exposed AL-related videos on Douyin and Bilibili showed suboptimal quality and reliability. Uploader identity, rather than engagement, was more closely associated with information quality. Findings are limited to prominently exposed videos retrieved on one date.
