Abstract

Purpose: To depict and evaluate the characteristics, engagement, content, and quality of YouTube videos containing information about silver diamine fluoride (SDF).

Methods: A total of 200 YouTube™ videos were selected and screened, and the video characteristics and engagement indicators were recorded. They were then reviewed for consistency with current professional guidelines on this topic. Two independent reviewers scored the videos using a customized 8-point scoring and 5-point Global Quality Scale (GQS) to assess the content information and the overall quality of each video. These videos were further classified into good, moderate, and poor videos. Kruskal-Wallis, Chi-squared, and Spearman's correlation tests were used for the statistical analysis.

Results: 110 videos met the inclusion criteria. The median total content score was 3 (IQR = 4) and the median GQS score was 2 (IQR = 2). Less than half (n = 49; 45.5%) of the videos were uploaded by healthcare professionals. The video content was classified as good (n = 26; 23.64%), moderate (n = 43; 39.09%), and poor (n = 41; 37.27%). Good-quality videos have a significantly higher information content score than the other groups (P = 0.001). A strong correlation was found between the total content score and GQS score (rho = 0.970, P = 0.001). Longer duration, higher interaction index, and recent upload are associated with higher content and quality scores.

Conclusion: A considerable number of videos are available on YouTube about SDF treatment and are attracting public interest. The content and quality of these videos vary widely and are related to several factors.

将 YouTube 作为家长了解二胺氟化银的信息来源。

目的：描述并评估YouTube视频的特征、参与度、内容和质量，其中包含有关二胺氟化银（SDF）的信息：方法：共选择和筛选了 200 个 YouTube™ 视频，并记录了视频特征和参与度指标。然后对这些视频进行审核，以确保其与当前有关该主题的专业指南保持一致。两名独立审查员使用定制的 8 点评分法和 5 点全球质量量表 (GQS) 对视频进行评分，以评估每段视频的内容信息和整体质量。这些视频被进一步分为良好、中等和较差视频。统计分析采用了 Kruskal-Wallis、Chi-squared 和 Spearman 相关性检验：110部视频符合纳入标准。内容总分的中位数为 3（IQR = 4），GQS 分数的中位数为 2（IQR = 2）。不到一半的视频（n = 49；45.5%）是由医护人员上传的。视频内容分为良好（n = 26; 23.64%）、中等（n = 43; 39.09%）和较差（n = 41; 37.27%）。优质视频的信息内容得分明显高于其他组别（P = 0.001）。内容总分与 GQS 分数之间存在很强的相关性（rho = 0.970，P = 0.001）。较长的持续时间、较高的互动指数和最近上传的视频与较高的内容和质量得分相关：YouTube上有大量关于SDF治疗的视频，并引起了公众的兴趣。这些视频的内容和质量差异很大，与多个因素有关。

期刊介绍： The aim and scope of European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry (EAPD) is to promote research in all aspects of dentistry for children, including interceptive orthodontics and studies on children and young adults with special needs. The EAPD focuses on the publication and critical evaluation of clinical and basic science research related to children. The EAPD will consider clinical case series reports, followed by the relevant literature review, only where there are new and important findings of interest to Paediatric Dentistry and where details of techniques or treatment carried out and the success of such approaches are given.
