摘要
背景和目的：特应性皮炎（AD）影响患者及其家人的生活质量。本研究以调查为基础，旨在了解埃及和黎巴嫩医生对特应性皮炎患者现有教育计划和支持项目的看法，并辅以社交分析研究，更全面地了解社交媒体用户对特应性皮炎的看法。 调查方法调查对象包括来自埃及和黎巴嫩的 200 名医生，包括初级保健医生、家庭医生、儿科医生和皮肤科医生。社交分析研究利用人工智能分析了该地区的 1 亿个网站，识别了与注意力缺失症相关的术语。 研究结果医生调查发现，埃及和黎巴嫩在注意力缺失症的认识和教育方面存在差距，为患者提供的教育计划和数字应用程序有限。在皮肤病管理中使用远程医疗方面，医生的看法各不相同。根据社交分析研究，有关注意力缺失症的在线讨论主要来自埃及，内容涉及病因、诊断、管理和注意力缺失症患者的治疗历程。讨论内容包括有关培训计划、AD 相关医疗保健计划和药物批准的新闻。一些作者、美容诊所和制造商积极宣传自己的服务和产品。患者积极参与有关自我保健和自然疗法的在线讨论，分享他们与 AD 患者共同生活的经验。值得注意的是，一些作者分享和宣传了大量错误和不准确的信息。 结论有关注意力缺失症的教育对患者和医护人员至关重要。虽然社交媒体为提高患者参与度提供了机会，但错误信息的盛行也带来了巨大挑战。解决与教育和辨别错误信息相关的问题，对于在该地区实现 AD 管理的最佳结果至关重要。
Patient Awareness, Education, and Support for Atopic Dermatitis in Egypt and Lebanon: Results of a Physician Survey and Social Analytics
Background and Aim: Atopic dermatitis (AD) impacts the quality of life of patients and their families. This survey-based study aimed to understand the perspectives of physicians in Egypt and Lebanon regarding available educational initiatives and support programs for patients with AD, which was complemented by the social analytics study, offering a more comprehensive understanding of the perceptions of AD among social media users.
Methods: The survey included 200 physicians, comprising primary care physicians, family medicine physicians, pediatricians, and dermatologists from Egypt and Lebanon. The social analytics study leveraged artificial intelligence to analyze 100 million websites across the region, identifying mentions of AD-related terminologies.
Results: The physician survey uncovered gaps in AD awareness and education in Egypt and Lebanon, with limited educational initiatives and digital applications available for patients. The perceptions of physicians varied regarding the use of telemedicine in dermatological disease management. According to the social analytics study, online discussions about AD predominantly originated from Egypt, featuring educational content on causes, diagnosis, management, and AD patient journey. Discussions included news about training programs, AD-related healthcare initiatives, and drug approvals. Some authors, beauty clinics, and manufacturers actively promoted their services and products. Patients actively engaged in online discussions on self-care and natural remedies, sharing their experiences of living with AD. Notably, there were substantial volumes of incorrect and inaccurate information being shared and promoted by some authors.
Conclusion: Education about AD is crucial for patients and healthcare professionals. While social media offers opportunities for increased patient engagement, the prevalence of misinformation poses a significant challenge. Addressing issues related to education and discerning misinformation is essential for achieving optimal outcomes in the management of AD within the region.
期刊介绍：
Dermatologic Therapy has been created to fill an important void in the dermatologic literature: the lack of a readily available source of up-to-date information on the treatment of specific cutaneous diseases and the practical application of specific treatment modalities. Each issue of the journal consists of a series of scholarly review articles written by leaders in dermatology in which they describe, in very specific terms, how they treat particular cutaneous diseases and how they use specific therapeutic agents. The information contained in each issue is so practical and detailed that the reader should be able to directly apply various treatment approaches to daily clinical situations. Because of the specific and practical nature of this publication, Dermatologic Therapy not only serves as a readily available resource for the day-to-day treatment of patients, but also as an evolving therapeutic textbook for the treatment of dermatologic diseases.
