摘要

TikTok是一个受欢迎的社交媒体平台，越来越多地用于传播健康信息和个人经历，包括在患有疼痛的女性中。描述与健康有关的内容可以帮助了解公众的看法是如何形成的，并指导改善患者护理。尽管患有疼痛的女性经常在社交媒体上寻找信息，但人们对社交媒体上有关女性疼痛的内容知之甚少。本研究分析了抖音前100名女性疼痛视频的内容、特征和参与度指标。“女性的痛苦”是用TikTok的专有算法在TikTok上搜索的。共保留140个视频进行初步提取，并对前100个符合纳入标准的视频进行分析。对视频内容进行定性内容分析，形成15个内容类别。在这些类别中，66.6%（10/15）代表了具有负面基调的女性疼痛体验方面，包括“对疼痛的视觉描述”、“最小化/忽视/气化女性疼痛”、“无效的疼痛治疗”、“女性疼痛没有得到足够的调查”和“假设女性疼痛是由于月经、母性或心理健康问题”。描述性分析表明，排名前100的视频共有3.388亿次观看和3510万次点赞。大多数视频都是非医疗保健提供者的创作者（76.0%）。在所有内容类别中，“女性的痛苦不被他人理解”这一类别的参与度最高（15.0%）。总体而言，TikTok上有关女性疼痛的视频内容呈现出强烈的负面趋势。这些发现强调了改善女性疼痛护理的迫切需要。视角：本文报道了与女性痛苦有关的前100个TikTok视频的内容、特征和参与度指标。这些发现为临床医生和研究人员提供了关于女性疼痛经历的重要见解，并有可能为未来旨在改善女性疼痛管理的研究、教育和培训举措提供信息。

Viral voices: Depictions of women’s pain experiences on social media

TikTok is a popular social media platform increasingly used to disseminate health information and personal experiences, including among women with pain. Characterizing health-related content can help understand how public perceptions are shaped and guide improvements in patient care. Although women with pain often seek information on social media, little is known about social media content pertaining to women’s pain. In this study, the content, characteristics, and engagement metrics of the top 100 TikTok videos on women’s pain were analyzed. “Women’s pain” was searched on TikTok using TikTok’s proprietary algorithm. A total of 140 videos were retained for preliminary extraction, and the first 100 that met inclusion criteria were analyzed. Qualitative content analysis of video content was performed, leading to the development of 15 content categories. Of these categories, 66.6% (10/15) represented aspects of women’s pain experiences characterized as having a negative tone, including “visual depiction of being in pain,” “minimizing/dismissing/gaslighting women’s pain,” “ineffective pain treatment,” “women’s pain not being investigated enough,” and “assuming women’s pain is due to menstruation, motherhood, or mental health issues.” Descriptive analyses indicated that the top 100 videos had a combined 338.8 million views and 35.1 million likes. Most videos featured non-healthcare providers’ creators (76.0%). Across content categories, the highest engagement rates were observed for the category “women’s pain is not understood by others” (15.0%). Overall, strong negative trends were observed in TikTok video content pertaining to women’s pain. These findings underscore the urgent need for improved pain care for women experiencing pain.

Perspective

This article reports on the content, characteristics, and engagement metrics of the top 100 TikTok videos pertaining to women’s pain. These findings provide clinicians and researchers with important insights into women’s pain experiences and have the potential to inform future research, education, and training initiatives aimed at improving women’s pain management.
