ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Patients increasingly search for dermatological information on YouTube; however, the successful presence of dermatologists on this platform is limited. Audience retention is essential to ensure success, as the YouTube algorithm considers it to rank videos. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study in dermatology that focuses on audience retention on YouTube. It is based on a real-life dermatologist-led channel. AIM: To determine factors that influence audience retention on a dermatologist-led YouTube channel and provide insights that can help dermatologists create engaging content that becomes successful. METHODS: This research studied 137 videos. First, multiple linear regression was performed to test whether the specific video characteristics significantly predicted audience retention. Second, moments of peak retention (spikes) were identified, and their content was analysed to determine what was particularly interesting for viewers. As the videos were educational, spikes were classified into conceptual or procedural knowledge. RESULTS: The average audience retention was 41.7%. Longer video length and increasing number of days from release had a negative and significant effect on audience retention, with the effect of video length (ß = -0.6979; P < 0.001) being strong and that of days from release being weak (ß = -0.1948; P = 0.02). Spikes were observed in 76 videos (55.5%), 68.2% of which were classified as procedural knowledge. CONCLUSION: These data indicate that audience retention increases as video length decreases, and that viewers are essentially interested in practical information. Consequently, to increase audience retention, dermatologists should design succinct videos and deliver procedural knowledge that creates value for the public.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Dermatological information on social media is dominated by misleading and potentially harmful content from nonexperts. Literature suggests that, to address this issue, dermatologists should develop an online presence. However, the successful presence of dermatologists on social media has been criticized for focusing on cosmetic dermatology and not representing the broad spectrum of the specialty. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to systematically analyze which dermatological topics interest the public most, and to find out whether it is feasible for a dermatologist to become influential on social media while presenting all dermatological topics equally. METHODS: The study was performed on an educational dermatology YouTube channel. The 101 videos published in a two-year period were divided into cosmetic (51 videos) and medical dermatology (50 videos). Student's t-test was conducted to determine whether there were significant differences in views. Medical dermatology videos were then classified into three categories: Acne, facial dermatoses (excluding acne) and other dermatological diseases. A Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare these three categories and cosmetic dermatology. RESULTS: When comparing cosmetic and medical dermatology, no significant differences were found. When comparing the four categories, cosmetic dermatology and acne were found to generate significantly more views that other dermatological diseases. CONCLUSIONS: The public seems to be particularly interested in cosmetic dermatology and acne. This might make it challenging to become successful on social media while presenting a balanced portrayal of dermatology. However, focusing on popular topics can provide a real chance to be influential and protect vulnerable people from misinformation.

ABSTRACT

The presence of dermatological information on social media has grown exponentially over the last two decades. Consequently, the recent literature on this topic is abundant. Many authors have highlighted that social media constitutes a unique opportunity for patient education. Additionally, numerous other benefits of these platforms have been reported. However, other authors have focused on the potential risks that these networks involve. The main concerns are patient confidentiality, legal considerations, and ethical issues. Therefore, we stand at a crossroads where the many advantages of social media use in dermatology seem to be underestimated due to the presence of potential drawbacks. At this point, we propose that a systematic review of the positive and negative aspects of using social media in dermatology is necessary. We carried out a comprehensive systematic review dating from inception to July 2021. Finally, 161 articles were included. Fifteen benefits, 11 drawbacks and 10 challenges of social media use in dermatology were identified and discussed. Suggested strategies to address the identified drawbacks were provided. Overall, while there are risks to using social media, they are outnumbered by their benefits. Therefore, dermatologists should embrace this opportunity to educate patients and aim to create rigorous and engaging content.

ABSTRACT

Dos mujeres de 31 y 27 años acudieron a nuestra consulta por presentar brotes de lesiones eritematovioláceas en cara superoexterna de muslos coincidiendo con las épocas más frías del año. Fueron diagnosticadas de eritrocianosis, entidad incluida en el amplio grupo de las criodermatosis, pero diferenciable tanto de la paniculitis por frío como de la perniosis (AU)

ABSTRACT

Se realiza un estudio epidemiológico de los pacientes diagnosticados de dermatofitosis, confirmada mediante cultivo, observados en nuestra unidad de Micología del Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valladolid, durante el período transcurrido entre enero de 2000 y mayo de 2001. Los datos son analizados en relación a distintas variables como edad, sexo, época de aparición, localización de la lesión, agente etiológico identificado y forma clínica. Presentamos un total de 40 pacientes con clínica y cultivo positivo para dermatofitos. De ellos, 14 correspondían a Tinea corporis, 10 a Tinea pedis, 9 a Tinea unguium, 6 a Tinea cruris, 2 a Tinea capitis, 2 a Tinea manuum y 1 a Tinea barbae. Los dermatofitos aislados con mayor frecuencia fueron Trichophyton mentagrophytes (37%), T. rubrum (32%), Microsporum canis (17%), T. tonsurans (8%), M. gypseum (3%) y M. audouinii (3%). M. canis predominó en T. corporis y fue responsable de los dos casos de T. capitis. En Tinea unguium se aíslan T. mentagrophytes y T. rubrum, y esta última especie predomina en Tinea pedis. Presentamos los resultados obtenidos, que coinciden básicamente con los de otros estudios, para contribuir a la realización de un mapa epidemiológico de las micosis superficiales en España (AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la importancia de las secuelas cutáneas en la valoración del daño corporal es una realidad de creciente interés poco conocida por el dermatólogo. Material y métodos: además de la investigación bibliográfica y legal, se realizó un estudio jurisprudencial de las sentencias comprendidas entre 1995 y 1998 en las Audiencias Provinciales de Castilla y León, Cantabria y La Rioja. De un total de 4.073 sentencias analizamos 169 casos, en los que se establecen indemnizaciones por secuelas cutáneas postraumáticas. Resultados: las descripciones judiciales de las secuelas cutáneas son claramente insuficientes. Tan sólo en el 24% de los casos existía una descripción, más o menos precisa, de las lesiones. Se hacía referencia a la afectación estética de la víctima en el 67% de las sentencias. Un 23% de sentencias incluían la valoración de daños corporales y un 4% la valoración concreta de secuelas cutáneas. Es de destacar la importancia económica que supone el daño corporal cutáneo, ya que en el 38% de los casos estudiados el porcentaje de indemnización por cicatrices cutáneas suponía más del 50% del total. Las cantidades medias que se están abonando 'por cicatriz' en el período y lugar objeto de estudio es de 310.382 pesetas. Conclusiones: para una más ajustada valoración de los daños corporales cutáneos, la Dermatología Médico-Quirúrgica debe intervenir en este campo, a través de la formación de médicos forenses y valoradores del daño corporal, para valorar directamente estas secuelas cuando revistan especial importancia y aportando las posibilidades terapéuticas en cada situación (AU)

ABSTRACT

Una mujer de 30 años consultó por unas lesiones cutáneas liquenoides que aparecieron tras unos días de exposición solar y se localizaban en zonas fotoexpuestas, sin relación aparente con ningún sensibilizante tópico ni sistémico. Con el empleo de fotoprotectores y corticosteroides tópicos las lesiones desaparecieron en pocas semanas y no han aparecido recurrencias en los 2 años siguientes. Discutimos la terminología empleada para designar a esta entidad, su espectro clínico e histológico y algunos aspectos relacionados con la fotoinducción de las lesiones (AU)
