“…Individuals in their 50s and 60s are less likely to participate and share content across SMP actively ( 26 ).In contrast, their younger counterparts are more likely to share their experiences and utilize SMP as a means of networking with other individuals that share similar interests ( 27 – 29 ). Since PC presents most commonly in men in the 6 th and 7 th decade of life, patients with PC represent the age group less likely to utilize SMP for obtaining and sharing information ( 28 ). Conversely, as users among SMP tend to be younger, PC-related content could prove most impactful among this audience by disseminating information concerning healthy habits and modifying risk factors to decrease PC incidence in later decades of life ( 29 – 31 ).…”

BackgroundSocial media platforms (SMP) are an emerging resource that allows physicians, patients, and families to converse on cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. We aimed to characterize penile cancer (PC) content shared on SMP.MethodsWe searched PC posts on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram from July 1st, 2021, through June 30th, 2022. Two independent, blinded reviewers analyzed the hashtags: #PenileCancer, #PenileCancerAwareness, and #PenileNeoplasm. Descriptive statistics were used for posts characterization, Pearson´s correlation coefficient for associations, and Cohen’s weighted kappa coefficient for inter-rater agreement rate.ResultsA total of 791 posts were analyzed, with Twitter accounting for 52%, Facebook for 12.2%, and Instagram for 35.5%, and. Most posts originated from high-income countries, such as the United Kingdom (48.8%). We found no correlation between the number of posts with PC incidence (p = 0.64) or users on SMP (p = 0.27). Most accounts were classified as “support and awareness communities” (43.6%) and “physicians and clinical researchers” (38.2%). Urology was the most common medical specialty to post (60.9%), followed by oncology (11.3%). Most posts were classified as “prevention and awareness for users” (45.1%). Global inter-reviewer agreement rate was almost perfect (k=0.95; p ≤ 0.01). On Twitter, “physicians and clinical researchers” shared more content on “treatment updates and medical papers published in medical journals,” while on Facebook and Instagram, “support and awareness communities” focused on “personal and support comments.”ConclusionOverall, the number of PC posts was low compared to other neoplasms across the SMP evaluated in this study. “Physicians and clinical researchers” shared more content on Twitter, while “support and awareness communities” on Facebook and Instagram. Encouraging the use of a common SMP among the medical community and general users could lead to a more effective communication between physicians, patients, and support groups, and to increased awareness of PC.

“…Penelitian menurut Georgiev (2023), menyatakan bahwa rata-rata durasi penggunaan sosial media pada kelompok lansia yaitu 4 jam perhari, sesuai dengan penelitian Loipha (2014), yang menyatakan bahwa rata-rata durasi penggunaan sosial media pada lansia di Thailand adalah 4 jam perhari. Penelitian Warwas (2021), menyatakan bahwa rata-rata frekuensi penggunaan sosial media pada kelompok lansia adalah minimal 5 kali perhari. Sesuai dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Jia (2022), yang menyatakan bahwa setiap lansia pengguna sosial media di China membuka sosial media rata-rata 5 kali perhari.…”

Abstract The increasing number of elderly people requires attention so they can enjoy a prosperous life in their later years.
