Abstract：
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to analyze the quality of videos on YouTube as educational resources about uveitis.
METHODS: An online YouTube search was performed using the keyword \"uveitis\". Total view counts, duration of videos, publishing dates, likes and dislikes, numbers of comments, and source of videos were recorded. The quality and accuracy of the video\'s educational content were evaluated using the DISCERN score, Global Quality Score (GQS), and Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) score. Video power index (VPI) was used to evaluate both the view and the like ratio of the videos. All videos were classified according to publishers and types of categories.
RESULTS: From among the 200 videos analyzed, 94 were included. The mean DISCERN score was 38.5 ± 13.2 (poor), the mean JAMA score was 1.8 ± 0.6 (fair), and the GQS was 2.5 ± 0.9 (fair). There were positive correlations between the three checklists (p < .001). VPI was not correlated with each score (p > .05). The most common upload sources were ophthalmologists (24.4%) and YouTube channels about health (20.2%). Regarding content, we identified 47 (50%) medical education, 26 (27.6%) patient education, 16 (17%) patient experience, and five (5.3%) surgical procedure videos involving patients with uveitis. While the most popular videos were uploaded by doctors other than ophthalmologists, the videos uploaded by academic institutions and associations of healthcare professional were found to have higher educational quality and reliability scores.
CONCLUSIONS: Uveitis videos on YouTube are of poor quality and reliability and are not adequately educational for patients. Therefore, physicians must be aware of the limitations of YouTube and ensure the flow of correct medical information to patients.

摘要：
背景：本研究旨在分析YouTube上作为葡萄膜炎教育资源的视频的质量。
方法：使用关键字“葡萄膜炎”进行了在线YouTube搜索。总视图计数,视频的持续时间，发布日期,喜欢和不喜欢，评论的数量,并记录了视频的来源。使用DISCERN评分评估视频教育内容的质量和准确性，全球质量评分（GQS），和美国医学会杂志（JAMA）评分。视频功率指数（VPI）用于评估视频的观看率等。所有视频都根据出版商和类别类型进行分类。
结果：在分析的200个视频中，94人包括在内。平均DISCERN评分为38.5±13.2（差），平均JAMA评分为1.8±0.6（一般），GQS为2.5±0.9(公平)。三个检查表之间存在正相关(p<.001)。VPI与各评分无相关性(p>.05)。最常见的上传来源是眼科医生（24.4%）和关于健康的YouTube频道（20.2%）。关于内容,我们确定了47（50％）医学教育，26（27.6%）患者教育，16（17％）患者经验，和五个(5.3%)涉及葡萄膜炎患者的外科手术视频。虽然最受欢迎的视频是由眼科医生以外的医生上传的，学术机构和医疗保健专业协会上传的视频被发现具有更高的教育质量和可靠性分数。
结论：YouTube上的葡萄膜炎视频质量和可靠性较差，对患者没有足够的教育。因此,医生必须意识到YouTube的局限性，并确保向患者提供正确的医疗信息。
