Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Utilized in the healthcare sector, social media offers numerous benefits. However, its drawbacks encompass the variable quality of unregulated and unsupervised content. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the information in content related to chest pain found across Instagram and analyze the quality and reliability of chest pain-related content via Instagram posts.
METHODS: Instagram posts with content related to chest pain were analyzed with the help of a structured questionnaire that included the Global Quality Scale (GQS) and DISCERN score (DS). To collect Instagram posts, several distinct hashtags were employed: #chestpain, #chestpains, #angina, #anginatreatment, #heartattack, #heartattacksurvivor, #heartattackprevention.
RESULTS: A total of 262 posts were included, of which 29.7% of the total posts (n=78) contained information that describes the etiology of the disease. 27.8% of the total posts (n = 73) enclosed promotional content. Posts were found to be uploaded by doctors (18.7%), hospitals (15.6%), patients (17.9%), dieticians (11.1%), healthcare organizations (9.2%), and others (27.5%). Both Global Quality and DISCERN scores were statistically significant with a p-value of 0.001.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study revealed that most of the Instagram content on chest pain posted via physicians were highly reliable and had a better global quality score. Information regarding various causes, symptoms and preventive measures on Instagram can be considered as an acceptable source for patients to surf on. A major limitation is that only English content was analyzed. In the future, the use of higher quality posts produced by healthcare professionals could potentially contribute to enhancing patient education via Instagram.

摘要：
背景：在医疗保健领域利用，社交媒体提供了许多好处。然而,它的缺点包括不受管制和无监督内容的可变质量。因此，我们旨在评估Instagram上发现的与胸痛相关的内容信息，并通过Instagram帖子分析胸痛相关内容的质量和可靠性。
方法：在结构化问卷的帮助下，对包含胸痛相关内容的Instagram帖子进行分析，问卷包括全球质量量表（GQS）和DISCERN评分（DS）。要收集Instagram帖子，采用了几个不同的标签：#chestpain，#chestpains,#心绞痛,#anginatreatment,#心脏病发作,#心脏病幸存者,#预防心脏病。
结果：共纳入262个职位，其中29.7%的总职位(n=78)包含描述该疾病病因的信息。27.8%的总帖子(n=73)包含宣传内容。发现帖子由医生上传(18.7%),医院（15.6%），患者（17.9%），营养师(11.1%)，医疗机构(9.2%)，和其他（27.5%）。全局质量和DISCERN评分均具有统计学意义，p值为0.001。
结论：这项研究的结果表明，通过医生发布的大多数关于胸痛的Instagram内容非常可靠，并且具有更好的全球质量评分。关于各种原因的信息，Instagram上的症状和预防措施可以被认为是患者冲浪的可接受来源。一个主要的限制是只分析了英语内容。在未来,使用医疗保健专业人员制作的更高质量的帖子可能有助于通过Instagram加强患者教育。
