近年来，社交网站（SNS）迅速普及。这些网站的普及，加上其互动功能，沿着提供了一个新的环境，在其中传递健康促进信息。本文的目的是研究在何种程度上，目前正在使用的SNSs性健康促进和描述这些活动的广度。我们对已发表的科学文献、电子来源（一般和科学搜索引擎、博客）和SNS（Facebook、MySpace）进行了系统性搜索，以确定使用SNS的现有性健康促进活动。如果健康促进活动与性健康或性行为有关，利用一个或多个国家战略，并涉及健康促进的某些内容，则有资格列入。有关健康促进活动的来源和类型，目标人群和网站活动的信息被提取。178项性健康促进活动符合纳入标准，并被纳入审查;只有一项活动是通过对已发表的科学文献进行传统的系统检索确定的。最常用的社交网络活动是由非营利组织开展的，以年轻人为目标，涉及信息传递。Facebook是最常用的SNS（71%的健康促进活动使用），其次是MySpace和Twitter。MySpace上79%的活动被认为是不活跃的，因为在过去一个月内没有在线帖子，而使用Facebook的活动为22%，使用Twitter的活动为14%。在过去七天，不同的健康推广活动的最终用户和帖子数量差异很大。SNS被用于促进性健康，尽管它们的使用程度差异很大，而且绝大多数活动在科学文献中没有报道。未来的研究应探讨成功的关键因素，这些活动吸引了大量和积极的用户群，以及如何衡量成功，以指导未来的健康促进活动在这一新兴的环境中的发展。
In recent years social networking sites (SNSs) have grown rapidly in popularity. The popularity of these sites, along with their interactive functions, offer a novel environment in which to deliver health promotion messages. The aim of this paper is to examine the extent to which SNSs are currently being used for sexual health promotion and describe the breadth of these activities. We conducted a systematic search of published scientific literature, electronic sources (general and scientific search engines, blogs) and SNSs (Facebook, MySpace) to identify existing sexual health promotion activities using SNSs. Health promotion activities were eligible for inclusion if they related to sexual health or behaviour, utilised one or more SNSs, and involved some element of health promotion. Information regarding the source and type of health promotion activity, target population and site activity were extracted. 178 sexual health promotion activities met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review; only one activity was identified through a traditional systematic search of the published scientific literature. Activities most commonly used one SNS, were conducted by not-for-profit organisations, targeted young people and involved information delivery. Facebook was the most commonly used SNS (used by 71% of all health promotion activities identified), followed by MySpace and Twitter. Seventy nine percent of activities on MySpace were considered inactive as there had been no online posts within the past month, compared to 22% of activities using Facebook and 14% of activities using Twitter. The number of end-users and posts in the last seven days varied greatly between health promotion activities. SNSs are being used for sexual health promotion, although the extent to which they are utilised varies greatly, and the vast majority of activities are unreported in the scientific literature. Future studies should examine the key factors for success among those activities attracting a large and active user base, and how success might be measured, in order to guide the development of future health promotion activities in this emerging setting.
