招募参与者参加临床试验仍然是一项挑战，这可能导致研究延迟或终止。最近的研究使用社交媒体来提高招聘结果。有必要对为此目的使用社交媒体的文献进行评估。本研究旨在回答以下问题：(1)文献中如何结合使用社交媒体和传统方法来加强临床试验招募和登记？以及(2)文献中提供的关于招募和招生结果的数据允许跨研究进行比较吗？我们在7个平台上进行了全面的文献搜索，以确定结合社交媒体和传统方法招募患者的临床试验。对研究和参与者的特征、招募方法和招募结果进行评估和比较。通过系统的搜索，我们确定了2371个标题和摘要。在这些研究中，我们评估了95篇完整的论文，并确定有33项研究符合纳入标准。共有17项研究报告了招生结果，其中9项达到或超过了招生目标。在这些研究中，来自社交媒体的参与者比例从0%到49%不等。在所有33项研究中，从社交媒体招募和注册的参与者比例差异很大。共有9项研究报告称，社交媒体的注册率高于任何其他方法，4项研究报告的每位注册参与者的社交媒体成本最低。虽然使用社交媒体改善临床试验参与度的评估因报告不一致而受到阻碍，但初步数据表明，社交媒体可以增加参与度，降低每位参与者的成本。需要采用一致的标准来报告招募和登记结果，以促进我们对社交媒体的理解和使用，以支持临床试验的成功。
Recruiting participants into clinical trials continues to be a challenge, which can result in study delay or termination. Recent studies have used social media to enhance recruitment outcomes. An assessment of the literature on the use of social media for this purpose is required. This study aims to answer the following questions: (1) How is the use of social media, in combination with traditional approaches to enhance clinical trial recruitment and enrollment, represented in the literature? and (2) Do the data on recruitment and enrollment outcomes presented in the literature allow for comparison across studies? We conducted a comprehensive literature search across 7 platforms to identify clinical trials that combined social media and traditional methods to recruit patients. Study and participant characteristics, recruitment methods, and recruitment outcomes were evaluated and compared. We identified 2371 titles and abstracts through our systematic search. Of these, we assessed 95 full papers and determined that 33 studies met the inclusion criteria. A total of 17 studies reported enrollment outcomes, of which 9 achieved or exceeded their enrollment target. The proportion of participants enrolled from social media in these studies ranged from 0% to 49%. Across all 33 studies, the proportion of participants recruited and enrolled from social media varied greatly. A total of 9 studies reported higher enrollment rates from social media than any other methods, and 4 studies reported the lowest cost per enrolled participant from social media. While the assessment of the use of social media to improve clinical trial participation is hindered by reporting inconsistencies, preliminary data suggest that social media can increase participation and reduce per-participant cost. The adoption of consistent standards for reporting recruitment and enrollment outcomes is required to advance our understanding and use of social media to support clinical trial success.
