The trends in society have provided favourable conditions for the rapid growth of radiology on social media, specifically there has been an expanding presence on Twitter. Currently, simple searches on Twitter yield a plethora of radiology education resources, that may be suited for medical students, residents or practicing radiologists. Educators have many tools at their disposal to deliver effective teaching. Over time, strategies such as including images and scrollable stacks often are more successful at gaining popularity or clicks online. Journals and authors can use Twitter to promote their new scientific work and potentially reach audiences they couldn’t have prior. Attendees at conferences can get involved in the conversation by tweeting about the meeting and engaging with other attendees with mutual interests. Interested medical students, residents and even practicing radiologists can use Twitter as a means of networking and connecting with other scholars all around the globe. Within its glory, Twitter does carry some drawbacks including privacy concerns, equality, and risk of misinformation. Above all, the future of Twitter is bright and promising for all who are currently on it and plan to use it for their education, research, or professional advancement.

“…Several prior publications have described the potential roles of social media for radiology education, detailing the experiences of individual and departmental accounts. 4 -14 Others have detailed the value of social media by radiology departments for engaging faculty members, 4,15 by national medical societies for increasing engagement of members during national meetings, [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] and for increasing readership and engagement of medical journals. [23][24][25][26][27] During the past 4 years, multiple neuroradiology societies have implemented social media-based educational outreach initiatives, the earliest being the American Society of Head and Neck Radiology (ASHNR), which launched a weekly case-based education initiative in 2018 using Twitter as the primary vehicle for content dissemination.…”

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Social media has made inroads in medical education. We report the creation and 3-year (2018-2021) longitudinal assessment of the American Society of Head and Neck Radiology Case of the Week (#ASHNRCOTW), assessing viewership, engagement, and impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on this Twitter-based education initiative.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Unknown cases were tweeted from the American Society of Head and Neck Radiology account weekly. Tweet impressions (number of times seen), engagements (number of interactions), and new followers were tabulated. A social media marketing platform identified worldwide distribution of Twitter followers. Summary and t test statistics were performed.RESULTS: #ASHNRCOTW was highly visible with 2,082,280 impressions and 203,137 engagements. There were significantly greater mean case impressions (9917 versus 6346), mean case engagements (1305 versus 474), case engagement rates (13.06% versus 7.76%), mean answer impressions (8760 versus 5556), mean answer engagements (908 versus 436), answer engagement rates (10.38% versus 7.87%), mean total (case 1 answer) impressions (18,677 versus 11,912), mean total engagements (2214 versus 910), and total engagement rates (11.79% versus 7.69%) for cases published after the pandemic started (all P values , .001). There was a significant increase in monthly new followers after starting #ASHNRCOTW (mean, 134 versus 6; P , .001) and significantly increased monthly new followers after the pandemic started compared with prepandemic (mean, 178 versus 101; P ¼ .003). The American Society of Head and Neck Radiology has 7564 Twitter followers throughout 130 countries (66% outside the United States).CONCLUSIONS: Social media affords substantial visibility, engagement, and global outreach for radiology education. #ASHNRCOTW viewership and engagement increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…É fundamental que a Academia brasileira encontre formas mais eficazes de se comunicar, tanto com seus pares, com os gestores e, principalmente, com as pacientes, usando linguagem fácil, acessiva e inclusiva. O uso de redes sociais como forma de obter informações é uma realidade 132 , além de ser bastante provável que as métricas de comunicação em redes sociais possam ser utilizados como forma de medição de impacto de estudos [133][134][135] .…”

médico e pesquisador, meu parceiro nas discussões de todos os resultados desta tese e seu mais criterioso revisor. Minha inspiração, meu amanhecer e uma das mais importantes e bonitas partes de mim. Aos meus pais, Maria José e Ricardo, que sempre entenderam a educação como o mais importante legado a ser passado aos filhos, e não mediram esforços, com muito sacrifício pessoal, para permitir que alcançássemos o ensino superior. À minha família, irmãos, avós, que sempre foram fonte de energia e de amor. Aos professores do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Tocoginecologia, em especial ao Professor Doutor José Guilherme Cecatti, verdadeiro role model para todos aqueles que desejam entender os fenômenos que envolvem a saúde sexual e reprodutiva. À minha orientadora, Professora Doutora Maria Laura Costa, que me ensinou com muita generosidade sobre Obstetrícia e Pesquisa, que me animou a escolher com sabedoria as minhas lutas e me estimulou a confiar em mim mesmo. As palavras de admiração e agradecimento nunca serão suficientes. EPÍGRAFE "Eu acredito na intuição e na inspiração. A imaginação é mais importante que o conhecimento. O conhecimento é limitado, enquanto a imaginação abraça o mundo inteiro, estimulando o progresso, dando à luz a evolução. Ela é, rigorosamente falando, um fator real na pesquisa científica." Albert Einstein "Somos assim: sonhamos o voo, mas tememos a altura. Para voar é preciso ter coragem para enfrentar o terror do vazio. Porque é só no vazio que o voo acontece. O vazio é o espaço da liberdade, a ausência de certezas. Mas é isso o que tememos: o não ter certezas. Por isso trocamos o voo por gaiolas. As gaiolas são o lugar onde as certezas moram." Fiodor Dostoievski RESUMOIntrodução: Hipertensão e acometimento de órgãos-alvo, como rins, fígado e cérebro, são a expressão clínica das lesões endoteliais determinantes da pré-eclâmpsia, principal causa de mortalidade materna no Brasil, além de representar importante causa de prematuridade.Associação entre pré-eclâmpsia e COVID-19 é suspeita devido ao SARS-CoV-2 usar receptores que estão aumentados na gestante e cuja redução se associa à pré-eclâmpsia. Predizer complicações associadas à pré-eclâmpsia é fundamental para o adequado manejo obstétrico.Objetivo: estimar a prevalência de pré-eclâmpsia no Brasil, investigar a associação de hipertensão com a prematuridade e COVID-19, e validar calculadora (fullPIERS) de estratificação de risco. Métodos: 1) revisão integrativa da literatura quanto à prevalência de pré-eclâmpsia no Brasil; 2) análise secundária do Estudo Multicêntrico de Investigação de Prematuridade (EMIP) para investigar a associação entre hipertensão e prematuridade; 3) análise secundária da Rede Brasileira de COVID-19 e Obstetrícia (REBRACO) para investigar a associação entre pré-eclâmpsia e COVID-19; 4) estudo de validação da ferramenta FullPIERS para predição de gravidade em pré-eclâmpsia. Resultados: 1) incluíram-se 10 estudos que evidenciaram grande divergência nas prevalências observadas no Brasil (2,3 a 14,1%), com prevalência acumulada de...
