Web 2.0, also known as participative and social web, includes websites based on user-generated context, usability, participatory culture and interoperability (i.e., compatible with other products, systems, and devices) for end-users.</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Gómez Rivas et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> performed a review of the articles found in PubMed with the search terms: Social media, Urology, Science and Research in his analysis about scientific social networks and their current role in urology (<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Actas Urológicas Españolas</span>, June 2019).</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Today, social media (SoMe), especially Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, Periscope, YouTube and LinkedIn are an essential part of our personal and professional lives. Due to user's constant interaction, content dissemination and editing, it is a tool that provides us with exponential acquisition of knowledge accessible to a very wide audience (even to patients). However, the random or extensive employment of these tools entails some cons: mainly the difficult distinction between scientific/non-scientific information, free access even for fake profiles and patients’ ethical and legal issues. These are some of the reasons why these networks are not recommended by health care associations.</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Alsyouf et al. recently published a study in BJU (May 2019)<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> on urology “fake news” in social media platforms, concluding that inaccurate/misleading articles on genitourinary malignancies are 28 times more likely to be shared than factual articles.</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In another paper published by Loeb et al.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> the authors analyzed the first 150 videos on prostate cancer (screening and treatment), concluding that 77% contained misinformative and/or biased content, with a negative correlation between scientific quality and visualizations.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">These studies highlight the importance of guiding patients to appropriate resources and appeal for the surveillance from health care and technological communities.</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although Twitter and LinkedIn are social networks for personal use, these can be used with scientific or professional purposes; Twitter, with the appropriate hashtags and scientific content, and LinkedIn as a curriculum vitae, especially in the business field. In fact, an article by Nolte et al.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> also published in May 2019 in European Urology Focus, shows the positive correlation between the number of likes/RTs in scientific content tweets during a congress (AUA) and the subsequent publication of related works in a journal in the following months, revealing the importance and impact of social networks in our professional spheres.</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Today, in the information and Internet era, it is difficult to differentiate between fake and real information, as well as to separate our private lives from the professional ones. Our duty as health care professionals and researchers is to be faithful to scientific knowledge and patient confidentiality ethics.</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Sc-SoMe (ResearchGate, Orcid, Doximity, Mendeley, etc.) have an acceptable level of scientific credibility. Users are selected and divided according to common interests and/or research areas. Although they do are not as active and fresh as other social networks, their information is specialized with significant scientific value. This allows users to relate and link profiles of similar authors, contact and share publications, as well as having a reliable online CV. Some of these Sc-SoMe allow us to see scores, acting as a personal impact factor.</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It should be noted that, since the last decade, there are tools to calculate the impact factor of publications on social networks through algorithms. An example of these is Altmetrics,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> an impact factor calculated through weighted algorithms based on media, science blogs, Twitter, Facebook and Wikipedia citations (among others). These results are displayed in Altmetric “donuts” with the attention score in the middle. The donut's colors represent the different channels (for example, Facebook is dark blue).</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We must get to know the available tools, adapt them to our own needs and keep progressing to excellence through social media. It is our responsibility to know and discover the different instruments, and the review in AUE<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> is a great summary on scientific social networks (Sc-SoMe) for the most inexperienced users.</p></span>" "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "NotaPie" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "etiqueta" => "☆" "nota" => "<p class="elsevierStyleNotepara" id="npar0005">Please cite this article as: Sabiote Rubio L, Autran Gomez AM, Reis LO.
