Yet the content of such websites may be of variable accuracy and quality. This review aims to evaluate the quality, readability, and suitability of web-based resources on endometriosis-associated dyspareunia for patients. We searched 3 databases \u2013 Google, Bing, and Yahoo \u2013 to identify websites related to endometriosis-associated dyspareunia. Two independent reviewers screened the search results against inclusion and exclusion criteria. Another set of two reviewers evaluated the selected websites using validated measurement instruments. Out of 450 websites, 21 met the inclusion criteria and were evaluated. More than half of the websites had information on content updates, reported on authorship, or disclosed sponsorship information. The mean quality and suitability scores were 47.5 (SD = 13.3) and 65.2 (SD = 13.6) respectively, thus suggesting generally adequate quality and suitability levels. However, the mean readability scores exceeded the recommended level for health-related websites. The poor readability of the websites might limit accessibility for a significant proportion of patients with low educational levels. The findings of this review have implications for designing high-quality, readable and up-to-date web interventions for people who rely on web platforms as an alternative or complementary source of health information on dyspareunia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/14604582241231151","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,3]],"date-time":"2024-02-03T09:51:07Z","timestamp":1706953867000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["The quality, suitability, and readability of web-based resources on endometriosis-associated dyspareunia: A systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"30","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9395-8642","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdul-Fatawu","family":"Abdulai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.Fuchsia","family":"Howard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gurkiran","family":"Parmar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heather","family":"Noga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Women Health Research Institute, British Columbia Women\u2019s Hospital & Health Center, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Abdul Aziz","family":"Abdul- Ghafoor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michelle","family":"Lisonek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paul J","family":"Yong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada"},{"name":"Women Health Research Institute, British Columbia Women\u2019s Hospital & Health Center, Vancouver, BC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.sxmr.2017.06.005"},{"key":"bibr2-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fertnstert.2007.03.069"},{"key":"bibr3-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2648.2004.03055.x"},{"key":"bibr4-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fertnstert.2004.07.973"},{"key":"bibr5-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.esxm.2018.04.006"},{"key":"bibr6-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jsm.12349"},{"key":"bibr7-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejogrb.2013.04.001"},{"key":"bibr8-14604582241231151","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1933719110382921"},{"key":"bibr9-14604582241231151","volume-title":"NW 1615 L.
