Using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling, researchers identified eight common topics of health rumors, which were grouped into four themes: public health (e.g., infectious disease prevention), disease (e.g., therapy and regimen), diet and health (e.g., food safety), and spread of rumors. Limitations include the inability to access original rumor articles removed after refutation and the focus on article content rather than user engagement metrics like likes or comments.
