A survey on the cognitive status and attitude for oral genetics among graduate students of stomatology
To evaluate the cognitive status for oral genetics among graduate students of stomatology
and to provide advice for teaching reform and design of oral genetics course.
Methods
2
A questionnaire survey was conducted among first-year graduate students of stomatology in Medical School of Nanjing University enrolled in the academic year of 2022-2023. The questionnaire was designed for "Assessing cognition and attitudes towards oral genetics" and included four parts: assessment of students' level of awareness and knowledge about oral genetic disorders; understanding the role of genetic factors in stomatology; the causes of oral diseases; and awareness of oral genetic disorders and rare oral diseases. Students completed the questionnaire anonymously and voluntarily at the beginning and end of the course. Excel 2013 was used for data processing. SPSS 21.0 was used for rank sum test
chi-square test
and
t
-test for paired samples.
Results
2
A total of 58 questionnaires were recovered (recovery rate 89.66%) and 52 questionnaires were valid (26 each at the beginning and end of the course). A total of 26 students aged (24.73±1.28) years were enrolled and 69.23% of the students treated patients with oral genetic disorders. Their knowledge of oral genetics increased significantly after the course (

.
Conclusions
2
Students generally realize the importance of genetics in stomatology. The implementation of the course helps to improve students' cognition and clinical diagnosis and treatment of oral genetic diseases.
