- Abstract
Designing a new course is a challenging process. Due to changes in the educational process for doctors in the Republic of Croatia an internship programme was no longer a part of training. The department of anaesthesiology, resuscitation, emergency and intensive care medicine at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Rijeka was assigned to design and teach a new course – Simulation of clinical skills in the sixth year of study. Since the students did not previously have extensive experience in simulation, and at the same time they expressed the need to know how to manage a critically ill patients as doctors (which they will soon become), the development of the course presented a great challenge to the staff of the Department, despite their previous teaching experience. The course was developed by working in a team, considering local circumstances and the scarcity of students’ simulation experience. 5 large teaching topics were formed, and each individual topic was made a part of a puzzle that ultimately enables the successful treatment of patients through all steps, applying technical and non-technical skills. The course is regularly improved through minor changes in all aspects of it. The process of development and improvement of teaching over eight years is described. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background/Aim. The competence of healthcare workers (HCWs) to advocate the importance of immunization to persons who are hesitant about vaccines is extremely important. The aim of this study was to evaluate the final-year medical students’ competencies related to immunization challenges in their practice using their knowledge, attitudes, and study practices. Methods. The cross-sectional study was conducted among 442 final-year students of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Belgrade, Serbia. The instrument used for data collection was an anonymous questionnaire consisting of 38 questions. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted to identify the predictive value of different factors in immunization knowledge among medical students. Results. The median total knowledge score with the interquartile range was 7 ± 3.00 out of 13. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between the knowledge score and the grade point average (GPA) (r = 0.207, p < 0.001). Thirty-five percent of students felt moderately capable of conducting work regarding vaccination without supervision. Furthermore, 92.1% of students considered that additional training and information channels about immunization needed to be implemented in curricula for HCWs. The results of the hierarchical regression analysis showed that gender, age, GPA, study duration, self-confidence regarding immunization knowledge, the flu, and hepatitis B vaccination status explained a total of 36% of the variance in the immunization knowledge score. Less than two-thirds of students believed they had enough knowledge to reassure a person hesitant about immunization. Conclusion. The results of our study showed an average level of knowledge about immunization among final-year medical students. As less than two-thirds of students believe that they have enough knowledge to reassure a hesitant person, there is a need for a better understanding and improving the parts of the curricula of medical faculties regarding immunization.

Background/Aim. The mental health of medical students worsens during their studies, and research shows that m edical s tudents are at high risk of depression. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of depressive symptoms and to examine the association between various risk factors and depressive symptoms in a sample of first- and sixth-year medical students at the University of Novi Sad. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Novi Sad. The sample consisted of 308 students divided into two groups - 213 students in the first year and 95 students in the final (sixth) year of medical studies. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to measure depressive symptoms. Within this instrument, item 9 was used to identify suicidal ideation. Self-esteem was evaluated with the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES). Additional questions were focused on selfassessed material status, lifestyle factors, and mental healthcare-seeking. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were applied. Results. The prevalence of depressive episodes among medical students was 16.6%. Almost 9% had thoughts of committing suicide. First-year students with low self-esteem were almost seven times more likely to suffer from moderate to severe depressive symptoms than those with high self-esteem. Students who had used sleeping pills or sedatives without a prescription were nearly five times more likely to have a PHQ-9 score = 10 than those who had not [odds ratio (OR) = 4.97, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.83-13.52)]. Sixth-year students with poor or average self-assessed social relationships and low self-esteem had a stronger association with a PHQ-9 s core = 1 0. Conclusion. There is a high prevalence of depressive episodes among first and sixth-year medical students, and it is associated with low self-esteem in both groups, use of sleeping or sedative pills without a prescription among first-year students, and poor social health in sixth-year students. We recommend routine screening for depression in medical students and establishing prevention and intervention programs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Aim: To determine the level of digital literacy (DL) before and during the pandemic and determine whether volunteering at the COVID Hospital Center affected DL. Subjects and methods: The study was conducted on 150 clinical year students of the Integrated undergraduate and graduate University Study of Medicine in the academic year 2020/2021 at the University of Rijeka. The study included 114 female and 35 male participants, 22 to 28 years old (a median of 24). Fifty-six students volunteered during online/hybrid teaching in the COVID hospital or/and COVID Call Center. Students anonymously and voluntarily completed an online questionnaire. Results: The respondents reported the level of their DL before the pandemic as 3.81 (SD=0.89) and during the pandemics 4.07 (SD=0.84). Respondents predominantly considered that new teaching methods did not affect their DL level. T-test confirmed that in comparison to the pre-pandemic period, during the pandemics, students observed an improvement in their DL levels (P>0.05). When divided into groups of volunteer and non-volunteer students, there is statistical significance in the improvement of DL in students who volunteered during the pandemics (P=0.038), while in the group of non-volunteer students, there wasn’t significant change (P=0.06). Conclusion: The results of the conducted study revealed a rise in the levels of self-evaluated DL, but students don’t connect it with new online teaching methods. On the other hand, there’s a significant rise in DL levels in the student group that volunteered during the pandemics instead of those who didn’t volunteer.

Background/Aim. To reduce the risk of burnout development in medical professionals, it is important to identify the contributing factors as early as in their schooling years. The aim of this study was to propose a model for determining the relationship between the coping strategies used by medical high school and medical faculty students and burnout. Methods. The cross-sectional study included 164 students of Medical High School (80.5% female and 19.5% male) and 344 students of the Faculty of Medicine University of Belgrade, Serbia (76.9% female and 23.1% male). The model exploring the relationship between coping strategies (measured by the Brief COPE scale) and burnout [measured by the Copenhagen Burnout Inventorystudent version (CBI-S) scale] was tested using structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis. Results. When copied with stress, Medical High School students used Acceptance, Venting, Behavioural Disengagement, and Planning, which increased their burnout, but they did not use any strategies to help them reduce burnout. When copied with stress, Faculty of Medicine students used Planning, Acceptance, Humour, Venting, Behavioural Disengagement, Self-Blame, and Substance Use, which increased their burnout, and Positive Reframing, which helped them reduce burnout. Conclusion. The results of this research showed an evident lack of using adaptive coping strategies with both groups of respondents. Proper education could help them replace these dysfunctional coping strategies with constructive ones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction. Persistent infection with highly oncogenic human papillomavirus is associated with premalignant cervical lesions and cervical cancer, as well as cancers of the vulva and vagina. The aim of the study was to determine the level of knowledge and attitudes towards human papillomavirus infection, its risk factors, clinical manifestations and the use of contraception. Material and Methods. A total of 355 first-year students of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Novi Sad, filled in a non-standardized, self-administered questionnaire designed for the purpose of this study. The collected data included: sexual history of the respondents, the use and knowledge of contraception, human papillomavirus infection, and human papillomavirus vaccine. Results. About 89% of students have heard of human papillomavirus infection, while 75.5% of them knew that human papillomavirus infection is a sexually transmitted disease. Accurate knowledge about human papillomavirus infection was low, while female students showed higher levels of knowledge compared to the male (4.03 ± 3.07 versus 5.56 ±3.37; p < 0.01). Only 27.6% of students knew that young women are at a higher risk of human papillomavirus infection, 45.9% of the respondents knew that the risk of human papillomavirus infection depends on the number of sexual partners, 34.09% of them knew that a condom does not provide complete protection against human papillomavirus infection, 53.5% knew that human papillomavirus can cause cervical cancer, and only 19.7% of students knew that human papillomavirus infection can cause penile cancer. Conclusion. The first-year medical students showed a lack of knowledge about human papillomavirus infection and human papillomavirus-related diseases. General education and health education of young people is necessary primarily in secondary schools, in order to preserve the reproductive health and prevent human papillomavirus-related cancers.

SELF-efficacy in students , *MEDICAL students , *SELF-efficacy , *GRADE point average , *ACADEMIC degrees , *LECTURE method in teaching - Abstract
Introduction. English for Specific Purposes focuses on teaching and learning subject specific knowledge which includes specific language skills that particular learners need for a specific purpose. Self-efficacy is determined by subjective beliefs about one’s own abilities, which also applies to the academic setting of studying English for Specific Purposes. Academic self-efficacy represents the conviction of students about their own abilities to successfully fulfil academic tasks at designated levels. The goal of this research is to examine the degree of academic self-efficacy of medical students who learn English for Specific purposes at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Novi Sad, with respect to their gender, year of study, grade achieved in the previous course in English, and the length of learning English before enrolling in the Faculty. Material and Methods. The study included 58 medical students. The researchers used the College Academic Self-Efficacy Scale questionnaire developed by Owen and Froman (1988) to assess academic self-efficacy. Results. Three significant factors were identified: general self-competence, communication with the professor, and attendance at lectures, with general self-competence being the most significant factor. Considering the independent variables, only the grade showed statistical significance. Establishing the grade as such a significant predictor can be explained by the fact that good grades and a high grade point average are presented as very desirable outcomes. However, a good grade does not necessarily mean having better knowledge or correct use of language. Conclusion. Further research into this topic is necessary, with expanding the number of participants, study programs and variables. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Studiranje podrazumijeva razne izazove koji mogu narušiti homeostazu, a neki su od tih izazova opterećenost učenjem, želja za akademskim postignućem i studiranje uz rad. S obzirom na navedeno, kod studentske je populacije općenito važno promicati osobne zdrave navike, a kod studenata sestrinstva i medicine uz to i navike promoviranja zdravog načina života. Cilj je ovog preglednog rada utvrditi kojim se mjerama procjenjuje i kojim se metodama istražuje životni stil studenata sestrinstva i medicine. Pregled opsega proveden je i dovršen 28. prosinca 2020. godine pretraživanjem baze podataka Medline/WoS. Uključeni su članci koji opisuju primarna opažajna istraživanja o zdravom životnom stilu studenata sestrinstva i medicine. Od 68 identificiranih članaka, 12 ih je prihvaćeno (17,7 %) za konačnu analizu. Izrađene su kvantitativna i kvalitativna analiza podataka. Za procjenu životnog stila koriste se upitnici i antropometrijski instrumenti, a fokus je na kriterijima zdravog načina života, kao što su učestalost tjelesne aktivnosti, indeks tjelesne mase, kvaliteta spavanja, balansiranost prehrane, mentalno zdravlje i drugi. Mjere tjelesnog zdravlja u većoj su mjeri zastupljene od mjera mentalnog zdravlja. Sva su istraživanja bila presječnog tipa. Istraživanja pokazuju da studenti sestrinstva i medicine nemaju optimalan životni stil. Potrebna su daljnja istraživanja povezanosti mentalnog zdravlja i životnog stila s ciljem osmišljavanja strategija za unapređenje zdravog načina života u ovoj populaciji, kao i ispitivanja učinkovitosti takvih strategija., Studying involves a host of challenges that can disrupt homeostasis. Some of these include the burden of learning, the desire for academic achievement, and studying while working. Therefore, it is important to promote personal healthy habits in the student population, and for nursing and medical students, additional habits to promote healthy lifestyles. This scoping review aims to determine which measures are used to assess the lifestyle of nursing and medical students and which methods are used to research them. The scoping review was conducted and completed on December 28, 2020, by searching the Medline / WoS database. Articles describing primary non-experimental research on the healthy lifestyles of nursing and medical students were included. Of the 68 articles identified, 12 (17.7%) were accepted for final analysis. Quantitative and qualitative data analyses were conducted. Questionnaires and anthropometric tools are used for the assessment, and the focus is on healthy lifestyle criteria such as frequency of physical activity, body mass index, sleep quality, balanced diet, mental health, and others. Physical health is represented more frequently than mental health. All studies were cross-sectional studies. Research shows that nursing and medical students do not have an optimal lifestyle. The relationship between mental health and lifestyle needs further research to develop strategies to promote healthy lifestyles in this population and also to study the effectiveness of these strategies.

The main aim of this paper was to investigate levels of empathy in medical students as well as their attitudes toward people with mental disorders. We recruited 144 students from the School of Medicine in Podgorica (Montenegro), out of which 37.7% were males and 62.3% were females. The mean age of the sample was 21.85 (SD = 2.65). We designed Scale of attitudes toward mentally ill people (SAMIP), and principal component analysis revealed that this instrument could be divided into two subscales - Positive attitudes toward the mentally ill (PAMI, a= .903) and Stigmatization of the mentally ill (SMI, a= .875). These subscales had high levels of reliability (i.e. internal consistency). The second measure was Empathy Questionnaire which is a unidimensional tool with a very high level of internal consistency (a= .924). The results revealed a high positive correlation between empathy levels and positive attitudes towards people with mental illness, a low correlation of empathy with the year of study, a low negative correlation between stigmatizing the mentally ill and participants' age, as well as low positive correlations of proneness to stigma with students' GPA and expectations of their profession. Recommendations for further research in this field were listed as well. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hypochondria is a mental disorder characterized by a preoccupation with fears that a person may be ill or suffering from a serious illness, based on a misinterpretation of problems that cannot be eliminated by appropriate medical reassurance. A special type of hypochondriasis known as Medical Student Syndrome (MSS) refers to student's fears and beliefs that they are ill or may become ill with the illnesses they are learning while studying in pre-clinical and clinical subjects. A cross-sectional study was conducted during the winter semester of the 2019/2020 school year, with a sample of 90 students of the first, third, and sixth year of the Faculty of Medicine, sampled on a random basis. Subjects completed the Illness Attitude Scale (IAS). The aim of study was to investigate whether there is a difference in the incidence of hypochondrial tendencies and beliefs in the students of the Faculty of Medicine in relation to the year of study. The mean values on certain subscales were statistically significantly higher in students of third compared to students of first and sixth year of medicine. Students who have not renewed a year were found to have significantly higher average scores on the Disease Concerns and Pain Concerns subscale, as well as Disease phobia compared to those who renewed the year, while Hypochondrial beliefs were statistically significantly higher in subjects who renewed the year compared to students who had not renewed the year. The presented results support the hypothesis that health anxiety and all its components among the medical students at the preclinical level is most pronounced in the third year of study, and that it shows declining trend in the later stages of study.

Depression, anxiety and stress symptoms are common in medical students. The objective of the paper was to assess and to compare the prevalence of depressive symptoms in the first and fourth year medical students. Methods. The cross-sectional study based on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was done. The response rate was 83% (331 of 400). Overall, 48% of the students (both first and fourth year) had symptoms of depression. The average PHQ-9 score in first year students was significantly higher than in fourth year students, 6.75 ± 4.60 vs. 5.03 ± 4.67, p < 0.05. The most prevalent were mild depresive symptoms and they were observed in almost every third medical student. The female students had significantly higher average PHQ-9 score compared with the male students 6.37 ± 4.88 vs. 4.89 ± 4.27, p < 0.01. The significant negative correlation between depressive symptoms in medical students and their everyday achievement was observed (p = 0.610; p < 0.001). More than a half of all the examined students did not have signs of depression and 48% of them did. Depressive symptoms were more prevalent in the first year students than in the fourth year students and also among the female compared with the male students. Depressive symptoms had a significantly negative impact on daily activities of the students. During medical studies students experience high levels of stress and they should be screened for the symptoms of depression. Simptomi depresije, anksioznosti i stresa često su zastupljeni kod studenata medicine i prediktori su depresije u zrelom dobu. Rad je imao za cilj da utvrdi prevalenciju depresivnih simptoma kod studenata prve i četvrte godine medicine. Primenjena je studija prevalencije kojom su bili obuhvaćeni svi studenti prve i četvrte godine integrisanih studija medicine Medicinskog fakulteta u Nišu. Kao instrument instraživanja primenjen je anonimni upitnik the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Izračunavani su Studentov t-test i Pirsonov koeficijent korelacije. Od 400 distribuiranih upitnika, kompletno popunjen bio je 331 upitnik i samo su oni uvršteni u analizu (83%). Kod 48% studenata bili su prisutni depresivni simptomi. Studenti prve godine imali su statistički veći prosečni PHQ-9 skor u upitniku od studenata četvrte godine (6,75 ± 4,60 prema 5,03 ± 4,67; p < 0,05). Svaki treći student imao je blage depresivne simptome. Studentkinje su imale statistički veći prosečni PHQ-9 skor od studenata (6,37 ± 4,88 prema 4,89 ± 4,27; p < 0,01). Postoji statistički značajna negativna korelacija između depresivnih simptoma i obavljanja svakodnevnih aktivnosti (p = 0,610; p < 0,001). Više od polovine studenata medicine nije imalo depresivne simptome, ali je 48% imalo depresivne simptome različite težine. Depresivni simptomi bili su zastupljeniji kod studenata prve godine u odnosu na studente četvrte godine i bili su značajno zastupljeniji kod studentkinja nego kod studenata. Depresivni simptomi imali su značajan negativan uticaj na obavljanje svakodnevnih aktivnosti studenata. Studenti medicine izloženi su velikom stresu tokom studiranja i u cilju sprečavanja pojave depresivne simptomatologije trebalo bi uvesti skrining depresije u sklopu sisitematskih pregleda studenata.

Uvod: Međusobna suradnja liječnika i ljekarnika prepoznata je kao jedan od potencijalnih rješenja za rano otkrivanje kroničnih bolesti, smanjenje pogrešaka u farmakoterapiji te povećanju adherentnosti pacijenata. Preduvjet za takvu suradnju je pozitivan stav prema istoj. Cilj: Ciljevi ovog istraživanja bili su utvrditi razlikuju li se stavovi liječnika i ljekarnika zaposlenih u primarnoj zdravstvenoj zaštiti te studenata medicine i farmacije u Hrvatskoj prema međusobnoj suradnji tih struka te može li sudjelovanje na interprofesionalnoj farmakoterapijskoj radionici kao obliku interprofesionalne izobrazbe pozitivno utjecati na rečene stavove. Materijali i metode: Provedene su presječne studije među liječnicima (N=81) i ljekarnicima (N=432) u 9 hrvatskih gradova (Zagreb, Split, Zadar, Dubrovnik, Rijeka, Osijek, Slavonski Brod, Varaždin i Čakovec) te među studentima medicine (N=258) i farmacije (N=107) Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu. Također, organizirane su dvije interprofesionalne farmakoterapijske radionice za studente završnih godina studija medicine (N=42) i farmacije (N=38) te liječnike (N=18) i ljekarnike (N=23). Stavovi o suradnji liječnika i ljekarnika ispitani su prije početka i nakon završetka obiju radionica. Rezultati: Studenti medicine iskazali su najmanje pozitivan stav prema suradnji liječnika i ljekarnika, čak 24 % negativniji od studenata farmacije. Liječnici imaju manje pozitivan stav od ljekarnika prema međusobnoj suradnji, no upitan je njezin značaj u kliničkoj praksi. Sudjelovanje na interprofesionalnoj farmakoterapijskoj radionici značajno je povećalo stavove liječnika, studenata medicine i studenata farmacije prema međusobnoj suradnji liječnika i ljekarnika. Stavovi liječnika i ljekarnika nakon radionice nisu se više značajno razlikovali. Zaključak: Značajna razlika između studenata medicine i farmacije u stavovima prema međusobnoj suradnji liječnika i ljekarnika mogla bi negativno utjecati na njihovu buduću suradnju. Interprofesionalne farmakoterapijske radionice pokazale su se kao potencijalno uspješan model interprofesionalne izobrazbe u smanjivanju te razlike i približavanju njihovih stavova, kao i stavova liječnika i ljekarnika., Introduction: Interprofessional collaboration between physicians and pharmacists has been recognized as a one of the potential solutions for early detection of chronic diseases, reduction of medication errors and increase in patients’ adherence. The requirements for such collaboration are positive attitudes in both professions. Objective: The first aim of this study was to determine the attitudes towards interprofessional collaboration between physicians and pharmacists in primary health care, as well as between medical and pharmacy students in Croatia. The second aim was to determine whether the participation in the interprofessional pharmacotherapy workshop could positively affect their attitudes. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional studies were conducted among physicians (N=81) and pharmacists (N=432) in 9 Croatian cities (Zagreb, Split, Zadar, Dubrovnik, Rijeka, Osijek, Slavonski Brod, Varaždin i Čakovec) and among medical (N=258) and pharmacy (N=107) students at the University of Split School of Medicine. Furthermore, two interprofessional pharmacotherapy workshops were organized - the first one for medical (N=42) and pharmacy students (N=38) and the second one for physicians (N=18) and pharmacists (N=23). Attitudes towards interprofessional collaboration between pharmacists and physicians were accessed before and after each workshop. Results: The medical students have shown 24 % less positive attitudes than pharmacy students and were the group with the least positive attitudes towards physicians and pharmacist collaboration. Physicians have shown less positive attitudes than pharmacist towards their collaboration, but the difference in their attitudes was only 6 %. Participation in the interprofessional pharmacotherapy workshop significantly increased the attitudes of physicians, medical and pharmacy students, while the pharmacists’ attitudes have not been changed. Conclusion: The moderately large difference between medical and pharmacy students’ attitudes towards interprofessional collaboration, could have a negative impact on their future collaboration. Interprofessional pharmacotherapy workshops have proved to be a successful model of interprofessional education in reducing these differences and approaching their attitudes, as well as attitudes of physicians and pharmacists.

Introduction: The rational use of drugs, especially antibiotics, has been recognized as a serious problem worldwide. Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the practical skills of Bulgarian medical students in their final year of education to prescribe antibiotics rationally as well as the impact of a training focused specifically on avoiding prescription errors. Materials/Methods: Medical students from the Medical University of Sofia in their 10th semester of education from two consecutive teaching cycles took part in this study. The students' participation was completely voluntary. The study was performed as academic study after having obtained a positive opinion from the Local Ethics Committee of the University Hospital "Tsaritsa Joanna-ISUL", Medical University of Sofia. The study was planned to be conducted in two separate parts: a pilot study aimed at receiving basic information about the self-assessment confi dence of the medical students in prescribing drugs and especially antibiotics rationally and comparing this to their actual prescribing competence and a subsequent pivotal study after having performed a thorough analysis of the results of the pilot study with implementation of the respective corrective measures. The students' perception of their theoretical knowledge and practical skills to prescribe drugs and especially antibiotics rationally was assessed by means of a questionnaire containing 5 questions whereas their level of antibiotic prescribing competence was assessed by means of solving three simulated patient cases. The appropriateness of written therapeutic prescriptions was assessed independently by two clinical pharmacologists using a three-grade assessment scale: "good", "satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory". Results: The results of the pilot study showed that 50.35% of the prescriptions were rated as "good", 21.64% as "satisfactory" and 28.01% as "unsatisfactory". The results obtained from the subsequent pivotal study showed that 60.97% of the prescriptions were rated as "good" (representing a 21.1% increase), 16.23% as "satisfactory" (representing a 25% decrease) and 22.80% as "unsatisfactory" (representing an 18.6% decrease). This was accompanied by an increase in the students' self-assessment confi dence rated as "good" - from 19.15% to 34.21%, while "satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory" ratings decreased - from 65.96% to 55.26% and from 14.89% to 10.53%, respectively. Conclusions: Medical students from the Medical University of Sofi a showed a level of competence to prescribe antibiotics rationally commensurable with the level reported by foreign medical universities. Regardless of the observed discrepancy between the self-assessment rating and the practical antibiotic prescribing skills it was clearly shown that education specifically focused on prescription errors may contribute to the improvement of the students' antibiotic prescribing competence.

Cilj je ovoga istraživanja ispitati odnos između atribucija pretilosti i stavova prema pretilim osobama kod studenata medicine te ispitati moderira li učestalost i kvaliteta kontakta s pretilim osobama ranije navedeni odnos. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 360 studenata medicine, od toga 261 studentica i 96 studenata prosječne dobi od 21,88 (SD = 2,12) godina. Istraživanje je bilo online, a sudionici su ispunjavali pitanja vezana uz demografske podatke, skalu atribucija uzroka pretilosti, skalu stavova prema pretilim osobama, kao i pitanja o učestalosti i kvaliteti kontakta s pretilim osobama. Dobiveni rezultati pokazuju da je atribucija uzroka pretilosti unutarnjim faktorima povezana s negativnijim stavovima prema pretilim osobama. Učestaliji i kvalitetniji kontakti povezani su s pozitivnijim stavovima prema pretilim osobama. Nisu dobivene značajne interakcije između atribucija uzroka pretilosti i kontakta na stavove prema pretilim osobama. Dobiveni rezultati komentirani su u kontekstu efekata koje negativni stavovi studenata imaju na pretile osobe te važnosti kontakta kao sredstva za smanjenje tih negativnih stavova., The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the attributions of obesity and attitudes towards obese people in medical students and to examine whether the frequency and quality of contact with obese people moderates this relationship. The study involved 360 medical students, 261 female students and 96 male students, with an average age of 21.88 (SD = 2.12) years. The survey was online, and the participants filled out questions related to demographics, the causes of obesity scale, anti-fat attitudes scale, as well as questions about the frequency and quality of contact with obese people. The obtained results show that the attribution of the cause of obesity by internal factors is associated with more negative attitudes towards obese people. More frequent and high-quality contacts are associated with more positive attitudes towards obese people. No significant interactions were obtained between attributions of causes of obesity and contact on the attitudes towards obese people. The obtained results are commented in the context of the effects that students' negative attitudes have on obese people and the importance of contact in reducing these negative attitudes.

Cilj: Procijeniti znanje studenata dvaju studijskih programa Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu, studija medicine i dentalne medicine, o anatomiji, fiziologiji i patologiji usne šupljine te utvrditi postoje li razlike u znanju između studenata od četvrte do šeste godine unutar svakog studija te između studija. Materijali i metode: Provedeno je presječno istraživanje, metodom internetskog upitnika s 28 pitanja. U istraživanju je sudjelovao ukupno 201 student s četvrte, pete i šeste godine studija medicine i dentalne medicine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu. Podaci su obrađeni u programskom paketu STATISTICA 11.0. Rezultati: Studenti dentalne medicine pokazali su statistički značajno veće znanje o anatomiji, fiziologiji i patologiji usne šupljine s 78,4 % točnih odgovora od studenata medicine s 53,4 % točnih odgovora (P=0,0000). Studenti medicine u nižem postotku navode veći rizik od stomatoloških problema tijekom trudnoće od studenata dentalne medicine te uz to nisu sasvim dobro upoznati s odnosom produljenog dojenja i pojave ranog karijesa djetinjstva. Da redoviti dentalni pregledi u djece trebaju početi u dobi od oko 6 godina smatra polovica ispitanih studenata s medicine (49 %). Pokazano je relativno dobro znanje (65,5 % i 78,7 %) o povezanosti oralnog i sistemskog zdravlja. Devetnaest (17 %) studenata medicine smatra da sve prekancerozne lezije oralne šupljine neizbježno dovode do karcinoma usne šupljine čak i ako se uklone predisponirajući faktori, a pogrešnom specijalistu bi većina (66; 58,9 %) studenata studija medicine poslala pacijenta s ulkusom oralne sluznice koji ne cijeli preko dva tjedna. Zaključak: Postoji statistički značajna razlika u znanju studenata medicine i dentalne medicine o anatomiji, fiziologiji i patologiji usne šupljine, a znanje raste s godinama studija, od četvrte do šeste godine., Objective: To evaluate the knowledge of students of two study programs of the University of Split School of Medicine, medicine and dental medicine, about anatomy, physiology and pathology of the oral cavity, and to determine whether there are differences in knowledge between students from the fourth to sixth year within each study and between studies. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using an online questionnaire with 28 questions. A total of 201 students from the fourth, fifth and sixth year of medicine and dental medicine of the University of Split School of Medicine participated in the research. The data were processed in the STATISTICA 11.0 software package. Results: Dental medicine students showed a statistically significant higher knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathology of the oral cavity with 78.4 % correct answers, whilst medical students had 53.4 % of correct answers (P=0.0000). A lower percentage of medical students report a higher risk of dental problems during pregnancy than students of dental medicine, and in addition, they are not quite familiar with the relationship between prolonged breastfeeding and the occurrence of early childhood caries. Half of the examined medical students (49 %) believe that regular dental examinations in children should begin at the age of 6. Relatively good knowledge was shown (65.5 % and 78.7 %) on questions about the connection between oral and systemic health. 19 (17 %) medical students believe that all precancerous lesions of the oral cavity inevitably lead to cancer of the oral cavity even if predisposing factors are removed, and the majority (66; 58.9 %) of medical students would send a patient with an ulcer of the oral mucosa which does not last more than two weeks to the wrong specialist. Conclusion: There is a statistically significant difference in the knowledge of medical and dental students about anatomy, physiology and pathology of the oral cavity, and knowledge increases with the years of study, from the fourth to the sixth year.

Ciljevi: Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je odrediti vrijednosti KEP indeksa studenata četvrte godine medicine i studenata četvrte i pete godine dentalne medicine, te dobivene vrijednosti usporediti. Materijali i metode: Istraživanje se provodilo kliničkim pregledom studenata na Odjelu dentalne medicine KBC-a Split. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 69 studenata čiji su podatci unešeni u Microsoft Excel i obrađeni statističkim alatima u sklopu istog. Rezultati: Statističkom obradom podataka dobivene vrijednosti KEP indeksa za 4. godinu medicine iznose 9,50, za 4. godinu dentalne medicine 7,55, a za 5. godinu dentalne medicine 9,11. Zaključci: Istraživanjem su potvrđene na početku postavljene hipoteze – studenti dentalne medicine imaju niže vrijednosti KEP indeksa od studenata na istoj godini studija medicine; također, studenti 4. godine dentalne medicine imaju niže vrijednosti KEP indeksa od kolega sa 5. godine studija., Objectives: The main objective of this research was to determine the value of the DMFT index in a group of students at the School of Medicine in Split that consisted of 4th year medical students, as well as 4th and 5th year dental medicine students, in order to compare the obtained results. Materials and methods: The research was carried out by means of a clinical examination of the participants at the Dental Clinic of the University Hospital in Split. A total of 69 students took part in the research and the data collected during the examination were statistically analysed using Microsoft Excel software. Results: Based on the statistical analysis of the collected data, the obtained DMFT index values were the following: 9.50 for 4th year medical students, 7.55 for 4th year dental medicine students, and 9.11 for 5th year dental medicine students. Conclusions: The research carried out and described here confirmed the hypotheses set at the beginning – dental medicine students have lower DMFT index values than students in the same year of medical studies; and furthermore, 4th year dental medicine students have lower DMFT index values than their 5th year colleagues.

- Abstract
Uvod/Cilj. U cilju smanjenja rizika od pojave sindroma sagorevanja (SS) kod zdravstvenih radnika, važno je identifikovati faktore koji doprinose njegovom razvoju još tokom njihovog školovanja. Cilj rada bio je da se predloži model za utvrđivanje povezanosti između različitih strategija za suočavanje sa stresom, koje koriste učenici srednje medicinske škole i studenti medicine, sa SS. Metode. Studijom je obuhvaćeno ukupno 164 učenika Srednje medicinske škole (80,5% ženskog i 19,5% muškog pola) i 344 studenta Medicinskog fakulteta Univerziteta u Beogradu, Srbija (76,9% ženskog i 23,1% muškog pola). Model za ispitivanje veze između strategija za suočavanje sa stresom (merene skalom "Brief COPE") i SS merenog skalom The Copenhagen Burnout Inventory-student version (CBI-S) testiran je upotrebom modeliranja strukturnih jednačina. Rezultati. Pri suočavanju sa stresom, učenici Srednje medicinske škole koristili su Prihvatanje, Ventiliranje, Bihevioralno neangažovanje i Planiranje, koje su im povećavali SS, a nisu koristili nijednu strategiju za pomaganje u smanjenju SS. Kod suočavanja sa stresom, studenti Medicinskog fakulteta koristili su Planiranje, Prihvatanje, Humor, Ventiliranje, Bihevioralno neangažovanje, Samookrivljavanje i Konzumiranje psihoaktivnih supstanci, što im je povećavalo SS, a Pozitivnu reinterpretaciju (redefinisanje) koristili su kako bi smanjili SS. Zaključak. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su jasan nedostatak upotrebe adaptivnih strategija suočavanja sa stresom kod obe grupe ispitanika. Pravilno obrazovanje bi pomoglo da se nefunkcionalni način reagovanja na stres zameni konstruktivnim., Background/Aim. To reduce the risk of burnout development in medical professionals, it is important to identify the contributing factors as early as in their schooling years. The aim of this study was to propose a model for determining the relationship between the coping strategies used by medical high school and medical faculty students and burnout. Methods. The cross-sectional study included 164 students of Medical High School (80.5% female and 19.5% male) and 344 students of the Faculty of Medicine University of Belgrade, Serbia (76.9% female and 23.1% male). The model exploring the relationship between coping strategies (measured by the Brief COPE scale) and burnout [measured by the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory-student version (CBI-S) scale] was tested using structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis. Results. When copied with stress, Medical High School students used Acceptance, Venting, Behavioural Disengagement, and Planning, which increased their burnout, but they did not use any strategies to help them reduce burnout. When copied with stress, Faculty of Medicine students used Planning, Acceptance, Humour, Venting, Behavioural Disengagement, Self-Blame, and Substance Use, which increased their burnout, and Positive Reframing, which helped them reduce burnout. Conclusion. The results of this research showed an evident lack of using adaptive coping strategies with both groups of respondents. Proper education could help them replace these dysfunctional coping strategies with constructive ones.

INTRODUCTION: To analyze the importance of conveying the knowledge of comprehensive sexual education to Croatian high school students (14-19 years) through the peer-to-peer approach. Educators were medical students who were adequately trained to be able to perform that role. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The data was collected from October 2021 to October 2022, through the Google form. It was presented to the students at the end of each education, which they then filled out with complete anonymity. The study was comprised of close-end and scoring questions using the Likert scale, and the answers were statistically analyzed by the Google Excel tools. RESULTS: We have gathered 301 responses to our study. Many of the students ; 236 (78, 6%), were vastly pleased with the education and topics that were covered, and most of them ; 269 (89, 6%), were completely satisfied with the expertise of the educators. A great number of the students ; 229 (76, 3%), affirmed that they have learned new skills and facts, claiming the education was helpful and that 207 (69%) of them will use the gathered knowledge in the future. The most interesting fact in the study was the answer to the question “In your opinion, who should educate youth about this topic at school?”. The results were captivating, 237 (78, 7%) of high school students claimed that medical students, the peer educators, are the best option for this type of education. CONCLUSION: The peer-to-peer approach, such as trained medical students, turns out to prove effective in stimulating youth into deliberating about the importance of sexuality education and its use.

Uvod: Odabir buduće specijalizacije predstavlja važnu odrednicu u razvoju karijere mladog liječnika. U obzir se pri odabiru specijalizacije, osim interesa za pojedini dio medicine, moraju uzeti i brojni drugi čimbenici. Cilj: Cilj je rada utvrditi interes studenata 5. i 6. godine studija medicine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu za odabir buduće specijalizacije, s naglaskom na rad i specijalizaciju iz obiteljske medicine. Metode: U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 262 studenata 5. i 6. godine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Odgovori su prikupljani putem anonimne ankete u obliku Google Form obrasca. Rezultati: Anketu je ispunilo 262 studenata, 178 (67.9%) žena i 84 (32.1%) muškaraca, odnosno 132 (50.4%) studenata 5. godine i 130 (49.6%) studenata 6. godine. 80.9% ispitanika u svojoj karijeri želi postati bolnički liječnik, a 10.7% liječnik u primarnoj zdravstvenoj zaštiti. Studenti najveći interes pokazuju za specijalizacije iz pedijatrije, kardiologije, ginekologije i opstetricije, kirurgije i radiologije. Kao glavni motiv za odabir željene specijalizacije većina ispitanika navodi želju za produbljivanjem znanja iz tog područja, dok će im ravnoteža između privatnog i poslovnog života predstavljati glavni izvor zadovoljstva u budućem radu. 50% ispitanika uopće se ne vidi u radu obiteljske medicine, 22.5% ne zna, dok se 27.5% jasno vidi u radu obiteljske medicine. Kao glavni potencijalni motiv za rad u obiteljskoj medicini većina ispitanika navodi smanjenje administrativnog posla, veću plaću nego u bolnici i bolju opremljenost ordinacija. 3% ispitanika navelo je kako im je specijalizacija iz obiteljske medicine prvi izbor u odabiru željene specijalizacije, od toga su ¾ žene. Kao glavni motiv za odabir specijalizacije iz obiteljske medicine 87.5% ispitanika navelo je da želi imati vremena i za ostale aktivnosti osim posla. 65.6% ispitanika uz svoj budući posao želi imati i znanstvenu karijeru. 56.9% ispitanika nakon završetka studija želi raditi u Zagrebu. Glavni motivi koji bi potaknuli ispitanike na rad u ruralnim područjima su novčana stimulacija, dobivanje željene specijalizacije i stan. Zaključak: S obzirom na mali interes studenata za specijalizaciju iz obiteljske medicine i rad u primarnoj zdravstvenoj zaštiti općenito, od iznimne je važnosti tijekom cijelog fakultetskog obrazovanja studente uključivati u rad obiteljske medicine, kao i isticati njezinu važnost u održavanju uspješnog zdravstvenog sustava.

sigurnost pacijenta ,studenti medicine - Abstract
Uvod: Sigurnost pacijenata je temeljno načelo zdravstvene zaštite koje obuhvaća prevenciju, sanaciju štete i unaprjeđenje zdravstvene zaštite od neželjenih događaja tijekom procesa zdravstvene skrbi. Cilj: Cilj je rada utvrditi znanje i stavove studenata medicine 4., 5. i 6. godine studija medicine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu o pojmu sigurnosti pacijenata. Metode: U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 80 studenata 4., 5. i 6. godine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Odgovori su prikupljani putem anonimne ankete u obliku Google Form obrasca. Rezultati: Anketu je ispunilo 80 studenata, 56 (70%) žena i 24 (30%) muškaraca, odnosno 33 (41.3%) studenata 4. godine, 30 (37.5%) studenata 5. godine i 17 (21.3%) studenata 6.godine. 60% ispitanika dosad se susrelo s pojmom sigurnost pacijenta, no tek 17.5% njih samostalno i u potpunosti može definirati značenje tog pojma. Gotovo svi (98.8%) ispitanici smatraju da je sigurnost pacijenta važna te da u tome važnu ulogu ima i komunikacija s kolegama i radno okruženje. Većina ispitanika slaže se sa svim tvrdnjama u upitniku. 97.5% ispitanika smatra da su medicinske sestre/tehničari važan u osiguranju sigurnosti pacijenta, 96.3% da su u sigurnost pacijenta uključeni i studenti medicine faktor i srodnih zanimanja, 91.5% da zdravlje liječnika utječe na sigurnost pacijenta, 86.3% da timovi bez nositelja negativno utječu na sigurnost pacijenta, a 83.8% da administrativni poslovi troše vrijeme liječnika namijenjeno skrbi pacijenta i tako negativno utječu na sigurnost pacijenta. 92.5% ispitanika smatra da je rizik da pacijent umre od medicinske nezgode veći od rizika smrti u zrakoplovnoj nesreći, 71.3% slaže se s tvrdnjom da 80% informacija koje pacijenti dobiju kod liječnika u primarnoj zdravstvenoj zaštiti odmah zaborave, što izravno dovodi u pitanje sigurnost pacijenta, dok tvrdnju 1 od 9 prijema u hitnoj službi povezano je sa štetnim učincima lijekova, što je pokazatelj loše sigurnosti pacijenata 53.8% ispitanika smatra točnom. Zaključak: Prema prikupljenim podacima i s obzirom na slab odaziv, studentima medicine pojam sigurnosti pacijenata je nepoznat i ne mogu ga u potpunosti samostalno definirati, ali ga smatraju iznimno važnim za pružanje optimalne zdravstvene zaštite. Stoga je potrebno educirati studente i razviti svijest o sigurnosti pacijenata kako bi se stvorilo sigurno okruženje i omogućila učinkovita skrb za pacijente.

Cilj istraživanja: Glavni cilj ovog istraživanja bio je procijeniti stavove studenata medicine i dentalne medicine o cijepljenju protiv COVID-19 bolesti, utvrditi razlikuju li se stavovi studenata pretkliničkih i kliničkih godina studija, te studenta koji su preboljeli bolest COVID-19. Ispitanici i postupci: Provedeno je presječno istraživanje u svrhu ispitivanja stavova studenata medicine i dentalne medicine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu o cijepljenju protiv COVID-19 bolesti. Podaci su prikupljeni rješavanjem anketnog upitnika putem Google forms internetske aplikacije tijekom lipnja 2021. Upitnik se sastojao od ukupno 34. pitanja, uključujući peterostupanjsku Likertovu skalu koja je sadržavala 27 tvrdnji. Za analizu podataka korišten je statistički software MedCalc® Rezultati: Nije pronađena statistički značajna razlika između studenata pretkliničhih i kliničkih godina studija na osnovu općih stavova o cjepivima (P=0,113) ili stavova o COVID-19 cjepivima (P=0,236). Većina studenata (50,8%) smatra da su na fakultetu stekli dovoljno informacija o COVID-19 bolesti, te da se osjećaju sposobnim informirati populaciju o njoj. Procijepljenost studenata koji su preboljeli COVID-19 bolest je drastično niža od onih koji je nisu preboljeli (P, Objective: The main objective of this study was to assess the differences in attitudes concerning vaccination against COVID-19 disease in medical and dental students, as well as to compare those attitudes between preclinical and clinical students.

Background/Aim. Rare diseases are chronic, degenerative and may lead to permanent disability. We aimed to assess knowledge and attitudes of the 3rd and 6th year medical students towards the treatment of rare diseases in Serbia. Methods. In this cross-sectional study, two samples of students were questioned for a survey: 350/446 (78.48%) students of the 3rd year, and 242/517 (46.81%) students of the 6th year. Results. Sixth year students estimated that they were more informed on the issue analyzed than the 3rd year students (median value of 4 and 3, interquartile range of 3-5, and 1-4, respectively; p < 0.05). However, a significant percentage of participants estimated incorrectly the prevalence of rare diseases according to the European Union standards (3rd year - 42.68%, 6th year - 49.55%). Core curriculum subjects were the main source of information on rare diseases (3rd year - 63.14%; 6th year - 92.14%). Our participants agreed that the most important problems are the following: high drug prices, difficult access to drugs and lack of public information. Students found, without any differences, that community access to effective drugs for rare disease should be improved (median value - 10, interquartile range 8-10 in both groups, p < 0.05). In order to improve pharmacotherapy of rare diseases in Serbia, the participants suggested establishment of a National Plan for Rare Diseases, approval of more appropriate drugs, simplified access to appropriate medicines, and more rapid diagnostics. Conclusion. It is necessary to improve the knowledge and attitudes of medical students towards pharmacotherapy of rare diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cilj istraživanja: Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati stupnjeve izraženosti trenutačnih psihičkih simptoma u studenata medicine s obzirom na spol, godinu studija, obiteljske odnose i doživljena traumatska iskustva. Ispitanici i postupci: Ispitanici su bili studenti 1., 3. i 6. godine studija medicine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu. Ukupno je sudjelovalo 166 studenata. Etičko povjerenstvo Medicinskog fakulteta u Splitu je odobrilo anonimni upitnik koji je bio temelj ovog istraživanja i sastojao se od dva dijela. Prvi dio obuhvaćao je pitanja koja su se odnosila na sociodemografska obilježja: dob, spol, godina studija, kvalitetu odnosa u obitelji, prijašnju psihološku pomoć i traumatska iskustva. Drugi dio upitnika bio je validirani upitnik BSI koji omogućuje kvantitativnu procjenu psihičkih tegoba. Rezultati: Rezultati ovog istraživanja pokazali su da je stupanj izraženosti trenutačnih psihičkih simptoma somatizacije, osjetljivosti u međuljudskim odnosima, anksioznosti i fobičnosti, značajno izraženiji u studentica u odnosu na studente. Studenti na 3. godini studija imali su značajno viši stupanj izraženosti trenutačnih simptoma somatizacije, osjetljivosti u međuljudskim odnosima, depresije, anksioznosti, fobičnosti, paranoidnih ideja i psihoticizma u odnosu na studente 6.godine. Utvrđeno je da je stupanj izraženosti depresije i psihoticizma viši u studenata 1. godine u odnosu na studente 6. godine studija. Studenti medicine koji su imali dobre obiteljske odnose imali su značajno niži stupanj izraženosti psihičkih simptoma. Studenti koji su doživjeli traumatsko iskustvo imali su značajno viši stupanj izraženosti svih psihičkih simptoma, osim hostilnosti. Zaključci: Studentice su imale viši stupanj izraženosti trenutačnih psihičkih simptoma somatizacije, anksioznosti, osjetljivosti u međuljudskim odnosima i fobije. Studenti 3. godine studija imali su izraženiju većinu trenutačnih psihičkih simptoma u odnosu na studente 6. godine. U studenata na 1.godini studija bili su izraženiji samo simptomi depresije i psihoticizma. U studenata koji su imali dobre obiteljske odnose, pronađene su niže vrijednosti izraženosti svih psihičkih simptoma, dok su u studenata koji su bili izloženi nekom traumatskim iskustvom pronađeni viši stupnjevi izraženosti svih psihičkih simptoma, osim hostilnosti., Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the actual severity level of current psychological symptoms in medical students depending on gender, year of study, quality of family relationships and traumatic experiences. Subjects and methods: Participants were 1st, 3rd and 6th year medical students at the Medical Faculty of the University of Split. A total number of 166 students participated in particular research. The Ethics Committee of the Medical Faculty in Split approved an anonymous questionnaire which formed the basis of this research that consisted of two parts. The first part covered questions related to socio-demographic characteristics: age, gender, year of study, quality of family relationships, previously asked psychological help and traumatic experiences. The second part of the questionnaire was a validated „BSI” questionnaire that allowed a quantitative assessment of mental disorders. Results: The results of this study showed that degree of expression of current psychological symptoms of somatization, sensitivity in interpersonal relationships, anxiety and phobia, is significantly higher in female students compared to their male counterparts. Students in the 3rd year of study had a significantly higher degree of current expression of symptoms of somatization, sensitivity in interpersonal relationships, depression, anxiety, phobia, paranoid ideas and psychoticism compared to 6th year students. It was found that degree of expression of depression and psychoticism is higher in 1st year students compared to 6th year students. Medical students with healthy family relationships had less severe psychological symptoms. Students with a traumatic experience had a significantly higher expression of all psychological symptoms except hostility. Conclusion: Female students had higher levels of current psychological symptoms of somatization, anxiety, sensitivity in interpersonal relationships and phobias. Students of the 3rd year expressed majority of current mental symptoms compared to 6th year students. Only symptoms of depression and psychoticism were more expressed in the 1st year students. In students with healthy family relationships had lower expression of all psychological symptoms. Meanwhile, students who were exposed to some sort of traumatic experience, higher degrees of expression of all psychological symptoms were found, except for hostility.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare cognitive and psychomotor performance between men and women and to compare daytime sleepiness assessed with the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) and Stanford sleepiness scale (SSS), subjective sleep quality assessed with Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and sleep habits between men and women. Furthermore, we investigated the association between cognitive and psychomotor performance on three tests of the computer based system Complex Reactionmeter Drenovac (CRD-series), and daytime sleepiness assessed and subjective sleep. Patients and methods: A total of 168 medical students from the University of Split School of Medicine were included in the research: 49 men with a median age of 20, ranging from 19 to 25, and 119 women with a median age of 21, ranging from 19 to 23. All students filled in the SSS, ESS, PSQI and sleep habits questionnaire. Afterwards the students performed three tests on the CRD-series battery (CRD11, CRD311, CRD411). Results: In the PSQI there was a statistically significant higher score in women (5.68±2.53) compared to men (4.80±2.14, P=0.023). The SSS score was also significantly higher in women in contrast to men (2.82±1.22 vs. 2.23±0.98, respectively, P=0.002). Women also stated to sleep shorter (6h35min ± 1h 8min) than men (6h 58min ± 58 min, P=0.024). Chronic tiredness was significantly more frequent among women than men (P=0.007). On the CRD11 test men had statistically significant shorter MinT and TTST (TTST 94.46±14.84 s and MinT 1.61±0.23 s) than women (TTST 105.82±17.78 s and MinT 1.78±0.28 s, P, Ciljevi: Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je usporediti kognitivne i psihomotoričke učinke muškaraca i žena te usporediti dnevnu pospanost procijenjenu s Epworthovom ljestvicom pospanosti (ESS) i Stanfordskom ljestvicom pospanosti (SSS), subjektivnu kvalitetu spavanja procijenjenu Pittsburgh upitnikom kvalitete spavanja (PSQI) i navike spavanja između muškaraca i žena. Nadalje, istražit ćemo povezanost kognitivnih i psihomotoričkih učinaka na tri testa sustava Complex Reactionmeter Drenovac (CRD-serija), te dnevne pospanosti i subjektivne kvalitete spavanja. Pacijenti i metode: U istraživanje je bilo uključeno ukupno 168 studenata medicine iz Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu i to 49 muškaraca sa srednjom dobi od 20 (raspon 19-25) i 119 žena srednje dobi od 21 (raspon 19-23) godina. Svi su studenti popunili SSS, ESS, PSQI i upitnik o navikama spavanja. Nakon toga studenti su riješili tri testa na CRD seriji (CRD11, CRD311, CRD411). Rezultati: U PSQI zabilježen je viši rezultat u žena (5,68±2,53) nego u muškaraca (4,80±2,14, P=0,023). SSS rezultat je također bio značajno viši u žena za razliku od muškaraca (2,82±1,22 naspram 2,23±0,98, odnosno P=0,002). Žene su također izjavile da spavaju kraće (6h35min ± 1h 8min) od muškaraca (6h 58min ± 58 min, P=0,024). Kronični umor bio je značajno češći u žena nego u muškaraca (P=0,007). Na CRD11 testu muškarci su imali značajno kraće MinT i TTST (TTST 94,46±14,84 s i MinT 1,61±0,23 s) od žena (TTST 105,82±17,78 s i MinT 1,78±0,28 s, P

Upitnik se sastojao od 50 pitanja podijeljenih u pet dijelova, kojim se ispitivalo znanje i stavovi 344 ispitanika (189 studenata medicine, 155 dentalne medicine) o COVID-19. Statistička analiza je provedena pomoću Mann-Whitney-evog ili Kruskal Wallis 1-way ANOVA testa. Rezultati: Znanje studenata se procijenilo brojem točnih odgovora, a najviši broj bodova je 17. Od ukupnog broja ispitanika, njih 49 (14,2 %) točno je odgovorilo na sva postavljena pitanja. Nadalje, 85,5 % ima dobro znanje o COVID-19 infekciji. Ispitanici nisu pokazali razliku u znanju ovisno o spolu (P = 0,169) i dobi (P = 0,260), ali su pokazali ovisno o vrsti studija kojeg pohađaju (P ≤ 0,001). Medijan odgovora na pitanja iz znanja o COVID-19 je za sve studente medicine bio 16 (14,50-16), a dentalne medicine 15 (14-16). Studenti prvih godina studija pokazali su lošije znanje u odnosu na ostale godine (P = 0,006). Tijekom prvog ograničenja kretanja studenti su izbjegavali nepotrebno napuštati dom (92,2 %) i koristiti javni prijevoz (99,1 %). Prali su ruke toplom vodom i sapunom u trajanju od 20 sekundi (96,2 %), izbjegavali su bliske kontakte (91,9 %), te su nosili masku (70,1 %) ili rukavice (52,9 %). Nema razlike u znanju ispitanika ovisno o njihovom ponašanju tijekom ograničenja kretanja. Svega se 11,0 % ispitanika bojalo za svoje zdravlje, dok se njih 58,1 % bojalo za zdravlje članova svoje obitelji. Zaključak: Istraživanje je pokazalo kako ispitanici imaju dobro znanje i pozitivne stavove o COVID-19 bolesti. Budući da je većina ispitanika navela da na studiju nije prošla edukaciju o mjerama zaštite i prevencije vezano uz COVID-19 infekciju, preporučuje se pokrenuti edukaciju., Objectives: This questioner – based online study has assessed attitudes and knowledge among students of the University of Split School of Medicine. Materials and methods: This cross – sectional study has been conducted during May 2020 via Internet questionnaire. The knowledge and attitudes about COVID-19 of 344 examinee (189 students of the School of Medicine, 155 students of Dental Medicine) have been assessed through 50 questions divided into five sections. Statistical analysis has been conducted by Mann – Whitney or Kruskal Wallis 1 – way ANOVA test. Results: The level of students’ knowledge has been assessed by the number of correct answers, while the highest score was 17. Forty-nine students (14.2%) have given all the correct answers. Furthermore, 85.5% have good knowledge about COVID–19 infection. There is no significant difference among students regarding gender (P = 0.169) and age (P = 0.260), but the kind of school they attend had an important role (P ≤ 0.001). Median value of answers to questions about COVID–19 was for all students of the School of Medicine 16 (14.50-16), while for the students of Dental Medicine it was 15 (14 – 16). The results of the first-year students have been worse compared to others (P = 0.006). During the first lockdown students avoided leaving their homes unnecessarily (92.2%) and using public transport (99.1%). They washed hands using warm water and soap for 20 seconds (96.2%) and wore masks (70.1%) or gloves (52.9%). There is no difference in the examinees’ knowledge regarding their behavior during the lockdown. Only 11.0% examinees were concerned about their health, while 58.1% was concerned about the health of their family members. Conclusion: This study has shown that examinees have good knowledge and positive attitudes towards COVID–19 disease. Since the majority of examinees mentioned that they hadn’t been educated about the protection and prevention regarding COVID–19 infection, educational campaign is recommended.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the correlations between IQ test scores performed through the Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices (APM) and cognitive testing through the Complex Reactionmeter Drenovac (CRD) test battery. Subjects and methods: From 2017-2019, 224 medical students at the University of Split School of Medicine (USSM) studying in the English and Croatian programme were recruited for this study. The IQ scores of the students were assessed using Raven’s APM where students had 30 minutes to complete 36 items of the abstract reasoning test. The computerised test of CRD-series was used for testing reaction times of light stimulus perception (CRD311), complex psychomotor limb coordination (CRD411) and solving simple arithmetic operations (CRD11). The total test solving time (TTST) and the minimum single task solving time (MinT), were analyzed. Results: On test of convergent thinking (CRD11), task solving times were shorter in students with a higher APM score (r = -0.48 for TTST and r = -0.44 for MinT; P < 0.001 for both tests. The light signal position discrimination test (CRD311) had shorter task solving times in correlation with a greater APM score (r = -0.30 for TTST and r = -0.33 for MinT, P < 0.001 for both variables). The test of operative thinking (CRD411) also demonstrated a negative correlation between task solving times and APM scores and with a higher APM score, task solving times were shorter (r = -0.40 for TTST and r = -0.30 for MinT, P < 0.001 for both). Men displayed a significantly shorter TTST than women on these tests; CRD11 (97.52 ± 18.82s vs. 107.69 ± 20.57s, P < 0.001), CRD311(27.13±2.17s vs. 28.13±2.46s, P = 0.002) and on CRD411 (26.93 ± 5.13s vs. 30.77±7.26s, P < 0.001). Conclusion: This study concludes that achieving a higher APM score is associated with a greater performance on the CRD-series tests, and therefore greater cognitive abilities for convergent thinking, operative thinking and speed of perception. Men overall also were slightly better than women on these tests., Ciljevi: Cilj ove studije je istražiti povezanost između inteligencije ispitane pomoću Ravenovih naprednih progresivnih matrica (APM) i kognitivnih sposobnosti ispitanih testovima Complex Reactionmeter Drenovac (CRD) serije. Materijali i metode: Od 2017. do 2019. godine u ovom istraživanju sudjelovalo je 224 studenta medicine Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Splitu koji studiraju na engleskom ili hrvatskom programu. Inteligencija studenata izmjerena je pomoću Ravenovih APM-a gdje su studenti tijekom 30 minuta rješavali 36 zadataka testa apstraktnog rasuđivanja. Kompjuterizirani test CRD serije korišten je za ispitivanje vremena reakcije prilikom percepcije svjetlosnih podražaja (CRD311), složene psihomotoričke koordinacije udova (CRD411) i rješavanja jednostavnih aritmetičkih operacija (CRD11). Od rezultata postignutim na testovima analizirani su ukupno vrijeme rješavanja testa (TTST) i najkraće vrijeme rješavanja jednog zadatka (MinT). Rezultati: Na testu konvergentnog mišljenja (CRD11) vrijeme rješavanja zadataka bilo je kraće u studenata s višim APM rezultatom (r = -0,48 za TTST i r = -0,44 za MinT; P

Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the attitudes and beliefs of medical students in English and in Croatian, Dental medicine, and Pharmacy students at the University of s split school of medicine (USSM) in Split, Croatia and the extent to which the back pain myths were accepted. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out amongst the student population enrolled at USSM. An online questionnaire was administered to 1,100 students in all academic years and was made accessible online between May-October 2020. Data were collected with consent, and participation was voluntary, anonymous, and without compensation. Results: A total of 311 students, out of 1,100 enrolled at the USSM participated in this study. The median age of the participants was 21.0 (18-32) years and student participants were between the age of 18 and 32 years. A minority of student respondents (26%) self-reported a personal experience with acute or chronic low back pain (LBP), and only 18% reported having sought the help of a healthcare professional for their symptoms. Overall, a higher proportion of medical students in Croatian and Pharmacy students (44% and 42% respectively) correctly rejected the back pain myths than did the medical students in English (40%) or Dental medicine students (37%). The majority of students across all study programs (54%) believed that backpain is disabling. The myth with the greatest difference in correct responses across study programs was that ‘there is no real treatment for back trouble’. Forty seven percent of medical students in English agreed with this statement, compared to 18% of medical students in Croatian, Dental medicine, and Pharmacy. A greater proportion of students endorsed alternative treatment regimen for back pain (26%) than they did a surgical approach (19%) or pharmacological approach (14%). Although we did observe differences between year of study, we did not find a correlation between years of training with the number of correct responses. Female respondents were more likely to reject bedrest as a treatment then males (50% female vs 39% male). Male respondents were more likely to reject alternative medicine (42% male vs 26% female) and a surgical approach (43% vs 31%) as the only way to treat back pain. Conclusion: This study confirmed that students at USSM do believe some of the back pain myths, though to a lesser degree than the general population based on data reported in the literature. Additional training regarding chronic pain and the introduction of the back pain myths into medical school curricula should be explored in order to foster the education of clinicians in order for students to endorse an evidence-based approach in their future clinical practice., Ciljevi: Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati stavove i uvjerenja studenata medicine na engleskom i hrvatskom jeziku, dentalne medicine i farmacije na Medicinskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Splitu (MEFST) o križobolji i u kojoj mjeri vjeruju mitovima o križobolji. Materijali i metode: Provedeno je presječno istraživanje među studentskom populacijom MEFST-a. Online upitnik bio je dostupan između svibnja i listopada 2020. godine za 1100 studenata svih akademskih godina. Podaci su prikupljeni uz pristanak, a sudjelovanje je bilo dobrovoljno, anonimno i bez naknade. Rezultati: Ukupno 311 studenta sudjelovalo je u ovom istraživanju. Prosječna dob bila je 21 godinu (18-32), a studenti su bili u dobi između 18 i 32 godine. Manjina ispitanika (26%) prijavila je osobno iskustvo s akutnom ili kroničnom križoboljom, a samo 18% izjavilo je da je zatražilo liječničku pomoć. Veći udio studenata medicine u na hrvatskom jeziku i studenata farmacije (44% odnosno 42%) ispravno je odbacilo mitove o križobolji, u odnosu na studente medicine na engleskom (40%) ili dentalne medicine (37%). Većina studenata (54%) vjerovala je da križobolja onesposobljava pacijente. Mit s najvećom razlikom u točnim odgovorima na studijskim programima bio je da 'ne postoji pravi način liječenja križobolje. Četrdeset sedam posto studenata medicine na engleskom jeziku složilo se s ovom tvrdnjom, u usporedbi s 18% studenata medicine na hrvatskom jeziku, dentalne medicine i farmacije. Veći dio studenata prihvaća kao opciju alternativne načine liječenja križobolje (26%) nego kirurški pristup (19%) ili farmakološki pristup (14%). Iako smo uočili razlike između odgovora studenata različitih godina studija, nismo pronašli korelaciju između godina studiranja i broja točnih odgovora. Studentice u većem postotku odbacuju ležanje u krevetu kao tretman liječenja križobolje od studenata (50% u odnosu na 39%). Studenti su u većem postotku nego studentice odbacili alternativnu medicinu (42% i 26%) te kirurški pristup (43% i 31%) kao jedini način liječenja križobolje. Zaključak: Ovo istraživanje je potvrdilo da studenti MEFST-a vjeruju u neke od mitova o križobolji, iako u manjoj mjeri od opće populacije na temelju podataka iz literature. Potrebna je bolja edukacija o križobolji u nastavnim programima kako bi se potaknulo i usmjerilo studente na pristup križobolji i općenito medicini zasnovan na dokazima u svojoj budućoj kliničkoj praksi.

Cilj Cilj istraživanja je ispitati osobine ličnosti studenata studija sestrinstva potrebne za kvalitetno obavljanje profesionalnih zadataka u timskom radu. Utvrditi razlikuju li se medicinske sestre (Ž) od tehničara (M) u naglašenosti osobina te razlikuju li se studentice medicine (Ž) od studenata (M) u naglašenosti osobina. Utvrditi na temelju koje osobine svi ispitanici kreiraju lažnu sliku o sebi. Metode U istraživanju je korišten Big Five upitnik (12). Upitnik se koristi kako bi se napravila procjena pet velikih dimenzija ličnosti u okviru Peto faktorskog modela. Upitnik se koristi isključivo za testiranje osobe starijih od 16 godina. Big five upitnik se sastoji od pet velikih dimenzija: Energija (E), Ugodnost (U), Savjesnost (S), Emocionalna stabilnost (ES), Mentalna otvorenost (MO) ). Upitnik se sastoji od 132 čestice. Ispitanici su dužni izraziti stupanj slaganja na ljestvici od 1 do 5, gdje 1 označava u potpunosti netočno za mene a 5 označava u potpunosti točno za mene. Rezultati Studenti sestrinstva pokazuju vrlo nisku razinu energije, ugodnosti, savjesnosti, emocionalne stabilnosti, mentalne otvorenosti te time ne iskazuju osobine ličnosti potrebne za kvalitetno obavljanje profesionalnih zadataka u timskom radu. Postoji značajna razlika između studenata sestrinstva i studenata medicine u osobinama emocionalne stabilnosti i savjesnosti, dok u ostalim osobinama se ne nalazi značajne statističke razlike. Razina laganja odnosno kreiranja lažne slike o sebi nije se razlikovala među promatranim skupinama. U ispitivanju s obzirom na spol promatranih skupina razlike u energiji, savjesnosti, emocionalnoj stabilnosti, mentalnoj otvorenosti te laganju nije utvrđeno postojanje razlike. Veća razina ugodnosti je utvrđena među studenticama promatranih studija u odnosu na studente. Promatrajući studente sestrinstva nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u energiji, ugodnosti, savjesnosti, emocionalnoj stabilnosti, mentalnoj otvorenosti te laganju između studenata i studentica. Promatrajući studente medicine utvrđena je veća razina ugodnosti, emocionalne stabilnosti i savjesnosti kod studentica medicine u odnosu na studente medicine, dok u energiji, mentalnoj otvorenosti i laganju postojanje razlike nije uočeno. Zaključci Studenti sestrinstva nemaju posebno izražene potrebne osobine ličnosti za kvalitetno obavljanje profesionalnih zadataka u timskom radu. Postoje značajne razlike u osobinama ličnosti između studenata sestrinstva i medicine. Značajna razlika između studentica i studenata oba studija nalazi se u samo jednoj dimenziji – ugodnosti. Postoje značajne razlike u naglašenosti osobina između studenata i studentica medicine, dok među studenticama sestrinstva nisu utvrđene razlike. Goal The aim of the research is to examine the characteristics of student nursing students needed for quality performance of professional tasks in teamwork. To determine nurses (F) differ from technicians (M) in accentuated traits that differ from student medicine (F) from students (M) in accentuated traits. Determine on the basis of which traits all respondents create a false image of themselves. Methods The Big Five questionnaire was used in the study (12). The questionnaire is used to make an assessment of the five major dimensions of personality within the Fifth Factor Model. The questionnaire is used exclusively for testing a person over 16 years of age. The Big Five questionnaire consists of five major dimensions: Energy (E), Comfort (U), Conscientiousness (S), Emotional Stability (ES), Mental Openness (MO)). The questionnaire consists of 132 items. Respondents are required to express a degree of agreement on a scale of 1 to 5, where 1 indicates completely incorrect for me and 5 indicates completely incorrect for me. The results Nursing students show a very low level of energy, comfort, conscientiousness, emotional stability, mental openness and thus do not show the personality traits necessary for quality performance of professional tasks in teamwork. There is a significant difference between nursing students and medical students in the traits of emotional stability and conscientiousness, while there are no significant statistical differences in other traits. The level of lying, in creating a false image of oneself, did not differ between the observed groups. In the study with regard to the gender of the observed groups, differences in energy, conscientiousness, emotional stability, mental openness and lying were not found to exist. A higher level of comfort was found among female students of the observed studies compared to male students. Observing nursing students, no statistically significant difference was found in energy, comfort, conscientiousness, emotional stability, mental openness, and lying between male and female students. Observing medical students, a higher level of comfort, emotional stability and conscientiousness was found in medical students compared to medical students, while in energy, mental openness and lying, the difference was not observed. Findings Nursing students do not possess the necessary personality traits for quality performance of professional tasks in teamwork. There are significant differences in personality traits between nursing and medical students. A significant difference between the students of both studies is in only one dimension - comfort. There are significant differences in the emphasis of traits between male and female medical students, while no differences were found among nursing students.

Introduction: mental health of university students is the area with increasing concern around the world due to the fact that this population is prone to depression, anxiety and stress. Anxiety disorders are one of the most common mental health problems among faculty students. Furthermore, it is known that medical students show greater prevalence of anxiety symptoms compared with other population groups and peers. Goals: to examine the prevalence of anxiety in the population of faculty students, and to determine whether there are differences in its appearance between the sexes and years of study. Material and methods: the study sample consisted of 201 students of the Sarajevo University Medical School, of which 63.2% were women. Anxiety is determined using Hamilton's inventory for anxiety and sociodemographic scale. Results and discussion: out of the total sample 46.8% of respondents showed signs of anxiety. The average score at the Hamilton anxiety scale amounted to 15.1±10.6 with a median of 12. Hamilton scale mean score for females (17.3±11.2) has been proven statistically significantly higher than male respondents with an average score of 11.3±8.3. With regard to the year of study anxiety score was higher in students of the first three years, 19.2±9.3 (range 5-37) compared to students on the last three years of the study 12.5±10.6 (range 0-47) with statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Conclusion: medical studies are high risk area for mental health problems. Female students show greater risk for anxiety, which declines over the course of the study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Razvoj teorija motivacije je relativno nova pojava jer potiče iz dvadesetog veka. Motivacija za učenje istraživana je u okviru različitih teorija motivacije.U ovom istraživanju motivacija za učenjeje definisana kao želja za učenjem koja kod studenta postoji kada započinje studije medicine. Strategije učenja određuju pristup postizanju ciljeva učenja. Neke od tehnika upravljanja vremenom, čitanja, pravljenja beležaka i pisanja zadataka predstavljaju teorijski pristup strategijama učenja u ovom istraživanju. Cilj ove studije bio je da se ispita odnos motivacije, strategije učenja i akademskog postignuća kod studenata medicine. Instrument tipa da-nedizajniran je za prikupljanje podataka. Intenzitet motivacije određen je subjektivnom procenom studenata na dva nivoa. Broj stavki za potkategoriju koja se odnosi na strategije učenja je 17 (Cronbachova alfa: 0,60). Ocena o intenzitetu motivacije i strategijama učenja izračunata je na osnovu ukupnih bodova za svaku stavku. Akademski uspeh izračunat je u vidu proseka ocena. Studija je sprovedena na uzorku od 224 studenta (169 devojaka, 55 mladića) sa Medicinskog fakulteta Univerziteta Sv. Kiril i Metodije u Skoplju, Republika Severna Makedonija. Ispitanici su na pitanja odgovarali elektronskim putem (u februaru 2020. godine). Istraživanje je bilo anonimno i dobrovoljno. Oko 60% studenata motivisano je za studije medicinskih nauka. Gotovo svi ispitanici primenjuju strategije učenja na srednjem nivou (69,64%). Otkrili smo umerenu povezanost motivacije i akademskog postignuća učenika (r = ,35), strategije učenja i akademskog postignuća učenika (r = ,33), motivacije i strategija učenja učenika (r = ,32). Rezultati ovog istraživanja ukazuju na to da je potrebno uvesti procedure u nastavnu praksu na studijama medicine, kako bi se razvio veći stepen motivacije za učenje kod studenata i efikasnije strategije učenja., The development of theories of motivation is a fairly recent phenomenon dating back only to the twentieth century. Motivation to learn has been explored within different theories of motivation. In this research motivation to learn is defined as “desire to learn which a student takes with themselves to the studies of medicine”. Learning strategies determine the approach for achieving learning objectives. Some of the techniques for managing time, reading, making notes, and writing assignments are theoretical approach to learning strategies in this research. The objective of this study was to examine relationship between motivation, learning strategy and academic achievement among medical students. A “yes-no” type instrument was designed for data collection. The intensity of motivation is determined by a subjective assessment of students at two levels. The number of items for subscale for learning strategies is 17 (Cronbach’s alpha, 0.60). The score on motivation intensity and learning strategies is calculated by total points for each item. Academic performance was calculated in the form of grade point average. The study was conducted on a sample of 224 students (169 females, 55 male) from the Faculty of Medicine at Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, Republic of North Macedonia. Respondents answered the questions electronically in February, 2020. The survey was anonymous and voluntary. About 60% of students are motivated to study medical sciences. Almost all respondents practice effective learning at the middle-level (69.64%). We found moderate correlation between motivation and students’ academic achievement (r=.35), learning strategies and academic achievement (r=.33), and motivation and learning strategies (r=.32). The results of this research indicate the need for introducing procedures in teaching practice of medical studies in order to develop a greater degree of students’ motivation to learn and more effective learning strategies.

Cilj istraživanja: Cilj istraživanja bio je utvrditi pojavnost anksioznosti uzrokovane pandemijom COVID-19 među studentima 1. i 6. godine studija medicine Medicinskog fakulteta u Osijeku te usporediti pojavnost anksioznosti među studentima prema spolu. Nacrt studije: Presječno istraživanje. Ispitanici i metode: Istraživanje je provedeno nad studentima 1. i 6. godine studija medicine Medicinskog fakulteta u Osijeku. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo ukupno 100 ispitanika. Instrument istraživanja bio je anonimni online upitnik koji se sastojao od dva dijela: sociodemografskog upitnika, te širokodostupne Zungove skale za samoprocjenu anksioznosti. Rezultati: Istraživanje je uključivalo 45 studenta 1. godine (45 %) i 55 studenata 6. godine (55 %). Studenata ženskog spola bilo je 67 (67 %), a muškog spola 33 (33 %). Dobivena ukupna prevalencija anksioznosti, izazvana pandemijom COVID-19, iznosila je 14 %. Prevalencija anksioznosti među studentima 1. godine iznosila je 20 %, a među studentima 6. godine 9, 1 %. Od sveukupno 14 otkrivenih anksioznih studenata, čak njih 13 bilo je ženskog spola. Zaključak: Među studentima 1. i 6. godine medicine Medicinskog fakulteta u Osijeku, postoje ispitanici kod kojih je prisutna klinički značajna anksioznost, uzrokovana pandemijom COVID-19. Dobivena prevalencija anksioznosti kod osječkih studenata medicine, izazvane pandemijom COVID-19, niža je od prevalencije anksioznosti kod osječkih studenata medicine prije pandemije. Prevalencija anksioznosti među studentima 1. godine, veća je od prevalencije anksioznosti među studentima 6. godine, ali ne značajno. Prevalencija anksioznosti među studentima ženskog spola, značajno je veća od prevalencije anksioznosti među studentima muškog spola.

Ispitanici i postupci: Istraživanje je provedeno na ukupno 140 studenata. Podaci su dobiveni putem anketnog upitnika uporabom aplikacije Google forms. Stavovi o utjecaju pandemije na nastavu ocijenjeni su putem 10 tvrdnji. Određivanje razina percipiranog stresa temeljilo se na PSS (engl. Percived Stress Scale) upitniku, a težina simptoma povezanih sa stresom po pitanju COVID-19 ocijenila se na temelju IES-COVID-19 (engl. Impact on Event Scale-COVID19) upitniku. Rezultati: Većina ispitanika je imala strah od manjka znanja uslijed nastave na daljinu i pandemije COVID-19 (68,6%). Također, većina ispitanika je bila slabije motivirana za učenje prilikom obavljanja nastave na daljinu (70,7%). Većina studenata je bila pod umjerenim razinama stresa ispitanim PSS upitnikom (61%), a među njima su studentice, u odnosu na studente imale statistički značajno viši PSS zbroj (P=0,016). Glavnina ispitanika je imala slabe traumtske simptome stresa ispitane IES-COVID-19 upitnikom (62%.), dok je manji dio imao umjerene traumatske simptome (28%), najmanji dio teške simptome (10%). Značajno viši IES-COVID-19 zbroj su imali studenti dentalne medicine i framacije nasuprot studenata medicine (P=0,006). Studenti koji su pokazali strah od manje količine znanja imali su statistički značajno više razine stresa (P

Pozadina: Sustavni pregledi smatraju se najvišom razinom dokaza u medicini. No, konsenzus o definiciji sustavnih pregleda ne postoji, nepoznato je mijenjaju li se stavovi urednika o sustavnim pregledima i nepoznato je postoje li učinkovite intervencije za unaprjeđenje znanja o sustavnim pregledima. Cilj: Ova disertacija imala je tri osnovna cilja: 1) analizirati definicije sustavnih pregleda u zdravstvenoj literaturi, analizirati navedene elemente definicija i predložiti temelj za eksplicitnu, nedvosmislenu definiciju sustavnog pregleda; 2) provesti novu analizu stavova urednika o sustavnim pregledima kao originalnim istraživanjima te; 3) analizirati učinkovitost kratke edukacijske intervencije na unaprjeđenje znanja o sustavnim pregledima. Metode: U prvo istraživanje uključeni su pregledi sustavnih pregleda, meta-epidemiološka istraživanja i udžbenici iz epidemiologije. Prikupljene su definicije sustavnih pregleda kao i kriteriji uključivanja i isključivanja koji su upućivali na definiciju koji su autori koristili. Pojedinačni elementi definicija sustavnog pregleda su izdvojeni, kategorizirani i kvantificirani. U drugom su istraživanju, putem e-pošte, urednici biomedicinskih časopisa upitani smatraju li sustavne preglede originalnim istraživanjima, objavljuju li sustavne preglede u svojim časopisima te u kojim odjeljcima časopisa. Pretražen je PubMed u potrazi za sustavnim pregledima (ili metaanalizama) objavljenim u uključenim časopisima u 2017. godini. Ukoliko nisu pronađeni sustavni pregledi ili metaanalize, časopisi su ručno pretraženi. Urednici su pozvani na sudjelovanje u popratnom kvalitativnom istraživanju provedenom putem intervjua. U trećem istraživanju osmišljena je kratka edukacijska intervencija o sustavnim pregledima te je provedeno kvalitativno istraživanje putem intervjua među zdravstvenim radnicima o njihovom mišljenju o navedenoj edukaciji. Potom se proveo randomizirani kontrolirani pokus u kojem je uspoređena kratka edukacijska intervencija s kontrolnom intervencijom koja se sastojala od PRISMA popisa za provjeru. Ispitanici u pokusu bili su studenti zdravstvenih studija. Rezultati: U prvom istraživanju među 535 analiziranih izvora informacija, u 188 (35%) izvora pronađena je definicija sustavno pregleda. U definicijama sustavnih pregleda najčešće su pronađene reference na Cochrane i PRISMA izjavu. Pronađeno je 188 različitih elemenata sustavnih pregleda koji su kategorizirani u 14 kategorija. Najveći broj elemenata definicija sustavnih pregleda bilo je iz kategorija pretrage (N = 51), analize/sinteze (N = 23), općenito metoda (N = 22), kvalitete/pristranosti/procjene/valjanosti (N = 22) i cilja/istraživačkog pitanja (N = 13). Spomenutih pet kategorija bile su i najčešće korištena kombinacija kategorija pronađenih u definicijama sustavnih pregleda. U drugom istraživanju sudjelovala su 73 urednika, koji su predstavljali 72 (62%) uključenih časopisa. Pedeset i dva (80%) urednika smatralo je sustavne preglede originalnim istraživanjima ili same po sebi (65%) ili ukoliko sadrže metaanalizu (15%) te su gotovo svi urednici (91%) izjavili kako objavljuju sustavne preglede. U usporedbi s rezultatima istraživanja provedenog na ključnim kliničkim časopisima 2009. godine, sličan udio urednika smatralo je sustavne preglede originalnim istraživanjima (71%), prihvaćalo sustavne preglede kao originalna istraživanja pod određenim uvjetima poput sadržavanja metaanalize (14%) te je sličan udio objavljivao sustavne preglede (94%). Provedeni intervjui pokazali su kako su urednici koristili različite kriterije prilikom odlučivanja jesu li sustavni pregledi originalna istraživanja, uključujući korištenu metodologiju, ponovljivost, originalnost ideje i stupanj noviteta. U trećem istraživanju provedeno je 12 kvalitativnih intervjua o edukacijskoj intervenciji o sustavnim pregledima. Temeljem odgovora ispitanika, edukacija je prilagođena i pripremljena za randomizirani kontrolirani pokus. Randomizirano je 589 ispitanika koji su primili ili novu edukacijsku intervenciju ili PRISMA popis za provjeru. Intervencijska je skupina imala 23% više točnih odgovora nakon provedene intervencije u usporedbi s kontrolnom skupinom. Zaključak: Trenutno korištene definicije sustavnih pregleda su nejasne i dvosmislene, često koristeći izraze poput jasno, eksplicitno i sustavno, bez daljnjeg pojašnjavanja. Predlaže se specifičnija definicija sustavnog pregleda s konačnim ciljem motiviranja istraživačke zajednice na uspostavljanje jasne i nedvosmislene definicije ove vrste istraživanja. Većina urednika ključnih kliničkih časopisa smatralo je sustavne preglede originalnim istraživanjima. Nije postojao jedinstven pristup definiranju što čini sustavni pregled, ili bilo koje drugo istraživanje, originalnim. Novo osmišljena kratka edukacijska intervencija učinkovita je za kratkotrajno unaprjeđenje znanja o sustavnim pregledima te su potrebna daljnja istraživanja na tu temu., Background: Systematic reviews (SRs) are considered the highest level of evidence in medicine. However, there is no consensus definition of SRs, it is unclear whether the attitudes of editors towards SRs are changing, and whether there are effective interventions for improving knowledge about SRs. Aim: This thesis had three aims: 1) to analyze the definition of a SR in health care literature, elements of the definitions that are used and to propose a starting point for an explicit and nonambiguous SR definition; 2) to conduct a new analysis about editors' opinion regarding SRs as original research; and 3) to analyze the effectiveness of a short educational intervention for improving knowledge about SRs. Methods: In the first study, we included overviews of systematic reviews (OSRs), metaepidemiological studies and epidemiology textbooks. We extracted the definitions of SRs, as well as the inclusion and exclusion criteria that could indicate which definition of a SR the authors used. We extracted individual elements of SR definitions, categorized and quantified them. In the second study, we contacted editors via email and asked them whether they considered SRs original research, whether they published SRs in the journal and, if yes, in which section. We searched PubMed for any SRs (or meta-analyses) published in the included journals in 2017; if we did not find any, we hand-searched these journals. Editors were invited to participate in a follow-up qualitative interview study. In the third study, we first created a short educational intervention about SRs and conducted qualitative interviews with health care workers to obtain their insights. Then, we conducted a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which we compared the short educational intervention with the control intervention that consisted of a PRISMA checklist. The eligible participants were health sciences students. Results: In the first study, among the 535 analyzed sources of information, 188 (35%) provided a definition of a SR. The most commonly used reference points for the definitions of SRs were Cochrane and the PRISMA statement. We found 188 different elements of SR definitions and divided them into 14 categories. The highest number of SR definition elements was found in categories related to searching (N = 51), analysis/synthesis (N = 23), overall methods (N = 22), quality/bias/appraisal/validity (N = 22) and aim/question (N = 13). The same five categories were also the most commonly used combination of categories in the SR definitions. In the second study, 73 editors representing 72 (62%) journals were included. Fifty-two (80%) editors considered SRs original research, either for any type of SR (65%) or only for SRs with a meta-analysis (15%) and almost all (91%) of editors published SRs. Compared with the results of the 2009 study of Core Clinical Journals, a similar proportion of editors considered SRs to be original studies (71%), accepted SRs as original on certain condition such as presence of meta-analysis (14%) or published SRs (94%). Interviews with editors showed that they used various criteria to decide whether a SR is original research, including methodology, reproducibility, originality of idea and level of novelty. In the third study, 12 qualitative interviews were conducted regarding the educational intervention about SRs. Based on their feedback, the education was modified and prepared for the RCT. We randomized 589 participants, who received either our new educational intervention or a PRISMA checklist. The intervention group had 23% more correct answers after the intervention compared to the control group. Conclusion: Currently used definitions of SRs are vague and ambiguous, often using terms such as clear, explicit and systematic, without further elaboration. We proposed a more specific definition of a systematic review, with the ultimate aim of motivating the research community to establish a clear and unambiguous definition of this type of research. The majority of editors of core clinical journals considered that SRs are original research. There was no uniform approach to defining what makes a SR, or any study, original. Our newly designed short educational intervention is effective for improving short-term knowledge about SRs and should be further tested.

Prethodna istraživanja pokazala su pozitivan utjecaj korištenja farmakogenomike u svakodnevnoj kliničkoj praksi. Primjerice, farmakogenomika omogućava farmaceutskoj industriji razvoj lijekova koji ciljano djeluju na specifične bolesti i poremećaje u organizmu, čime se povećava terapijski učinak, a smanjuje mogućnost oštećenja zdravog tkiva. Istraživanja su pokazala kako farmakogenomika može pridonijeti pravilnom odabiru lijeka na osnovu genet-skog profila pojedinog pacijenta, čime se ubrzava proces liječenja te smanjuje rizik od nastanka nuspojava. Među¬tim, za optimalnu integraciju farmakogenomike u kliničku praksu, nužna je i odgovarajuća edukacija zdravstvenih djelatnika o farmakogenomici. Zbog navedenog, cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati stavove studenata farmacije, medicine i dentalne medicine na Sveučilištu u Splitu o farmakogenomici. Istraživanje je bilo ustrojeno kao anketno presječno istraživanje i provedeno je u listopadu 2020. godine. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo ukupno 503 studenta studija farmacije, medicine i dentalne medicine na Sveučilištu u Splitu. Rezultati su pokazali da je samo 3 % stu¬denata navelo da pati od neke kronične nasljedne bolesti. Nadalje, rezultati istraživanja su pokazali da bi 58, 2 % studenata razmotrilo genetsko testiranje ukoliko bi na taj način mogli saznati koje bolesti će potencijalno razviti u budućnosti. Analizira rezultata istraživanja pokazala je da su studenti farmacije iskazali sveukupno pozitivnije stavove o farmakogenomici u usporedbi sa studentima medicine i dentalne medicine. Čak 80, 7 % studenata farmacije smatra da bi farmakogenomika trebala biti važan dio kurikuluma u usporedbi sa 44, 3 % studenata dentalne medicine i 49, 6 % studenata medicine (p
