Lifestyle medicine (LM) is part of official educational goals in Swedish medical schools. We studied questions concerning 5 noncommunicable diseases: diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease (CHD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and stroke from 124 written examinations conducted between 2012 and 2015. LM knowledge yielded between 2% and 10%, whereas pharmacology-related knowledge yielded between 24% and 50%, of total points. The multiples at which pharmacology-related knowledge was valued higher than LM knowledge were 2.4 for COPD (P < .056), 4.3 for diabetes (P < .0001), 4.8 for hypertension (P < .0001), 5.2 for CHD (P < .0001), and 31.5 for stroke (P < .0001). Our results indicate that lifestyle-related knowledge, though covered by official teaching goals, is currently underrated in Swedish medical education.
生活方式医学(LM)是瑞典医学院校官方教育目标的一部分。我们研究了2012年至2015年间进行的124次笔试中有关5种非传染性疾病的问题:糖尿病、高血压、冠心病(CHD)、慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)和中风。生活方式医学知识在总分中占2%至10%,而药理学相关知识占24%至50%。药理学相关知识比生活方式医学知识更受重视的倍数在COPD方面为2.4(P <.056),糖尿病方面为4.3(P <.0001),高血压方面为4.8(P <.0001),冠心病方面为5.2(P <.0001),中风方面为31.5(P <.0001)。我们的结果表明,尽管官方教学目标涵盖了与生活方式相关的知识,但目前在瑞典医学教育中该知识被低估了。
