BACKGROUND
Despite the increase in hereditary disease in Arab countries due to the high rates of consanguineous marriages, research on community awareness of premarital screening (PMS) for disease carriers is still scarce.
AIM
To investigate knowledge and attitudes toward genetic PMS programs among university students in Libya.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire distributed to 421 Libyan students aged 18-25 years at the University of Tripoli.
RESULTS
Most of the participants (79%, n=316) agreed that a PMS program is important and expressed willingness to have PMS programs if they were advised to do so. Two-thirds of participants (67%, n=268) had heard of PMS programs, of whom (27.2%, n=73) heard of them from social media.
CONCLUSION
Most of the university students had good knowledge of PMS but poor knowledge of the hereditary disease targeted by PMS. Most of them had a positive attitude toward PMS.
背景
尽管由于近亲结婚率高，阿拉伯国家的遗传疾病有所增加，但关于社区对疾病携带者婚前筛查（PMS）的认识的研究仍然很少。
目的
调查利比亚大学生对基因婚前筛查项目的知识和态度。
方法
采用横断面研究，使用自行填写的问卷，对的黎波里大学421名年龄在18 - 25岁的利比亚学生进行调查。
结果
大多数参与者（79%，n = 316）认为婚前筛查项目很重要，并表示如果得到建议，愿意接受婚前筛查项目。三分之二的参与者（67%，n = 268）听说过婚前筛查项目，其中（27.2%，n = 73）是从社交媒体上听说的。
结论
大多数大学生对婚前筛查有较好的了解，但对婚前筛查所针对的遗传疾病了解不足。他们中的大多数人对婚前筛查持积极态度。
