UNASSIGNED: The review followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Four databases were searched, and the inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied. Data from 17 relevant studies were analysed in Microsoft Excel using descriptive statistics. The risk of bias was assessed using a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.
UNASSIGNED: Medical students generally held positive perceptions about PRAS, particularly regarding career opportunities, specialised skills and the nature of the specialty. However, their awareness of the full scope of plastic surgery is limited, with a focus on cosmetic and aesthetic procedures. Social media and the internet significantly influenced the students\' perceptions, whereas personal experiences had a minor impact. Education and training in plastic surgery positively affected the students\' perceptions. Nevertheless, there is a need for improved representation of PRAS in medical school curricula and promotion of accurate information through reliable sources.
UNASSIGNED: Students exhibited a favourable attitude towards plastic surgery, but their knowledge of the specialty can be enhanced. Strengthening PRAS teaching in medical schools and ensuring accurate information dissemination can foster a deeper understanding and interest in this field. Large-scale studies with standardised protocols should be conducted in different countries to gain comprehensive insights tailored to specific educational contexts.
■审查遵循了PRISMA2020指南。搜索了四个数据库,并应用纳入和排除标准.使用描述性统计在MicrosoftExcel中分析了来自17项相关研究的数据。使用改良的纽卡斯尔-渥太华量表评估偏倚风险。
■医学生通常对PRAS持有积极的看法,特别是关于职业机会,专业技能和专业的性质。然而,他们对整容的认识是有限的,专注于美容和美学程序。社交媒体和互联网显著影响了学生的认知,而个人经历影响较小。整形外科的教育和培训对学生的认知产生了积极的影响。然而,有必要提高PRAS在医学院课程中的代表性,并通过可靠的来源促进准确的信息。
■学生对整形手术表现出良好的态度,但是他们的专业知识可以增强。加强医学院的PRAS教学并确保准确的信息传播可以增进对这一领域的了解和兴趣。应在不同国家/地区进行具有标准化协议的大规模研究,以获得针对特定教育环境的全面见解。
