Abstract:
Objective:Referring to the Code of Medical Research Integrity and Related Conduct, to investigate the current status of scientific research integrity management of tertiary medical institutions, and to understand the current status and possible problems of scientific research integrity construction in working mechanism, institutional specifications, education guidance, supervision and punishment of various institutions.Methods:An electronic questionnaire was distributed to 72 researchers covering 46 tertiary medical institutions. The research content included basic information about the institution, the construction of the management mechanism, and the current status of research integrity management.Results:All of the surveyed medical institutions established scientific research integrity systems, publicized the policy of scientific research integrity regularly, carried out self-inspection, and conveyed the cases of notifications and alerts.84.29% of units had ″related courses for academic norms/scientific research integrity″, training were set up in ″student enrollment″ for 82.86% of the units, in ″employee recruitment″ for 94.29% of the units, in "project application" for 84.29% of the units, etc. The incidence of research misconduct in medical institutions, in descending order, is improper authorship, duplicate application, split publication, failure to obtain ethical approval, and multiple submissions. The contributing factors came from the pressure of title promotion(72.86%), the lack of scientific research integrity knowledge (71.43%), and interest motivation(70%). The analysis showed that there was a correlation between the ″convenient and open channels for research misconduct complaints and reports″ and the occurrence of ″scientific research misconduct″.Conclusions:The tertiary medical institutions have well-established scientific research integrity management systems, have taken scientific research integrity as a regular management feature, and have used diversified publicity, education, and training methods to promote academic norms and knowledge of research integrity.
