Knowledge, attitudes, and practices among patients with diabetes mellitus and hyperuricemia toward disease self-management
This study demonstrates that patients with diabetes mellitus and hyperuricemia exhibit relatively proficient responses to certain items within the KAP dimensions. However, it also exposes a certain degree of inadequacy in the KAP level toward disease management. Interventions should focus on improving patients' understanding of their conditions while fostering positive attitudes, ultimately translating into better self-management practices.
