“…The result of the SEM model is that the influence of knowledge on related behaviors is indirect, and attitude is one of the moderating variables between them [ 12 ]. The KAP model is often used in public health research to explore people’s health behaviors and their changes, such as COVID-19, school education, HIV, Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), diabetes and osteoporosis [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ]. After formal education of osteoporosis, professionals may use scales to assess osteoporosis knowledge or health beliefs, although such scales only measure osteoporosis cogitation, without attitudes or behaviors under treatment [ 20 ].…”

This research develops the Osteoporosis Knowledge, Attitude and Behaviors Questionnaire (OKABQ) with the intent to evaluate the levels of osteoporosis knowledge, attitude and behavior change by developing and validating the OKABQ while establishing a mediation model of the research. A quantitative, descriptive and instrumental study was conducted in two phases: Phase I—development of the scale through Delphi Method by osteoporosis experts; and Phase II—evaluation of the validity and reliability of the scale and construction of a mediation model using SmartPLS. In Phase I, the content validity index (CVI) of the questionnaire was higher than 0.96 and the inter-rater reliability (IRR) kappa was 1.00. In Phase II, exploratory factor analysis showed that two predominating factors of attitude as a mediation were addressed by the 26-item OKABQ. The indirect effect results from the estimated model indicate that attitude mediates the relationship between knowledge and behaviors (β = 0.114, t = 2.627, p < 0.001), which is positive and statistically significant. We concluded that the OKABQ is a valid measure of osteoporosis knowledge, attitudes and behaviors for women with osteoporosis. These assessment results could assist healthcare providers in mitigating insufficiency in health education and help patients better adapt to a more active bone-healthy lifestyle.

“…More efforts are needed to prevent and manage the tremendous burden of CKD. Therefore, efforts to prevent and manage CKD in Saudi Arabia and around the world include early detection and treatment of risk factors such as DM and hypertension, lifestyle modifications such as healthy diet habits and regular exercise, and medication management to slow the progression of CKD [1] [5].…”

According to recent epidemiological data, chronic kidney diseases (CKDs) affect approximately 10% of the global population. Like many countries, CKD is a significant public health issue in Saudi Arabia. The prevalence of CKD in Saudi Arabia is estimated to be around 4.5% of the adult population, with a higher prevalence in older age groups. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are a class of oral medications used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In addition to their glucose-lowering effects, SGLT2i have been shown to have beneficial effects on kidney function in patients with or without T2DM. Therefore, a Saudi task force gathered to develop an explicit, evidence-based consensus on SGLT2i use in CKD Saudi patients. A panel of 14 experts made up a task force. An initial concept proposal was obtained. The proposal was divided into several topics discussed on 24 May 2023. A literature review was carried out. The literature search was completed on 3 rd How to cite this paper: Alsheikh, A.

Introduction Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become more common in recent decades, putting significant strain on healthcare systems worldwide. CKD is a global health issue that can lead to severe complications such as kidney failure and death. Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the actual causes of the alarming increase of kidney failure cases in Saudi Arabia using the supersaturated design analysis and edge design analysis. Materials and methods A cross-sectional questionnaire was distributed to the general population in the KSA, and data were collected using Google Forms. A total of 401 responses were received. To determine the actual causes of kidney failure, edge and supersaturated designs analysis methods were used, which resulted in statistical significance. All variables were studied from factor h1 to factor h18 related to the causes of kidney failure. Results The supersaturated analysis method revealed that the reasons for the increase in kidney failure cases are as follows: h9(Bad diet), h8(Recurrent urinary tract infection), h1 (Not drinking fluids), h6 (Lack of exercise), h14 (drinking from places not designated for valleys and reefs), h18 (Rheumatic diseases), h10 (Smoking and alcohol consumption), h13 (Direct damage to the kidneys), h2 (take medications), h17 (excessive intake of soft drinks), h12 (Infection), h5 (heart disease), h3 (diabetes), h4 (pressure disease), h15 (Dyes used in X-rays), and h11 (The presence of kidney stones) are all valid. The design analysis method by edges revealed that the following factors contributed to an increase in kidney failure cases: h8 (Recurrent urinary tract infection), h6 (Lack of exercise), h7 (Obesity), and h11. Conclusion The findings showed that there were causes of kidney failure that led to the statistical significance, which is h8 (Recurrent urinary tract infection) and h11 (The presence of kidney stones)
