Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of epilepsy patients regarding the ketogenic diet therapy: A cross‐sectional study by Xiuping Zhang, Meizhen Sun, Guofang Xue, Yongxiong Zhao, Taotao Du, Xueying Guan, Yong Xu

“…Multivariate analysis revealed that the attitude score (OR = 1.443, 95% CI: [1.296–1.607], p < 0.001) and an epilepsy duration of 5–10 years (OR = 3.086, 95% CI: [1.716–5.548], p < 0.001) were independently associated with positive practice. Additionally, Structural Equation Modeling indicated that knowledge (β = 0.034, p = 0.012) and attitude (β = 0.583, p = 0.010) directly influenced practice, while knowledge also directly affected attitude (β = 0.565, p = 0.013), with an indirect effect on practice through attitude (β = 0.329, p = 0.009). …”
