This study aimed to evaluate the levels of diabetes knowledge and medication adherence, along with their relationship, among high\u2010risk T2DM patients in a rural area of Vietnam. A cross\u2010sectional study was conducted at Quang Thanh General Hospital, a tertiary care hospital in Nghe An Province, Vietnam, between May and July 2024. Diabetes knowledge and adherence were assessed using the Vietnamese versions of the Spoken Knowledge in Low Literacy Patients with Diabetes (SKILLD) and the General Medication Adherence Scale (GMAS), respectively. Binary logistic regression was used to assess the association between diabetes knowledge and medication adherence. A total of 230 high\u2010risk, T2DM patients met the inclusion criteria and were included in the study. The mean age was 67.9\u2009\u00b1\u20096.6\u2009years, while 43.9% were male. The mean SKILLD score was 36.7\u2009\u00b1\u200920.03, with 82.6% classified as having low diabetes knowledge. For medication adherence, the mean GMAS score was 30.4\u2009\u00b1\u20093.07, with 16.1% of patients classified as being non\u2010adherent. Binary logistic regression showed that better knowledge significantly increased the likelihood of medication adherence (OR\u2009=\u20098.3, 95% CI: 1.1\u201364.8,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.043). In conclusion, diabetes knowledge was low among Vietnamese high\u2010risk T2DM patients. A strong relationship existed between high diabetes knowledge and better medication adherence.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/cts.70517","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,9]],"date-time":"2026-03-09T04:01:50Z","timestamp":1773028910000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Diabetes Knowledge and Medication Adherence Among High\u2010Risk Type 2 Diabetic Patients in a Rural Area in Vietnam: A Cross\u2010Sectional Study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Huong Thi Thu","family":"Ho","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Pharmacy Division, Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy Mahidol University  Bangkok Thailand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6170-0957","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ha Thi","family":"Vo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Pharmacy Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine  Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam"},{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Nguyen Tri Phuong Hospital  Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0832-6860","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pramote","family":"Tragulpiankit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Pharmacy Division, Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy Mahidol University  Bangkok Thailand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4828-4412","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Surakit","family":"Nathisuwan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Pharmacy Division, Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy Mahidol University  Bangkok Thailand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2337\/dc25-S002"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.2004"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2021-052725"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s13410-019-00755-w"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.diabres.2020.108051"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1596\/34761"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","article-title":"Knowledge and Associated Factors Towards Type 2 Diabetes Among a Rural Population in the Red River Delta Region, Vietnam","volume":"15","author":"Binh T.
