The mean score of knowledge (measured using KiKs) relating to kidney disease was 17.87\u2009\u00b1\u20093.212. The lowest scores were related to knowledge of effects of proteinuria (13.3%), meanings of \u201cglomerular filtration rate\u201d (29.6%) and \u201ctargeted blood pressure\u201d (31.5%). Although more than 60% of participants knew about some kidney functions, they misunderstood others, including those related to glucose control (23.6%) and blood pressure (54.7%). Patients displayed knowledge scores &gt;70% for five other areas, including disease stage and time since diagnosis. Almost all participants did not know that chronic kidney disease (CKD) could be asymptomatic. The results showed that late\u2010stage CKD (Stages 4 and 5) and longer time since diagnosis of CKD were independently associated with a higher score of knowledge (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.18, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.017; <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.41, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001; <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.26, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.001, respectively).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study provided initial insights on CKD\u2010related knowledge among patients with Stage 3\u20135 CKD in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
