A study involving 408 patients with gastrointestinal cancers revealed inadequate knowledge, moderate attitudes, and suboptimal practices regarding whole-course management. Mean scores indicated a significant deficit in understanding, with knowledge influencing both attitudes and practices positively. The structural equation model underscored that enhancing knowledge could lead to improved attitudes and practices. Findings suggest that targeted health education may enhance patients’ management of their condition, ultimately improving health outcomes.
