Derivation of the DAG used to drive the intervention component in the CHARIOT project

Key Points

• The study estimates the direct effects of modifiable risk factors on cardiovascular disease risk, focusing on actionable change.
• Findings highlight how interventions can significantly modify cardiovascular disease risk by addressing high-risk behaviors.
• Analysis of the directed acyclic graph structure unveils important connections between risk factors and disease outcomes.
• Understanding these effects may lead to better-targeted interventions for cardiovascular disease prevention.
