Physical inactivity

The physical-inactivity module owns physical-activity exposure and the exposure changes produced by its intervention components. It publishes baseline and comparison excess-risk terms for diabetes, ischaemic heart disease and stroke.

The shared risk-factor reconciliation module combines those terms with the corresponding tobacco and alcohol terms. It calculates one common population-attributable-fraction denominator for each affected disease or cardiovascular endpoint and publishes the final incidence modifier.

This means physical inactivity is represented once as an exposure source. It is not implemented as a different risk factor merely because it affects more than one disease.

The source repository is risk-factor-physical-inactivity (opens in a new tab).
