Public Health Decision Making: ARI helps public health officials and policymakers evaluate the potential impact of a risk factor or intervention on a population, guiding resource allocation and intervention strategies. Comparative Effectiveness: ARI allows for the comparison of different interventions or exposures, enabling the assessment of which option might lead to a higher or lower risk of a particular outcome. Individual Risk Assessment: Clinicians can use ARI to inform patients about the additional risk they might face due to certain exposures or treatments, aiding in shared decision-making processes.
