May you share a list of chronic diseases and an estimated reduced risk of a poor outcome (heart attack, stroke, peripheral neuropathy, blindness, kidney failure, liver failure, death, etc.) from untreated to treated condition. I think an estimated number will give some patients an objective incentive to increase adherence. Please share if you have any estimates for any chronic or mental health conditions. Thank you. [Risk = relative risk, absolute risk, relative risk reduction, or absolute risk reduction]

EDIT: It appears that this is not a request for homework help, so the thread is being reopened.

You're looking for number needed to treat. For cardiology conditions (heart failure, cad) there are tons of data. Look up nnt on Google and you'll find a lot of this
