Resolution: standard / high Figure 5.
Add-one and minus-one patterns for a starting adjustment-variable set of{C1}based on DAG in Figure2, taking the associations in the DAG in Figure1as the unknown best working DAG. The solid horizontal line is the RD estimate adjusted on the putative minimally sufficient
set {C1}. The dashed horizontal lines are the pre-defined meaningful change thresholds in
the RD estimate. The add-one section shows the RD upon adding each variable listed
to the adjustment-variable set in turn. The minus-one section shows the RD upon removing
each variable listed from the adjustment-variable set in turn.
