Global Diabetes Risk Factors

This interactive sunburst chart visualizes diabetes risk factors across multiple dimensions: dietary risk, geographic location, gender, and age range. The chart allows users to explore the hierarchy of data, from broad categories to specific demographic groups, by zooming in and out.

How to Interact:

• Zoom In: Click on any section to zoom in and explore the next level of detail (e.g., from dietary risk to specific countries or age groups).
• Zoom Out: Click on the center circle or use the "back" navigation to zoom out to the previous level.
• Hover: Hover over any section to view more information about that category, including its value.

How to Interpret:

• Each Ring: Represents a different layer of the data hierarchy. Starting from the outermost ring, the layers represent broader categories like dietary risk, moving towards more specific groups like gender and age range.
• Color: Different colors are used to distinguish between categories and levels in the hierarchy. Each section's color corresponds to its category (e.g., different colors for different regions or demographic groups).
• Size: The size of each segment indicates the value or count associated with that category, allowing users to easily compare the relative size of different groups.

Layers Displayed: Dietary Risk, Location, Gender, Age Range
