E-values are in the risk ratio scale. The E-value can be interpreted as the risk ratio required between an unmeasured confounder and both the mediators and outcomes to completely explain away the observed effects. The E-value associated with 95% CI is interpreted as the risk ratio required between an unmeasured confounder with both mediators and outcome to shift the confidence interval to the null
