Adding an if statement in a for loop

From this dataframe:

tree       cues                        directions   thresholds   exits
 1   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI;TimesPregnant   >;>;>;>   126;29;29.7;6  1;0;1;0.5
 2   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI                 >;>;>     126;29;29.7    0;1;0.5
 3   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI;TimesPregnant   >;>;>;>   126;29;29.7;6  1;0;0;0.5
 4   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI;TimesPregnant   >;>;>;>   126;29;29.7;6  1;1;0;0.5
 5   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI;TimesPregnant   >;>;>;>   126;29;29.7;6  0;1;0;0.5
 6   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI                 >;>;>     126;29;29.7    0;0;0.5 
 7   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI;TimesPregnant   >;>;>;>   126;29;29.7;6  1;1;1;0.5
 8   PLC2hrOGTT;Age;BMI;TimesPregnant   >;>;>;>   126;29;29.7;6  0;0;0;0.5

with this code:

>>> def row_to_tree(row):
...     out = {}
...     pos = [out]
...     for cues, directions, thresholds, exits in zip(*map(lambda x: x.split(";"), row[["cues", "directions", "thresholds", "exits"]].values)):
...             pos = pos[0]
...             pos["cues"] = cues
...             pos["directions"] = directions
...             pos["thresholds"] = thresholds
...             pos["exits"] = exits
...             pos["children"] = [{"cues":True}]
...             pos = pos["children"]
...     pos.append({"cues": False})
...     return out

I can get this desired output:

>>> trees = [row_to_tree(row) for i, row in df.iterrows()]
>>> print(json.dumps(trees[0], indent=2))
{
  "cues": "PLC2hrOGTT",
  "directions": ">",
  "thresholds": "126",
  "exits": "1",
  "children": [
    {
      "cues": "Age",
      "directions": ">",
      "thresholds": "29",
      "exits": "0",
      "children": [
        {
          "cues": "BMI",
          "directions": ">",
          "thresholds": "29.7",
          "exits": "1",
          "children": [
            {
              "cues": "TimesPregnant",
              "directions": ">",
              "thresholds": "6",
              "exits": "0.5",
              "children": [
                {
                  "cues": true
                },
                {
                  "cues": false
                }
              ]
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

but I want now to add an if statement inside this loop, so what I want now when I add the children I want an if there so that if the exits==1 first add True and then the child and if it's not then first add the child and then add False. (i.e. the parent 'PLC2hrOGTT' should have "cues": True and then "cues": "Age" because "exits": is "1" in 'PLC2hrOGTT) Can I achieve this in this loop?

This is the desired output:

{
    "cues": "PLC2hrOGTT",
    "directions": ">",
    "thresholds": "126",
    "exits": "1",
    "children": [
      {
        "cues": "True",
      },
      {
        "cues": "Age",
        "directions": ">",
        "thresholds": "29",
        "exits": "0",
        "children": [
          {
            "cues": "BMI",
            "directions": ">",
            "thresholds": "29.7",
            "exits": "1",
            "children": [
              {
                "cues": "True",
              },
              {
                "cues": "TimesPregnant",
                "directions": ">",
                "thresholds": "6",
                "exits": "0.5",
                "children":[
                  {
                    "cues": "True"
                  },
                  {
                    "cues": "False"
                  }
                ]
              }
            ]
          },
          {
            "cues": "False"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
    }
