  1. ACC/AHA: American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association, AUC: area under curve, CI: confidence interval, CVD: cardiovascular disease and SCORE: Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation.
  2. *717 men aged 40–74 years with MASLD and without any history of CVD events in the first evaluation of the cohort.
  3. **714 women aged 40–74 years with MASLD and without any history of CVD events in the first evaluation of the cohort.
  4. ***Based on the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study results (http://ihmeuw.org/6e1f), we categorized Iran as a country with moderate CVD risk populations for SCORE2.
