  1. Cumulative incidence was calculated by product limit (Kaplan-Meier) method of survival probability.
  2. *There was no new-onset MASLD between 72 and 96 months of survival time in Cholecystectomy (Yes), CMRF < 3 group, 84 and 96 months of survival time in Cholecystectomy (Yes), CMRF ≥ 3 group.
