Risk of MACE in MASLD patients with different races. Propensity score matching was reperformed in each analysis. All analysis was followed from 3 months after index date to 15 years after index date if not specifically stated. Matching model 1: matching covariates include age, sex, BMI; Matching model 2: matching covariates include age, sex, BMI, socioeconomic status, substance abuse. Matching model 3: matching covariates include age, sex, BMI, socioeconomic status, substance abuse, NSAIDs use. MACE, major adverse cardiovascular events; CI, confidence interval; BMI, body mass index.
