After adjusting for demographic, anthropometric, laboratory, and medical history factors, each one\u2010standard\u2010deviation increase in SAFE correlated with a 58.0% rise in HF risk. Individuals in the highest quartile of SAFE had a 2.777\u2010fold risk of HF compared to those in the lowest quartile. Smooth\u2010curve modeling revealed an almost linear association between SAFE and HF, and subgroup analyses supported this relationship across diverse populations. Incorporating SAFE into standard cardiovascular risk factors slightly improved HF discrimination (AUC: 0.873 vs. 0.876,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).
