Reference to graph of ASCVD risk vs LDL-C vs Trig/HDL-C. Where?

Frustrating: I’ve repeatedly seen a three-dimensional bar graph that shows ASCVD risk as vertical bars, divided into tertiles or quartiles with LDL-C on one axis and triglyceride/HDL-C ratio on the other axis. This graph is fairly reassuring, since it shows that while there is a positive trend in risk with LDL-C in the low trig/HDL lane, the risk of the highest LDL in that lane is at worst equal to the risk of the lowest LDL-C in the highest trig/HDL lane.

Only problem is that I can’t seem to locate those graphs any longer! Can anyone point me ideally to the original publications that contain them, or even to a secondary source (i.e. blog or YouTube) that cites them? My attempts to find them with keyword searches are failing miserably.
