Response to letter to the editor by Kawada on “Association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease with advanced fibrosis and stroke”
We thank Dr. Kawada for their interest [1] in our recent publication [2], in which we reported on the association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) fibrosis indices and stroke. In a large, nationally representative sample of Americans, we demonstrated a cross-sectional relationship between NAFLD-advanced fibrosis and prevalent, self-reported stroke, with variability in our findings depending on the liver fibrosis score used.
