Abstract

We appreciate the interest of Fouad and coworkers in our study regarding the prevalence of steatotic liver disease (SLD) in the United States. 1 Our research is in line with the revised nomenclature to categorize SLD subtypes. In their recent letter to the editor, Fouad et al 2 express concerns about the newly adapted nomenclature, particularly in the context of mixed etiologies contributing to SLD. They suggest that the previously proposed nomenclature, specifically metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), might be superior in certain scenarios.
