Version: 1 Date: 07 Jun 2025
Reviewer's report:
Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful responses to the previous reviewer and editor
comments. I carefully reviewed your point-by-point rebuttal alongside the revised manuscript,
and I am pleased to see that the manuscript has significantly improved in both scientific clarity
and methodological transparency.
Most of the previously raised issues—including clarification of the NAFLD definition,
adjustment for important confounders, handling of missing data, use of competing risk models,
and improved presentation of the figures and tables—have been satisfactorily addressed.
The inclusion of additional statistical explanation, expanded limitations, and clearer narrative
structure has enhanced the manuscript’s overall quality.
I appreciate the substantial revisions made and your commitment to improving the scientific
rigor and clarity of your work. I believe the article is now in a much stronger position for
publication and will be of value to the field.
I wish you continued success with this and future research endeavors.
