Core Tip |
We evaluated the frequency of hepatic steatosis in the computed tomography (CT) of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and its association with the pneumonia severity score (PSS). We retrospective evaluated the CTs of 485 patients with suspected COVID-19. The regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age and comorbidities there was almost a 2.2 times odds of hepatic steatosis in the COVID-19-positive group in comparison to controls (odds ratio 2.187; 95% confidence interval: 1.336-3.580, P < 0.001). There was a positive correlation between hepatic steatosis and PSS. The current study revealed a significantly higher prevalence of hepatic steatosis on CT in COVID-19 patients as compared to controls. |
