Core Tip |
The main cause of mortality in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection is the respiratory complication but liver is one of the most affected organs besides the respiratory system. The incidence of liver injury after COVID-19 infection ranged from 15%-53%. The COVID-19 infected patients with liver injury may have higher liver enzyme levels, lower monocyte count and longer prothrombin time. The risk of afterward sequela including transferring to intensive care unit, needing mechanical ventilator support, and acute kidney injury is higher than that may happen to COVID-19 patients without abnormal liver function tests. Higher mortality rate and longer length of stay are both observed. |
