Key points on characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19-associated liver injury

Abstract

Over the past two years, the COVID-19 disease caused by 2019-nCoV infection has continued to affect human health, posing a great threat to global public health. Several studies have shown that different degrees of liver injury can occur in patients with COVID-19, which is closely related with severe forms of the disease. Therefore, it is necessary for clinicians to further understand the characteristics, diagnosis and treatment methods of COVID-19-associated liver injury.
