Kronik karaciğer hastalarında COVID-19; siroz hastaları için büyük tehlike

Amaç: Sirozu olan ve olmayan kronik karaciğer hastalarında COVID-19’un klinik seyrini ve mortalitesini araştırmak ve sirotik hastalarda COVID’19 sırasında kompansasyon oranlarını belirlemek. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmaya, kronik karaciğer hastalığı olan 96 hasta ile (30 tanesi sirotik) herhangi bir komorbid hastalığı bulunmayan 153 hasta alındı. Bu hasta grupları arasında COVID- 19’un şiddeti ve mortalitesi açısından fark olup olmadığı incelendi. Bulgular: Sirotik hastaların %46,6’sında (14/30) non-sirotik hastaların %15,1’inde (10/66), kronik karaciğer hastalığı olmayan hastaların %12,4’ünde (19/153)’ünde ağır COVID-19 gelişti (p

COVID-19 in chronic liver patients; great danger for cirrhosis patiens

Aim: The aim of this study; to investigate the clinical course and mortality of COVID-19 in chronic liver patients with and without cirrhosis and to determine decompensation rates during COVID'19 in cirrhotic patients. Materials and Methods: 96 patients with chronic liver disease (30 of them cirrhosis) and 153 patients without any comorbid disease were included in this study. It was examined whether there was a difference among these patient groups in terms of severity and mortality of COVID-19. Results: Severe COVID-19 developed in 46.6% (14/30) cirrhotic patients, in 15.1% (10/66) non cirrhotic patients, and in 12.4% (19/153) patients with no chronic liver disease (p
