Covid‐19 and Liver Injury: Role of Inflammatory Endotheliopathy, Platelet Dysfunction, and Thrombosis

Matthew J. McConnell, Reiichiro Kondo, Nao Kawaguchi, Yasuko Iwakiri – 17 October 2021 – Liver injury, characterized predominantly by elevated aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase, is a common feature of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) symptoms caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome‐coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). Additionally, SARS‐CoV‐2 infection is associated with acute‐on‐chronic liver failure in patients with cirrhosis and has a notably elevated mortality in patients with alcohol‐related liver disease compared to other etiologies.
