strong link found between abnormal liver tests and poor covid-19 outcomes
rather than the liver itself driving poorer outcomes in covid-19 patients, the organ is more likely a bystander affected by the hyperinflammation associated with covid-19 and by the side effects of related treatments, nathanson said.", "but regardless of whether patients came to the hospital with existing liver problems or developed them during their covid-19-related hospitalization, a strong association was observed between abnormal liver tests and the severity of the covid-19 cases, the researchers said.", 


































"the study noted a relationship between drugs used to treat severe covid-19 and liver damage, most significantly the drug tocilizumab.", "we observed a strong association between the use of covid-19 medications and abnormal liver tests, said lim, but added that they could not confidently tease out that the abnormal tests were due to drug-induced liver injury as opposed to the disease.")
