Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is one of the respiratory system diseases with unknown etiology and clinical characteristics. Defects in the liver and kidneys appear to be common in Covid-19 patients. Aspartate transaminase (AST) enzyme, Urea, creatinine, and Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) enzyme levels are frequently exalted at the start or within the infection. This pretext suggests that Covid-19 interferes with the functions of the liver and kidneys. The current study was aimed to estimate the biochemical biomarkers changes that related to liver and kidney functions, such as ALT, AST, urea, and creatinine, in infected patients. 50 patients were diagnosed with infected between May 1 and 1 August 2020, in Dayala Hospital. 100 samples included 50 control and 50 infected were carried out to evalute the level of biochemical biomarkers (the plasma urea, creatinine, ALT and AST).The results showed increased of ALT, AST, BUN and creatinine levels in the infected samples compare with the control samples. The mean serum kidney parameter (Urea, creatinine ) levels were 57.84±10.46, 1.61±0.18respectively, while the mean value of serum liver enzyme (AST, ALT) levels were 41.94±4.59 and 42.54±4.45, respectively, with high significant different (P<0.001) with control healthy group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
