Extrapulmonary manifestations of COVID-19
Open accessAbstract
Although COVID-19 is most well known for causing substantial respiratory pathology, it can also result in several extrapulmonary manifestations. These conditions include thrombotic complications, myocardial dysfunction and arrhythmia, acute coronary syndromes, acute kidney injury, gastrointestinal symptoms, hepatocellular injury, hyperglycemia and ketosis, neurologic illnesses, ocular symptoms, and dermatologic complications. Given that ACE2, the entry receptor for the causative coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, is expressed in multiple extrapulmonary tissues, direct viral tissue damage is a plausible mechanism of injury. In addition, endothelial damage and thromboinflammation, dysregulation of immune responses, and maladaptation of ACE2-related pathways might all contribute to these extrapulmonary manifestations of COVID-19. Here we review the extrapulmonary organ-specific pathophysiology, presentations and management considerations for patients with COVID-19 to aid clinicians and scientists in recognizing and monitoring the spectrum of manifestations, and in developing research priorities and therapeutic strategies for all organ systems involved.

“Disease courses range from mainly asymptomatic and mild courses to more severe and critical courses in 10%–20% of symptomatic patients who are at considerable risk of fatality with many different organ systems involved in differing combinations and with variable symptoms (Gupta et al., 2020)”
From COVID-19 and the human innate immune system (2021) · cites this paper as Gupta et al., 2020
In the citing paper
“Furthermore, the virus facilitates the release of coagulation factors, the secretion of inflammatory cytokines, and the formation of leukocyte-platelet aggregates, which might be important mechanisms leading to thromboembolic complications observed in severe COVID-19 (Ackermann et al., 2020; Gupta et al., 2020; Zhang et al., 2020b).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
