Clinical changes in the gastrointestinal system as a result of the influence of Covid-19

Research shows that, in addition to primarily presenting as a lung infection, coronavirus infections have been re-established to have significant extrapulmonary complications that affect multiple organ systems, including the gastrointestinal tract. Patients with gastrointestinal symptoms were noted to have clinical manifestations such as anorexia, diarrhea, vomiting, or abdominal pain. As the active period of the disease increased, the symptoms of the gastrointestinal tract became more apparent, especially the high rate of patients hospitalized with symptoms of anorexia was 41.7%. Our study showed that patients with COVID-19 showed gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea (25%), anorexia (41.7%) and nausea (18.3%), abdominal pain (15%).
