Clinical outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 in patients with pre-existing liver diseases: A multicenter study in South Korea.
CONCLUSION: This study suggests liver cirrhosis is a significant risk factor for COVID-19. Stronger personal protection and more intensive treatment for COVID-19 are recommended in these patients. PMID: 33053932 [PubMed - in process]

Asymptomatic Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Infection in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease Under Biologic Treatment
The Lombardy region of Italy was the second epicenter of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection after China, with Bergamo province being the most affected area. The Hospital Papa Giovanni XXIII, the tertiary referral center for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the whole province, was reconverted into a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) point of care, with up to 500 beds dedicated to patients with COVID-19 and more than 1,500 admissions for severe COVID-19 during the early phase of the local epidemic.

Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Outcomes of Hospitalized Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019 Presenting as Acute Pancreatitis
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global pandemic. Although most patients present with respiratory symptoms, gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms have also been reported in up to 25% of patients.1 Some case reports have shown acute pancreatitis as the initial presentation in patients with COVID-19.2 –4 As islet cells of the pancreas contain ACE2 receptor proteins, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can bind to these receptors and cause pancreatic injury.

Prevalence of liver injury in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) : a systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: COVID-19-induced liver injury must not be ignored, as it is observed in one fifth of infected patients. Pro- spective studies evaluating liver function during the course of COVID-19 are needed to provide a complete overview of hepatic involvement during this viral infection.

Changes in Policy and Endoscopic Procedures during the 2019 Coronavirus Disease Outbreak: A Single Center Experience.
Conclusions: The current policy appears to serve both our initial goals: protecting personnel and patients' safety and minimizing potential damage from delayed endoscopic procedures. A longer term follow-up study is needed in order to fully analyze our results. PMID: 33153253 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The Role of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 in Modulating Gut Microbiota, Intestinal Inflammation, and Coronavirus Infection
The role of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 has expanded from regulating the renin angiotensin system to regulating intestinal amino acid homeostasis and the gut microbiome. Recently, angiotensin converting enzyme 2 was identified as a primary receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses 1 and 2 being expressed in multiple tissues including the luminal surface of the gut. In this brief perspective, we examine the role of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 as the receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and the impact of coronavirus disease 19 infection on the gut microbiome and on the gut epithelium.

Prevalence of gastrointestinal symptoms in coronavirus disease 2019: a meta-analysis.
Conclusions: The present meta-analysis shows that a significant proportion of COVID-19 patients suffer from GI manifestations, as well as COVID-19 positivity in stool samples. Asymptomatic patients need to be considered a further potential route of viral transmission. PMID: 33321018 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Cancer Screening During the Coronavirus Disease-2019 Pandemic: A Perspective From the National Cancer Institute ’s PROSPR Consortium
The severe acute respiratory syndrome novel coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus pandemic and related coronavirus disease (COVID-19), have dramatically altered health care delivery, worsened non –virus-related health outcomes, and increased the potential for disparities. As COVID-19 infections increased, public health and professional organizations issued guidance that all nonurgent surgeries and procedures, including cancer screening, should be delayed.1 Not surprisingly, early data sugg est that these restrictions drastically impacted preventive care that requires direct patient–provider contact.

Association Between Collagenous and Lymphocytic Colitis and Risk of Severe Coronavirus Disease 2019
Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the large intestine that presents with watery diarrhea and primarily affects older adults. We and others have demonstrated that MC is associated with an increased risk of death from infectious causes.1,2 Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is a novel virus first discovered in China and is responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). To date, no study has evaluated the association between MC, its subtypes of collagenous colitis (CC) and lymphocytic colitis (LC), and COVID-19.

Coronavirus disease-2019 and the intestinal tract: An overview
World J Gastroenterol. 2021 Apr 7;27(13):1255-1266. doi: 10.3748/wjg.v27.i13.1255.ABSTRACTSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can progress to a severe respiratory and systemic disease named coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). The most common symptoms are fever and respiratory discomfort. Nevertheless, gastrointestinal infections have been reported, with symptoms such as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and lack of appetite. Importantly, SARS-CoV-2 can remain positive in fecal samples after nasopharyngeal clearance. After gastrointestinal SARS-CoV-2 infection and other viral ga...
