Abstract Aim: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly become the most severe public health issue all over the world. Despite acute respiratory failure, liver dysfunction has also been observed in clinical settings This study aimed to investigate the factors involved with hepatic injury in COVID-19 patients. Methods: A total of 26 hospitalized patients who were diagnosed with COVID-19 treated at Beijing You'an Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the diagnostic criteria, they were divided into mild group (n=3), ordinary group (n=6), serious group (n=11) and critical group (n=6). Blood count, blood chemistry, coagulation test, liver and renal function, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, lactic acid, cardiac markers and arterial partial pressure was compared between these groups. Independent risk factors of ALT increase was selected. Results: There were 8 patients with ALT elevation in the patients with COVID-19, accounting for 30.8% (8/26). There was no difference in sex ratio between normal and elevated ALT population, and there was an increasing trend in age. The CRP index was significantly higher in the population with elevated ALT, and the increase of CRP was independently related to ALT level, and the OR value was 1.023 (P = 0.024). Conclusions:

COVID-19 related hepatic injury may be a result of cytokine storm syndrome, a positive correlative relationship between the increase of CRP and liver injury. Early detection and timely treatment of hepatic injury is necessary. Key word: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), liver injury, Cytokine storm syndrome

Introduction
Novel coronavirus pneumonia NCP is a newly emerging infectious disease caused
by a novel coronavirus mutant with outstanding symptoms of acute atypical pneumonia and pulmonary damage. Since December 2019, this new disease has rapidly become the most severe public health issue in China, threatening the overall health and socioeconomic well-being of our society1-4. Studies have shown that COVID-19, which belongs to the beta-coronavirus family, has distinct genetic differences from SARSr-CoV and MERSr-Cov5. In February 2020, the WHO announced the virus a novel coronavirus mutant and officially named it as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Up until February 26th 2020, there have been 78,211 COVID-19 cases resulting in 2,720 deaths. Despite atypical pneumonia being the primary symptom, liver dysfunction has also been observed in clinical settings, indicating a possibility for COVID-19 to cause hepatic injury. However, the reason and mechanism behind the hepatic injury is still unclear. For the time being, there has been a lack of research regarding this issue and it remains controversial. Therefore, a more thorough investigation of the relationship between COVID-19 and hepatic injury is critical in terms of solving practical clinical problems as well as improving clinical treatment and cure rate. We selected the representative COVID-19 patients and focused on the characteristics of their hepatic injury and the possible influences from COVID-19, aiming to provide new clues and data for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Methods
Patient selection For this retrospective, single-center study, we recruited 26 patients with COVID-19 from Jan 28 to Feb 22, 2020, at the You'an Hospital of Capital Medical University, Beijing, China. Diagnosis of COVID-19 and clinical classification according to the new coronavirus pneumonia diagnosis and treatment plan (trial version 6) developed by the National Health Committee of the People's Republic of China (). The clinical classifications are as follows: (1) mild, only mild symptoms, no sign of pneumonia in imaging. (2) ordinary, with fever, respiratory tract symptoms, and imaging shows pneumonia. (3) moderate, meet any of
the following: a) respiratory distress, respiratory rate 30 beats / min; b) in the resting state, means oxygen saturation 93%; c) arterial blood oxygen partial pressure/ oxygen concentration 300mmHg (1mmHg = 0.133kPa). Pulmonary imaging
showed that the lesions progressed more than 50% within 24-48 hours, and the patients were managed according to moderate case. (4) severe, one of the following conditions: a) respiratory failure occurs and requires mechanical ventilation; b) Shock occurs; c) ICU admission is required for combined organ failure. The research ethics was approved by the ethics committee of Beijing You'an Hospital of Capital Medical University(2020-022). Baseline data collection
