Trends in cirrhosis hospitalizations during the COVID-19 pandemic 2020-07-15 .txt text/plain 837 45 42 During this period, some studies reported reduced numbers of hospital admissions across different areas -from cirrhosis to heart failure [1] [2] [3] [4] . We analysed the hospitalizations for decompensated cirrhosis from March 2, when the first patient with confirmed COVID-19 in Portugal was seen in our emergency department, to the end of the state of emergency, on May 2,2020. During this period there were 40 admissions due to decompensated cirrhosis, a number that was not significantly different from that observed in the same time period in previous years (median 38 admissions, ranging from 34 in 2015 to 42 in 2019). Readmission was associated with shorter LOS of the index hospitalization, while it was not associated with age, gender, aetiology of cirrhosis, reason for admission, or severity of liver disease at index admission. ./cache/cord-287626-lnao60co.txt ./txt/cord-287626-lnao60co.txt
