When infected patients with gastrointestinal symptoms as initial symptoms visit the gastroenterology clinic, the novel coronavirus may have already increased the pulmonary virus content through gut-lung crosstalk [16] . First, patient cases were limited as all from one hospital in Wuhan, which prevented that more clinical features related to initial presentations of gastrointestinal symptoms were characterized. General COVID-19 patients presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms as initial symptoms need more days of viral shedding and hospitalization compared to the patients presenting with pulmonary symptoms.	./cache/cord-298865-5pe33eos.txt	./txt/cord-298865-5pe33eos.txt
