The following variables were extracted for this study: age, gender, temperature, and saturation of oxygen on admission, treatment with heparin, hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, steroids, tocilizumab, a combination of lopinavir with ritonavir, and oseltamivir, together with data on mortality. This treatment can be associated with the clinical improvement of the patients, and decrease the duration of admissions and the mortality of Covid-19. This study investigates the association of the use of heparin with mortality in a large number of patients admitted with Covid-19. The administration of heparin was associated with lower mortality in patients admitted with Covid-19. A recent observational study conducted in a hospital has also reported lower mortality among the 786 Covid-19 patients who received anticoagulation [13] . Randomized controlled trials are necessary to complement observational studies, and assess the causal associations between heparin, in different therapeutic regimes, and clinical outcomes. ./cache/cord-311970-o9xao5rl.txt ./txt/cord-311970-o9xao5rl.txt
