The Hypothesis of the COVID-19 Role in Acute kidney Injury: A Literatures Review

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-2019) is a viral infection that mainly causes pulmonary infection but mortality usually occurred in patients have comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) that accounts for over 20% of mortalities, morbid obesity, immunosuppression, diabetes mellitus, hyper...
