Data are shown as number (%) or mean ± SD. P values were calculated using the student’s t-test or the χ2 or Fischer exact test, as appropriate.

COVID-19 = coronavirus disease 2019, HBV = hepatitis B virus, ICU = intensive care unit, MV = mechanical ventilation, ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, AKI = acute kidney injury, CRRT = continuous renal-replacement therapy.
