Zusammenfassung:Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients reportedly have high bicarbonate concentration. However, its relationship to the disease progression are obscure. Methods In this two-center retrospective study, we included COVID-19 patients with moderate severity between March 2020 and May 2021. We classified patients into three groups according to bicarbonate concentrations: high (>27 mEq/L), normal (21 to 27 mEq/L), and low (
