Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This research is a study that compares the administration of N-acetylcysteine at various doses with the outcomes of COVID-19 patients, namely the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and length of stay.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This research was an observational analytic cohort retrospective study in which the subjects were moderate degree COVID-19 inpatients in Sebelas Maret University Hospital divided into four groups. The control group K0 received standard therapy without NAC, while the treatment group K1 received NAC injections of 1200mg/day, K2 NAC tablets 3x400mg/day, and K3 NAC tablets 3x200mg/day. Different tests using Way ANOVA and LSD or Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney.
