We identified that male sex, immunoglobulin use, APACHE II score, and lymphopenia were independent risk factors associated with the duration of SARS-CoV-2 RNA shedding, whereas ARV A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t combination therapy and corticosteroid treatment were not independent factors. In conclusion, we found that male sex, immunoglobulin use, APACHE II score, and lymphopenia were independent risk factors associated with the duration of SARS-CoV-2 RNA shedding, whereas ARV combination therapy and corticosteroid treatment were not. ./cache/cord-333429-bq7kfpby.txt ./txt/cord-333429-bq7kfpby.txt
