studies | have reported | increase in serum cytokine levels in COVID-19 patients (count: 1) | |
Recent studies have reported an increase in serum cytokine levels in COVID-19 patients, especially in severe patients, and suggest that cytokine storm is associated with disease severity [6, 13] .

Serum SARS-CoV-2 load | is associated with | cytokine storm (count: 1) | |
Serum SARS-CoV-2 viral load (RNAaemia) is strongly associated with cytokine storm and can be used to predict the poor prognosis of COVID-19 patients.
| |
SARS-CoV-2 infection | is | in moribund patients associated with cytokine storm 4 12 (count: 1) | |
Importantly, in most moribund patients, SARS-CoV-2 infection is also associated with an inflammatory cytokine storm 4, 12 , which is mainly characterized by elevated plasma concentrations of interleukins 6 (IL-6).
| |
cytokine storm | is occurred in | COVID-19 patients (count: 1) | |
Because inflammatory cytokine storm is frequently occurred in critically ill COVID-19 patients, we then asked that if there any laboratory parameters could be associated RNAaemia and contribute to the COVID-19 severity?
| |
cytokine storm | exist in | 2019-nCoV infection (count: 1) | |
These phenomena suggest severe pulmonary inflammation 50 and cytokine storm also exist in 2019-nCoV infection.
| |
changes | are correlated with | changes of cytokine levels in COVID-19 patients (count: 1) | |
In line with this hypothesis, we observed that the kinetic changes of T cell counts are reversely correlated with the kinetic changes of most examined cytokine levels in the peripheral blood in severe COVID-19 patients.

research | reveals cytokine storm in | COVID-19 patients (count: 1) | |
Recent research reveals the fatal cytokine storm in critical COVID-19 patients.

2019-nCoV | may cause | cytokine storm (count: 1) | |
In a recent clinical report, 2019-nCoV may cause cytokine storm and multi-organ failure in severe pneumonia patients(8).

One interesting question is the source of these cytokine during COVID-19 infection.

SARS-CoV-2 | triggers | cytokine release (count: 1) | |
Our previous work demonstrating that monocytes and macrophages can produce pro-inflammatory cytokine during murine hepatitis virus strain-3 infection, 30, 31 and whether SARS-CoV-2 also triggers cytokine release from monocytes and macrophages in COVID-19 patients need further investigation and such work is in progress in our hospital.

cytokine storms | use for | immunomodulation in patients with COVID-19 (count: 1) | |
Although there was no clinical evidence to support the use of glucocorticoids [8] , whether early use of thymosin and gamma globulin for immunomodulation in patients with severe and critical COVID-19 can reduce cytokine storms, reduce clinical symptoms and improve prognosis requires further exploration.

confirmed the occurrence of the J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f cytokine storm in the COVID-19 patients in ICU rather than those in non-ICU patients [7] .

Current available therapies -including non-specific anti-virals, antibiotics to treat secondary bacterial infections and sepsis, and corticosteroids to reduce inflammation -fail in severe disease where the hallmark is the cytokine storm induced by COVID-19 in the lung, visible as inflammatory lesions with ground-glass opacity on CT scan.

2019-nCoV infection | is | In moribund patients associated with cytokine storm (count: 1) | |
In most moribund patients, 2019-nCoV infection is also associated with a cytokine storm, which is characterised by increased plasma concentrations of interleukins 2, 7, and 10, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, interferon-γ-inducible protein 10, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, macrophage inflammatory protein 1 alpha, and tumour necrosis factor α.

ill COVID-19 patients | is with | cytokine storm (count: 1) | |
The artificial-liver blood-purification system was applied in Zhejiang province, China, and showed good prognosis in the treatment of severely or critically ill COVID-19 patients with cytokine storm [22] .

cytokine storm onset | is in | COVID-19 (count: 1) | |
Second, investigations are needed regarding the key pathways and immune cell types involved in cytokine storm onset in COVID-19; these will benefit the understanding of artificial-liver support system treatment for alleviating cytokine storm to reverse the disease process in patients with severe COVID-19 infection by rebalancing the immune system.

The cytokine storm will trigger a violent attack by the immune system to the body, cause ARDS and multiple organ failure, and finally lead to death in severe cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection, just like what occurs in SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV infection [31] .
