Autoantibodies neutralizing type I IFNs are present in ~ 4% of uninfected individuals over 70 years old and account for ~ 20% of COVID-19 deaths.

Paul Bastard, +58 more

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that auto-antibodies neutralizing high concentrations (10 ng/mL, in plasma diluted 1 to 10) of IFN-α and/or -ω are found in about 10% of patients with critical COVID-19 pneumonia, but not in subjects with asymptomatic infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human genetic and immunological determinants of critical COVID-19 pneumonia

Qian Zhang, +160 more
- 28 Jan 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the molecular and cellular determinants of critical COVID-19 pneumonia were reviewed and the TLR3- and TLR7-dependent production of type I interferons by respiratory epithelial cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cells, respectively, is essential for host defence against SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

The risk of COVID-19 death is much greater and age dependent with type I IFN autoantibodies

Jeremy Manry, +178 more
TL;DR: It is found that autoantibodies against type I IFNs strongly increased the SARS-CoV-2 infection fatality rate at all ages, in both men and women.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Dose Dexamethasone and Oxygen Support Strategies in Intensive Care Unit Patients With Severe COVID-19 Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure: The COVIDICUS Randomized Clinical Trial.

TL;DR: In this randomized clinical trial among ICU patients with COVID-19-related AHRF, high-dose dexamethasone did not significantly improve 60-day survival and the oxygenation strategies in patients who were not initially receiving IMV did not significant modify 28-day risk of IMV requirement.
