Interleukin-6 Receptor Antagonists in Critically Ill Patients with Covid-19.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated tocilizumab and sarilumab in an ongoing international, multifactorial, adaptive platform trial, which used a Bayesian statistical model with predefined criteria for superiority, efficacy, equivalence or futility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelial dysfunction and immunothrombosis as key pathogenic mechanisms in COVID-19.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed that SARS-CoV-2 infection induces a process known as immunothrombosis, in which activated neutrophils and monocytes interact with platelets and the coagulation cascade, leading to intravascular clot formation in small and larger vessels.
Journal ArticleDOI

COVID-19 and the human innate immune system.

TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual framework for the interaction of the human innate immune system with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was provided to link the clinical observations with experimental findings that have been made during the first year of the pandemic.
Journal ArticleDOI

The signal pathways and treatment of cytokine storm in COVID-19.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the latest developments in the immunopathological characteristics of COVID-19 and focus on CS including the current research status of the different cytokines involved, and discuss the induction, function, downstream signaling and existing and potential interventions for targeting these cytokines or related signal pathways.
