“…Cytokine storm can result in MODS in COVID-19 patients with a worse prognosis. Myocarditis, pericarditis, decompensated heart failure, cardiogenic shock, edema, myocardial fibrosis as some cardiovascular complications ( Ellison-Hughes et al, 2020 ; Vitiello and Ferrara, 2020 ); respiratory distress symptoms including dyspnea and tachypnea and decreased arterial oxygen saturation ( Parhizkar Roudsari et al, 2020 ); renal damage symptoms such as AKI, hyperkalemia, higher levels of uric acid, BUN, D-dimer, and creatinine as well as hematuria and proteinuria ( Kunutsor and Laukkanen, 2020 ; Patel et al, 2020 ; Puelles et al, 2020 ); an abnormal ALT or AST levels along with slightly increased bilirubin and low albumin (for liver damage consequences) ( Sun J. et al, 2020 ; Wu J. et al, 2020 ); and headache, malaise, unstable walking as well as cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction, meningitis/encephalitis, stroke, anosmia, and ageusia as some nervous system damages ( Alomari et al, 2020 ; Berger, 2020 ) can be mentioned as some of the important organ involvements of COVID-19 due to cytokine storm. GF, growth factor; IL, interleukin; TNF, tumor necrosis factor; IFN, interferon; CSF, colony-stimulating factor; MODS, multiple-organ dysfunction syndrome; TGF-β, transforming growth factor beta; AKI, acute kidney injury; BUN, blood urea nitrogen; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase.…”
