Brief Summary

COVID-19, spreading rapidly all over the world, causes serious morbidity and mortality. In severe COVID-19 infections, after pulmonary inflammation, cardiovascular organ failure, cytokine storm, hemophagocytosis, septic shock, develops due to uncontrolled hypoxia, and isolated organ failure turns into multi-organ failure. It is noteworthy that it causes lymphopenia in patients. In the studies, the blood levels of certain inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1β,interleukin-6 and TNF-α, were evaluated. In addition, blood values of a limited number of cytokines were investigated similarly in a limited number of studies published in our country.
