Brief Summary
- 1.Investigate the possible effects of interleukin-6 receptor antagonists such as tocilizumab and sarilumab on the levels of IL-6, inflammtory and anti-inflammtory markers and cytokines before and after treatment in critically ill corona virus disease-19 patients.
- 2.Correlate between IL-6 levels with other inflammatory markers as ferritin and C-reactive protein.
- 3.investigate the possible changes on the levels of other inflammatory, anti-inflammatory markers and cytokines such as IL-10 and IP-10, before and after treatment.

Study Arms (1)
critically ill COVID-19 patients in ICU
