| Core Tip |
Glucocorticoids were used in the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome, influenza A and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the past. Many studies believe that glucocorticoids can effectively reduce inflammation caused by viruses. In this manuscript, 102 patients with severe and critical COVID-19 were studied and divided into treatment group and control group according to methylprednisolone use. We found that the difference in mortality between both groups was insignificant (P = 0.655), and the results showed that methylprednisolone treatment did not improve prognosis. |
