15-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase expression profile and their related modulators in COVID-19 infection
After the outbreak of COVID-19 infection, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection led to disability, hospitalization and death of a large number of people around the world [1]. This virus belongs to the Coronaviridae family that is a single-stranded RNA virus (positive-sense) and causes the spectrum of clinical manifestations in infected patients ranging from fever, cough, chest and body pain, myalgia, dyspnea, headache to mortality [2]. Adult male and elderly are more vulnerable to the disease, and cardiac, diabetic, and metabolic diseases are considered as main risk factors for this infection [3].

A Comparison of the Effects of Dexamethasone and Methylprednisolone, Used on Level-3 Intensive Care COVID-19 Patients, on Mortality: A Multi-Center Retrospective Study
CONCLUSION: Corticosteroids are shown to be beneficial in critical COVID-19, but the role of early corticosteroids in mild COVID-19 patients remains unclear. The anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids may have a positive effect by reducing mortality in severe COVID-19 patients. Although dexamethasone was first used for this purpose, methylprednisolone was found to be as effective at standard doses. Methylprednisolone administered at standard doses was associated with greater PaO2/FiO2 ratios than dexamethasone, especially in the severe group requiring MV. High dose pulse steroid doses are closely associated with mort...
