Predictors of mortality in patients with COVID-19 by flow cytometry.

Despite the great impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), we still lack techniques that allow us to anticipate the natural history of the disease in order to avoid or shorten the clinical period of the disease. The values of nine cytokines were measured in COVID-19+ patients admitted to the Hospital Universitario Reina Sofía (HURS) using flow cytometry. The cytokines measured are IL-1ß, IL-6, MCP-1, IP-10, IL-10, IL-8, IL-12, IFN-γ and TNF-α.
