Effectiveness of adjunctive corticosteroid therapy in patients with severe COVID-19:A retrospective cohort study

         

摘要

BACKGROUND The effectiveness of adjunctive corticosteroid use in patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)remains inconclusive.AIM To investigate the effectiveness of adjunctive corticosteroid therapy in patients with severe COVID-19.METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of the difference in several outcomes between patients with severe COVID-19 who received corticosteroid therapy(the corticosteroid group)and patients with severe COVID-19 who did not receive corticosteroid therapy(the non-corticosteroid group).RESULTS Seventy-five patients were included in this study.Of these,47 patients were in the corticosteroid group and 28 patients were in the non-corticosteroid group.There were no differences between the two groups in the total length of hospital stay,the length of intensive care unit stay,high-flow oxygen days,non-invasive ventilator days,invasive ventilation days,and mortality rate.Total lesion volume ratio,consolidation volume ratio and ground-glass opacity volume ratio in the corticosteroid group decreased significantly on day 14,while those in the noncorticosteroid group did not show a significant decrease.CONCLUSION Our results show that adjunctive corticosteroid use did not significantly improveclinical outcomes in severe COVID-19 patients,but might promote the absorptionof pulmonary lesions.Larger multicenter randomized controlled studies may beneeded to confirm this.
