Pathways in the Pathophysiology of Coronavirus 19 Lung Disease Accessible to Prevention and Treatment
Background: In COVID 19 related lung disease, which is a leading cause of death from this disease, cytokines like tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha) may be pivotal in the pathogenesis. TNF alpha reduces fluid absorption due to impairment of sodium and chloride transport required for building an...
