Fig. 3 — Cytokine levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-18 in COVID-19 patients and healthy control group in serum. The cytokine levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-18 of COVID-19 patients were significantly higher than healthy control group (P = 0.0001, 0.0003, P < 0.0001, and P < 0.0001, respectively) in the serum samples (Control group number = 40, COVID-19 group number = 40). Evaluation of cytokine levels was done by ELISA. Unpaired T test was used for statistical analysis and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
