The study explore the relationship between COVID-19 and the induction of autoimmune diseases.
It has been suggested that the shared pathogenetic mechanisms and clinical-radiological
aspects between the hyper-inflammatory diseases and Covid-19 may suggest that SARS-CoV-2
could act as a triggering factor for the development of a rapid autoimmune and/or
autoinflammatory dysregulation, leading to the severe interstitial pneumonia, in genetic
predisposed individuals.
