Abstract (original English)

Novel therapies are urgently needed to combat the severe cytokine storm syndromes induced by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). An increasing number of preclinical and clinical investigations of stem cell and derivatives therapy for COVID-19 were being carried out, among which several studies have preliminarily demonstrated the safety and possible efficacy of stem cell transplantation therapy, providing a hint to solve the tricky situation of anti-COVID-19.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • This is preclinical work; animal or laboratory results cannot be applied to humans.

Evidence level

Evidence from laboratory and animal studies provides groundwork for understanding mechanisms and potential before human studies continue.
