“…Two studies comparing the acute use of ibuprofen or NSAIDs during COVID-19 infection with paracetamol combinations or with non-NSAIDs users found nonsignificantly lower mortality rates in the NSAIDs users [12,14]. Some researchers have also suggested that by depleting glutathione, paracetamol might also worsen the outcome of COVID-19 [50][51][52][53].…”

“…GPX requires GSH for its antioxidative activity [ 16 ]. GSH is one of the essential antioxidants in our body [ 21 ], containing the thiol group [ 20 ]. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is involved in the production of NADPH which is required to maintain adequate levels of GSH by GSR [ 97 ].…”

“…CAT is a heme-containing enzyme in the peroxisomes of nearly all aerobic cells [ 19 ]. GPX is a substrate-specific enzyme requiring glutathione (GSH), which is one of the essential thiol groups containing antioxidants [ 20 ] in our body [ 21 ]. Serum concentrations of SOD and GPX were significantly higher in COVID-19 patients [ 22 ].…”

“…En los primeros años de vida presentan evidencia de una inmunodeficiencia combinada, con niveles disminuidos de interleucinas proinflamatorias (IL-2) y niveles elevados de interleucinas antiinflamatorias (IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α) 12,17 , además se observa una involución tímica acelerada en los niños con SD con disminución del número de células T 18 , modificando la función inmunitaria mediada por células 6,12 . Por otra parte, se ha demostrado aumento en el estrés oxidativo debido a la disminución de los niveles de glutatión 19 . Lo anterior junto a la presencia de cardiopatías congénitas, anomalías anatómicas y fisiológicas de las vías respiratorias, hipotonía y microaspiraciones explicarían la mayor incidencia de infecciones del tracto respiratorio en la infancia 18 , siendo las cardiopatías congénitas y la neumonía las causas más importantes de mortalidad en el SD [18][19][20][21] .…”
