    Document: There are conflicting opinions about the use of glucocorticoids to treat patients with It is suggested that current clinical evidence does not support the use of glucocorticoids, which may cause several side effects (8) (9) . However, clinicians who are on the front line of the epidemic have proposed that short-term glucocorticoid therapy with small or medium dose could be beneficial for patients with severe conditions (10) . The current guidelines on COVID-19 are also inconsistent about the use of glucocorticoids. Some guidelines suggested trying short-term therapy with medium or small doses of glucocorticoids for patients with rapid or severe disease progression, but according to the WHO guidelines glucocorticoids should only be used under clinical trial conditions (11) (12) (13) . Effective evidence related to glucocorticoids to treat COVID-19 is still lacking.
