Definition from own experience or research:
Citokinska oluja je preaktivan imunološki odgovor koji se javlja kod različitih infekcija i drugih stanja, a karakterizira ga prekomjerna proizvodnja citokina i intenzivna lokalizirana ili generalizirana upala.
Example sentences:
Nakon što je svijet poharala pandemija SARS-CoV-2 virusa uzrokujući COVID-19, ubrzo se ustanovilo da bi hiperimuni odgovor na infekciju, takozvana citokinska oluja mogla imati veliki utjecaj na ishod same bolesti. Danas još uvijek nemamo jasne dijagnostičke kriterije za citokinsku oluju u tijeku COVID-19 što predstavlja problem kako za izbor najboljeg lijeka za ovo stanje, tako i za optimalni trenutak kada tu terapiju primijeniti.
