In another study, 31 patients with COVID-19-associated rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis (CAROCM) were included, in which a higher incidence of uncontrolled diabetes and renal dysfunction was recorded, while levels of IL-6, ferritin, and D-dimer were significantly higher in CAROCM than in non-mucormycosis patients [63]. The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is COVID-19.
