Remedying SARS-CoV-2 through nature: a review highlighting the potentiality of herbs, trees, mushrooms, and endophytic microorganisms in controlling Coronavirus.
Review in Planta, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
MAIN
conclusionMedicinal plants, mushrooms, and endophytes offer a rich source of secondary metabolites (SMs), including flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and terpenoids, with proven antiviral properties against SARS-CoV-2. Plant-associated microorganisms that colonize in living tissues of different parts of a plant possess the ability to produce SMs of immense therapeutic value and this biological interaction between plants and microbes can be exploited to develop antiviral drugs against SARS-CoV-2. The unprecedented lethality of the SARS-CoV-2 virus during the recent global pandemic has prompted extensive research into new treatment options and preventive strategies for COVID-19. Phytochemicals, particularly those derived from medicinal plants, microbes, and mushrooms, show promising results in combating the virus when combined with synthetic components. These natural compounds include terpenes, phenolics, flavonoids, and alkaloids that possess antiviral properties. Medicinal plants and their endophytic microbes, and mushrooms, offer a rich source of secondary metabolites (SMs) with potential antiviral effects against SARS-CoV-2. Given the urgency of addressing the swift spread of the new coronavirus strain, exploring and understanding these SMs could lead to the development of innovative and potent antiviral drugs. This review provides a comprehensive overview of plant-, microbial- and mushroom-derived SMs, their classification, and their applications in treating diseases caused by the coronavirus family, offering insights into the potential future production of natural medicines.
