The use of complementary and alternative medicine for the treatment of gastrointestinal symptoms in Long COVID: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: This is the first systematic review to explore the role of CAM in treating GI manifestations of Long COVID. The review identified four studies, all reporting reductions in the GI symptoms of Long COVID. Despite the positive studies included in this review, the overall search yielded few results, all of which were non-experimental. As the post-infectious sequelae of COVID-19 become better recognized in the wake of the pandemic, higher-quality clinical studies are needed.PMID:37577106 | PMC:PMC10422885 | DOI:10.1177/20406223231190548

Part Two: Perspectives on Olfactory and Gustatory Dysfunction Pathophysiology, Management, and Relevance to COVID-19: Current Approaches
CONCLUSIONS: The epidemiology and hypotheses of pathophysiology of post-COVID OGD has been addressed via numerous studies and reviews. However, extremely limited evidence of effective treatment for chronic OGD, in general, exists, Global demand for any treatment capable of reducing or resolving it is unprecedented. Past and present treatment approaches and recently initiated clinical trials, since the onset of the pandemic, have yet to yield any significant results.PMID:37574205

Part 3: Perspectives on Olfactory and Gustatory Dysfunction Pathophysiology, Management and Relevance to COVID-19: Rationale for Auricular Cranial Nerve Stimulation
Altern Ther Health Med. 2023 Aug 11:AT7613. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe rapid global emergence of distortions of the senses of smell and taste consequential to COVID-19 has provoked an unprecedented demand for investigation into treatments capable of addressing such medical phenomena. While the pandemic's principal focus rests on interventions intended to prevent the infection and its spread, much attention must be devoted to amelioration of these common symptomatic sequelae of it. The medical historical record reveals a shocking paucity of serious consideration of olfactory and gustatory dysfunction (OGD), hardly ex...
