Vitamin D supplementation has been shown to protect against SARS-COV-2 infection, and could be particularly helpful for patients that exhibit shortage of vitamin D (e.g. seniors, immunocompromised patients) leading to complications such as cardiovascular comorbidities. This graph explains the mechanism of action of vitamin D in COVID-19 via key genes implicated. Explore the live graph.
There is growing amount of evidence to suggest the use of pharmaceuticals that target the Renin-Angiotensin System (e.g. angiotensin 1-7, ARBs and ACE inhibitors) may be beneficial in the treatment of COVID-19. This graph shows the interconnections among these classes of drugs, and SARS-CoV-2 via key genes implicated in this pathway. mediated. Explore the live … Read More
Azithromycin is being tested in COVID-19 patients. Although it is a potent antibiotic, in the COVID-19 setting, it likely acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. Its exact MoA in the disease, however, remains to be elucidated. Explore the live graph.
Dexamethasone is a widely-used and safe steroid that has been studied in the context of treating viral respiratory disorders, and is THE FIRST drug that has been shown to reduce mortality of patients with severe COVID-19. Explore the live graph.
In addition to respiratory symptoms, novel findings have shown vascular complications in a series of patients with COVID-19, suggesting that COVID-19 is more to a respiratory infection caused by SARS-CoV-2. This graph illustrates some of the possible mechanisms (genes) by which these effects of SARS-CoV-2 may be mediated. Explore the live graph.
