Abstract

Centella Asiatica, also known as gotu kola, is a widely used herbal plant in traditional medicine, especially across Asia. Recent studies have shown the preventive and therapeutic potential of Centella Asiatica in various medical conditions, particularly in eye health, otorhinolaryngology (ENT), and psychiatry. This systematic literature review aims to evaluate the scientific evidence regarding the preventive benefits of Centella Asiatica in these three health domains: ophthalmology, ENT, and psychiatry. Literature searches were conducted through PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and ScienceDirect. Inclusion criteria included articles published in the last five years, studies using controlled clinical or experimental methods, and relevance to the use of Centella Asiatica in eye, ENT, and psychiatric health. The selection and evaluation process followed the PRISMA guidelines. A total of 12 studies met the inclusion criteria and showed positive findings on the preventive effects of Centella Asiatica in all three domains. Centella Asiatica demonstrates significant potential as a preventive agent in modern medicine, particularly for eye, ENT, and mental health issues. However, further research with stronger study designs and longer durations is needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract

Ear, Nose, Throat (ENT) and pulmonary diseases such as pharyngitis, sinusitis, and bronchitis are common health issues that significantly contribute to global morbidity, especially among vulnerable populations. Herbal-based preventive approaches are gaining popularity due to their natural origin, minimal side effects, and potential to enhance immune function. This study aims to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of recent literature on the effectiveness of herbal remedies as preventive agents against ENT and pulmonary infections, using the PRISMA protocol. Data were collected from PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect for the period 2019–2024. Five studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed quantitatively. The results indicate that herbs such as ginger (Zingiber officinale), eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus), a combination of propolis and Echinacea purpurea, licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), and Phyllanthus niruri demonstrate significant preventive effects against upper respiratory tract infections, with an average effectiveness ranging from 36% to 46% and a combined mean of 40%. The forest plot analysis shows the highest effect from the propolis-echinacea combination (46%), followed by ginger (43%) and licorice (40%). These findings support the potential role of certain herbs as preventive agents; however, larger-scale clinical trials are needed for further validation. The integration of herbal medicine into modern preventive practices requires solid evidence-based approaches and clear regulation.
