In-vitro and in-vivo studies have led to useful clues to certain common inflammation-regulatory mechanisms of these traditional medicines against COVID-19 [4] , viral infections [5] and other inflammation-related disease conditions (Supplementary Table S1 ). Despite the incomplete investigations, the multi-omics data analysis revealed the inflammation-promoting adverse effects by 5 of the 8 traditional medicines (Table 1) , consistent with the reported pneumonitis and lung injury in the patients of interstitial lung diseases given various kampo formulations [3] . The multi-omics data analysis also provides useful indications about whether the pros of these traditional medicines outweigh the cons for the patients of the inflammationrelated disease conditions.	./cache/cord-253392-cws6uj3c.txt	./txt/cord-253392-cws6uj3c.txt
