A review of empirical research conducted at the Centro Espírita Beneficente União do Vegetal (UDV), a religion that uses a psychoactive sacrament called Hoasca or Vegetal (also known as ayahuasca), made from Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis. The review covers master's theses and doctoral dissertations defended between 1995 and 2016, mapping the topics, relationships, and interfaces investigated. The authors offer their own comments and impressions from reading the texts, aiming to orient future researchers.
