Gender and Its Role in the Resilience of Local Medical Systems of the Fulni‐ô People in NE Brazil: Effects on Structure and Functionality

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Ethnobotanical studies focused on understanding how local medical systems are functionally maintained suggest that utilitarian redundancy and knowledge transmission are factors that influence the resilience of the system. However, to date, there have not been any studies that analyze these factors in relation to the variables that influence the ...

The Confrontation between Ethnopharmacology and Pharmacological Tests of Medicinal Plants Associated with Mental and Neurological Disorders

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
For neurological disorders, pharmacological tests have shown promising results in the reduction of side effects when using plants with known therapeutic effects in the treatment of some types of dementia. Therefore, the goals of this study are to gather data about the major medicinal plants used in the nervous system as described in ...

Levels of Tannins and Flavonoids in Medicinal Plants: Evaluating Bioprospecting Strategies

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
There are several species of plants used by traditional communities in the Brazilian semiarid. An approach used in the search for natural substances that possess therapeutic value is ethnobotany or ethnopharmacology. Active substances that have phenolic groups in their structure have great pharmacological potential.

Plant Stem Bark Extractivism in the Northeast Semiarid Region of Brazil: A New Aport to Utilitarian Redundancy Model

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
We use the model of utilitarian redundancy as a basis for research. This model provides predictions that have not been tested by other research. In this sense, we sought to investigate the stem bark extraction between preferred and less‐preferred species by a rural community in Caatinga environment.

Antinociceptive Activity of the Chloroform Fraction of Dioclea virgata (Rich.) Amshoff (Fabaceae) in Mice

BioMed Research International, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
Acute treatment with the chloroform fraction of Dioclea virgata (Rich.) Amshoff (CFDv) in mice produced decreased ambulation and sedation in the behavioral pharmacological screening. Doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg CFDv decreased latency of sleep onset in the test of sleeping time potentiation. In the open field, animals treated with CFDv reduced ambulation
