摘要

背景:阿西尔省是沙特阿拉伯西南部的半干旱地区。它代表了民族植物学知识和植物生物多样性的丰富来源。然而,这种知识是口头传递的,缺乏文档。方法:采用相对被引频次(RFC)和相对被引频次(RFC)等定量指标,首次开展民族植物学调查。知情者共识因子;保真度(FL%);相对受欢迎程度(RPL)和排序优先级(ROP)),以深入了解阿西尔省药用植物(MPs)的传统使用。结果:150名年龄在18岁至60岁以上的被调查者提到了被子植物38科80种不同的植物,用于治疗9种疾病。与附近地区的文献比较发现,只有在东南亚地区才有10种被用作MPs。香薷和薄荷的RFC最高(0.71)。对于用于治疗皮肤病的植物种类,告密者之间的一致程度非常高(ICF = 0.88)。在使用MPs治疗虫咬、糖尿病、胃肠疾病、高血压、骨骼肌疾病、牙痛、口腔炎症、压力和失眠、感冒和呼吸道疾病方面,被调查者的一致性较低(ICF = 0.66-0.86)。此外,至少有9名告密者提到的36种植物的愈合率(FL%)在32 - 100之间。其中流行种12种(RPL = 0.54-1)。结论:本文的研究成果可为进一步的药理、植物化学研究和保护研究提供依据。

Ethnobotanical study on medicinal plants used in the Aseer province, Southwestern Saudi Arabia.

Ethnobotanical study on medicinal plants used in the Aseer province, Southwestern Saudi Arabia.

Ethnobotanical study on medicinal plants used in the Aseer province, Southwestern Saudi Arabia.

Ethnobotanical study on medicinal plants used in the Aseer province, Southwestern Saudi Arabia.

Background: Aseer province is a semi-arid region in Southwestern Saudi Arabia. It represents a rich source of ethnobotanical knowledge and plant biodiversity. However, this knowledge has been passed verbally devoid of documentation.

Methods: In the present work, we carried out for the first time an ethnobotanical survey, using quantitative parameters (relative frequency of citation (RFC); informant consensus factor (ICF); fidelity level (FL%); relative popularity level (RPL), and rank-order priority (ROP)), to provide insights into the traditional use of medicinal plants (MPs) in the Aseer province.

Results: One hundred and fifty informants, aged 18 to over 60, mentioned 80 different plant species belonging to 38 families of angiosperms to treat 9 ailments. A comparison with the literature in nearby areas revealed 10 species used as MPs only in the Aseer region. Syzygium aromaticum and Mentha spicata had the highest RFC (0.71). The level of agreement among the informants, for plant species used against dermatological problems, was remarkably high (ICF = 0.88). A lower level of agreement (ICF = 0.66-0.86) was noticed among the informants concerning the use of MPs to treat insect bites, diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders, hypertension, skeletomuscular disorders, toothache, mouth inflammation, stress and insomnia, and cold and respiratory tract diseases. In addition, 36 plant species, mentioned by at least 9 informants, had healing efficacity (FL%) ranging between 32 and 100. Among these species, 12 were grouped as popular (RPL = 0.54-1).

Conclusion: The present documentation on MPs can efficiently provide as a basis for additional pharmacological and phytochemical research and conservation studies.

期刊介绍: Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine publishes original research focusing on cultural perceptions of nature and of human and animal health. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine invites research articles, reviews and commentaries concerning the investigations of the inextricable links between human societies and nature, food, and health. Specifically, the journal covers the following topics: ethnobotany, ethnomycology, ethnozoology, ethnoecology (including ethnopedology), ethnogastronomy, ethnomedicine, ethnoveterinary, as well as all related areas in environmental, nutritional, and medical anthropology. Research focusing on the implications that the inclusion of humanistic, cultural, and social dimensions have in understanding the biological word is also welcome, as well as its potential projections in public health-centred, nutritional, and environmental policies.
