Methods: We conducted a randomized double-blind, active-controlled, clinical trial. A total of 70 subjects with SCD ages 5-12 years were enrolled into the study with 35 in the intervention group and 35 in the control group; 61 completed the trial (32 from the intervention group and 29 from the control group). Results: Participants in the intervention group were significantly less likely to experience crises compared to subjects in the control group. None of the subjects in the intervention group experienced any form of vaso- occlusive crisis (VOC) compared to 93.1% of the subjects in the controlled group. Additionally, the intervention group experienced a significantly higher increase in their hemoglobin concentration from baseline (2.92 g/dL, 95% CI [2.33, 3.51]) compared the control group (1.77 g/dL, 95% CI [1.00, 2.54]). The intervention group experi- enced a significantly higher increase in their mean weight from baseline (4.47 Kg, 95% CI [4.02, 4.92]) while the control group experienced a decrease (-1.05 Kg, 95% CI [-1.60, -0.51]).

  • Medicinal Dietary Plants of the Yi in Mile, Yunnan, China
    Sun et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2020) 16:48 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13002-020-00400-5 RESEARCH Open Access Medicinal dietary plants of the Yi in Mile, Yunnan, China Jingxian Sun1,2†, Yong Xiong2,3†, Yanhong Li2, Qingsong Yang2, Yijian Chen2, Mengyuan Jiang2, Yukui Li2, Hongrui Li2, Zizhen Bi2, Xiangzhong Huang2* and Shugang Lu1* Abstract Background: The Yi is the largest ethnic group in Yunnan Province (China), with a population of five million. The Yi people tend to live in mountainous areas, and their culture includes a unique dietary system for treating and protecting people against illnesses. Medicinal plants occupy an essential place in the Yi diet because they play a key role in health and the prevention and treatment of diseases. However, few studies have addressed these medicinal dietary plants and their importance in the Yi’s daily lives. The aim of this study was to (1) investigate the medicinal dietary plants used by the Yi in Mile City, (2) document the traditional knowledge held about these plants, (3) identify species with important cultural significance to the Yi in Mile City, and (4) analyze the special preparation methods and consumption habits of these plants. Methods: Field investigations were performed in six villages in Mile City, Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan, from July 2017 to May 2018. Information was collected using direct observation, semi-structured interviews, key informant interviews, individual discussions, and focus group discussions. The use value (UV) and frequency of utilization index (FUI) of these plants were analyzed. Plant samples and voucher specimens were collected for taxonomic identification.

    AN INVESTIGATION OF THE INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONAL MEDICINE TRADE AS AN INTRODUCTION PATHWAY FOR ALIEN PLANTS INTO SOUTH AFRICA Amy Burness 1775106 Supervisors: Prof. Marcus J. Byrne Dr. Vivienne L. Williams A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Johannesburg, 2019 Declaration I declare that this dissertation is my own, unaided work. It is being submitted for the Degree of Master of Science at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination at any other University. _________________________________ (Signature of candidate) 12th day of August 2019 at the University of the Witwatersrand i Abstract Pathways of alien species introduction are important in the assessment of biological invasions in South Africa. Although viable alien plants are used as traditional medicine (TM) in South Africa, the international traditional health industry has largely not been explored as an introduction pathway. Semi-quantitative interviews and ethnobotanical free listing methods are used to explore the alien plants introduced by immigrant traders from China (138 sp.), the Democratic Republic of Congo (25 sp.), Eritrea (21 sp.), Ethiopia (20 sp.), Ghana (9 sp.), India (35 sp.), Nigeria (25 sp.), and Somalia (11 sp.). Two hundred and fourteen TM species were introduced from multiple sources, through different routes, using human mediated transport vectors (sea, road and air). One hundred and one species were introduced as propagules, 19 of which were viable. Zingiber officinale, Nigella sativa and Moringa oleifera pose a threat as invasive species introduced through the TM pathway.

    Wang et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2021) 17:19 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13002-021-00447-y RESEARCH Open Access Ethnobotanical study on herbal market at the Dragon Boat Festival of Chuanqing people in China Qinghe Wang1, Ling Zhao1, Chi Gao1, Jiawen Zhao2, Zixuan Ren2, Yuxiang Shen3, Ruyu Yao4* and Hongxiang Yin2* Abstract Background: The Chuanqing people (穿青人) are a linguistic group native to the Guizhou Province of China, with unique culture and rich knowledge of traditional medicinal plants. Herbal market at Dragon Boat Festival (DBF) plays an important role in the inheritance of traditional medicinal knowledge among the Chuanqing people. This study aims to record the profile of medicinal plants of the Chuanqing people, discuss the dilemmas faced by their inheritance, and propose some strategies for passing down information, which is critical for the inheritance and protection of the Chuanqing people’s traditional medical knowledge. Methods: Data were collected through key informants and semi-structured interviews and free listing. Collected voucher specimens were identified using by botanical taxonomy method and deposited in the herbarium. Data were analyzed through use-value (UV) and cultural importance index (CI) values. Medicinal plants were compared with the Information System of Chinese Rare and Endangered Plants of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Results were compared with the Pharmacopoeia of the People’s Republic of China (ChP), the Quality Standard of Traditional Chinese Medicine and National Medicine in Guizhou Province (QSG), and traditional medicines of Southeast Asian countries. Results: A total of 102 species from 53 families and 92 genera were recorded, with Orchidaceae and Asparagaceae (six species each), and Berberidaceae and Asteraceae (five species each) as the predominant families.
