Traditional knowledge is an important source of obtaining new phytotherapeutic agents. Ethnobotanical survey of medicinal plants was conducted in Nossa Senhora Aparecida do Chumbo District (NSACD), located in Poconé, Mato Grosso, Brazil using semi-structured questionnaires and interviews. 376 species of medicinal plants belonging to 285 genera and 102 families were cited. Fabaceae (10.2%), Asteraceae (7.82%) and Lamaceae (4.89%) families are of greater importance. Species with the greater relative importance were Himatanthus obovatus (1.87), Hibiscus sabdariffa (1.87), Solidago microglossa (1.80), Strychnos pseudoquina (1.73) and Dorstenia brasiliensis, Scoparia dulcis L., and Luehea divaricata (1.50). The informant consensus factor (ICF) ranged from 0.13 to 0.78 encompassing 18 disease categories,of which 15 had ICF greater than 0.50, with a predominance of disease categories related to injuries, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (ICF = 0.78) having 65 species cited while 20 species were cited for mental and behavioral disorders (ICF = 0.77). The results show that knowledge about medicinal plants is evenly distributed among the population of NSACD. This population possesses medicinal plants for most disease categories, with the highest concordance for prenatal, mental/behavioral and respiratory problems.
传统知识是获得新植物疗法药物的重要来源。采用半结构式问卷和访谈，对巴西马托格罗索州波科内的诺萨塞纳达阿帕雷西达杜钦博区（NSACD）的药用植物进行了民族植物学调查。共引用了 376 种药用植物，隶属于 285 属和 102 科。豆科（10.2%）、菊科（7.82%）和唇形科（4.89%）最为重要。相对重要性较大的物种有 Himatanthus obovatus（1.87）、Hibiscus sabdariffa（1.87）、Solidago microglossa（1.80）、Strychnos pseudoquina（1.73）和 Dorstenia brasiliensis、Scoparia dulcis L. 和 Luehea divaricata（1.50）。信息共识因子（ICF）范围为 0.13 至 0.78，涵盖 18 种疾病类别，其中 15 种疾病类别的 ICF 大于 0.50，以与损伤、中毒和某些外部原因的其他后果相关的疾病类别为主（ICF=0.78），共引用了 65 种物种，而 20 种物种被引用用于治疗精神和行为障碍（ICF=0.77）。结果表明，NSACD 人群对药用植物的知识分布均匀。该人群拥有大多数疾病类别的药用植物，对产前、精神/行为和呼吸问题的一致性最高。
