However, traditional knowledge is increasingly threatened by urbanization and limited intergenerational transmission. This study aimed to document and analyze the ethnopharmacological knowledge of medicinal plants used for parasitosis in five suburban communities of Campeche, Mexico, and to assess its conservation status.&lt;strong&gt; Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;A crosssectional descriptive study was conducted using 247 semi-structured interviews in Castamay, Nohakal, Tikinmul, Kobén, and Imí. Data on plant knowledge, use, preparation, cultivation, and transmission were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistics and ethnobotanical indices, including relative frequency of mention (RFM), relative frequency of citation (RFC), and community knowledge index (CI). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 76% of respondents reported knowledge of at least one antiparasitic medicinal plant. The most cited species were &lt;em&gt;Dysphania ambrosioides, Cocos nucifera, Origanum vulgare, Artemisia vulgaris&lt;/em&gt;, and &lt;em&gt;Ricinus communis&lt;/em&gt;. Most plants were also used as food or condiments, although &lt;em&gt;D. ambrosioides&lt;/em&gt; was specifically recognized for its antiparasitic properties. Higher CI values were observed in Castamay (4.29), Tikinmul (3.87), and Nohakal (3.80), whereas lower values were found in Kobén (2.89) and Imí (3.30). Knowledge transmission and cultivation practices were limited across communities. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;Suburban communities in Campeche retain relevant ethnopharmacological knowledge; however, lower knowledge indices in more urbanized communities suggest ongoing cultural erosion. These findings highlight the need to strengthen documentation, intergenerational transmission, and sustainable management of medicinal plants to support both biodiversity conservation and culturally appropriate public health strategies.&lt;/p&gt;

It is a lifestyle disease which may cause a number of complications in the body of humans like cardiac failure and dysfunctioning of urinary tract. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The data is obtained from various search tools and electronic databases like, scientific literature, Google scholar, Google, Pubmed, Web of science and Scopus. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Major therapy for diabetes is insulin, oralantidiabetic drugs, and herbal treatment. However, insulin and oral anti-diabetic drugs come with a number of side effects and cannot be afforded by people with below poverty line. The herbal medicines have performed a satisfactory clinical practice for the management of diabetes mellitus. Moreover, pharmacological &amp;amp; phytochemical screening of medicinal plants has also witnessed the hypoglycaemic effects of these plants in treating diabetes mellitus. Majority of the modern drugs like metformin, atropine, digitalis, etc. are also originated from plants. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The current paper presents a review of medicinal plants used for diabetes management in India. The therapeutic potential, ethnobotanical use, and their pharmacological evaluations are highlighted for harnessing the anti-diabetic potential of these plants by the Indian healthcare system.&lt;/p&gt;

The plant is included in the Official List of Brazilian Medicinal Plants of interest to the Brazilian Unified Health System. The study aimed to perfom microbiological studies with extracts of &lt;em&gt;Momordica charanthia&lt;/em&gt; L. including chemical characterization of the active extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The antimicrobial activity was evaluated with the hydroalcoholic and acetone extracts of&lt;em&gt; M. charantia&lt;/em&gt; leaves, fruits and seeds from northeastern Brazil using microdilution broth technique on the selected clinical bacterial and fungal strains. Extracts that presented antimicrobial were subjected to ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QToF-ESI-MS). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;antimicrobial assays demonstrated that the leaves extracts presented good antibacterial effect against four &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus &lt;/em&gt;strains, and a weak antifungal activity agaist &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans&lt;/em&gt;. Fourteen compounds were identified in the hydroalcoholic extract, while 12 were found in the acetone extract. The most important compounds were kaempferol, quercertin and triterpenoids like cucurbitacins. &lt;strong&gt;Conclussion: &lt;/strong&gt;The present study demonstrated the potential antibacterial activity of &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt; L. from northeastern part of Brazil, in addition to important phytochemical metabolites known to possess antibacterial activities, particularly against microrganisms of clinical importance. The UPLC phytochemical profile of the Brazilian variety is reported here for the first time. The phytochemical profile of the LHE and FAE demonstrated the presence of biologically and pharmacologically active compounds. There is lack of biological and pharmacological studies to support the medicinal uses of this important plant. The Brazilian variety of &lt;em&gt;M. Charantia &lt;/em&gt;could be a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment of infections.&lt;/p&gt;
