Age of Pediatric Patients Affects Delayed Chemotherapy-Induced Vomiting.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for delayed chemotherapy-induced vomiting (DCIV) in pediatric oncology patients. We collected data on pediatric patients from a tertiary care pediatric hospital in an Asian urban center. We analyzed the risk factors for DCIV in patients by univariate analysis and logistic regression.

Swallowing function after acute ischemic stroke: Development and validation of a novel clinical prognostic model.

Background: Predicting the duration of dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is important for clinical treatment decisions.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess the swallowing function of AIS patients and to develop and validate a prognostic model for the need for nasogastric tube (NGT) in these patients.

Materials And Methods: We included 554 AIS patients during 2018-2019 as the development group and had 186 AIS patients as the external validation group.

Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor mimicking type II neurofibromatosis: A case report.

Rationale: Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images of atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) often present heterogeneous signals of various cells without remarkable features of the disease. We describe a unique case of atypical brain MRI images presenting as an type II neurofibromatosis and explore some diagnostic hints.

Patient Concerns: A 1-year-and-7-month-old boy admitted to our department with a 7-day history of drowsiness and 2-day history of emesis, and his presenting complaint was repeated vomit.
