Background: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and/or vomiting (CINV) is an intractable adverse effect of anticancer drugs. Although prophylactic use of fosaprepitant may be effective in reducing CINV, there is a lack of studies evaluating the application of fosaprepitant in real world.
Aims And Methods: This study prospectively observed the effectiveness and safety for the prophylaxis of CINV in a real-world clinical setting.

Introduction: The area postrema, located on the floor of the fourth ventricle, regulates vomiting, fluid balance, osmoregulation, and immunomodulation. First documented in 1896, it has been a subject of scientific interest ever since. Area postrema syndrome (APS) is characterised by intractable nausea, vomiting, or hiccups, typically associated with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD).

Objective: Epilepsy is common among patients with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID) patients, often taking a prolonged and intractable course. Lacosamide (LCM) is widely used to treat epilepsy in both adults and children. We assess the efficacy and tolerability of LCM among pediatric and young adult epilepsy patients with SMID who suffer from intractable seizures.

To establish a consensus on the definition and management of idiopathic gastroparesis, international experts (selected by neurogastroenterology and motility societies and initiated by the Rome Foundation) devised 144 statements using the Delphi method, with at least 80% agreement required. This consensus defined idiopathic gastroparesis as the presence of symptoms associated with delayed gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction. Nausea and vomiting were identified as cardinal symptoms.

This is in part due to lack of experience with and knowledge about CHS by health care professionals.
