Introduction: We compared the efficacy of first-generation granisetron and second-generation palonosetron in triplet anti-emetic prophylaxis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving cisplatin-based high emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC).

Methods: This prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, observational study was conducted between June 2018 and December 2021. Patients diagnosed with NSCLC who received triplet anti-emetic prophylactic treatment with aprepitant and dexamethasone plus granisetron or palonosetron before the first cycle of chemotherapy were included in the study.

Department of Ophthalmology (R.O., G.S., E.S., M.O., N.Z.), Meram Faculty of Medicine, Necmettin Erbakan University, Konya, Turkey; and Ophthalmology Department (I.E.), 18 March University Faculty of Medicine, Canakkale, Turkey.

Purpose: To evaluate the changes in corneal biomechanical properties and intraocular pressure (IOP) during fasting period in healthy subjects.

Methods: Seventy-two eyes of 72 fasting subjects (study group), and 62 eyes of 62 nonfasting subjects (control group) were enrolled in this prospective study undertaken at a single university hospital. All subjects underwent complete ophthalmologic examination including ocular biomechanical evaluation with ocular response analyzer.
