OBJECTIVE
Nausea and vomiting (NV) related to DMSO affect patients undergoing auto-SCT despite antiemetic measures. Orange flavoring may reduce gastrointestinal symptoms.
METHODS
A multicenter, randomized, three-arm, open-label trial in four Italian large bone marrow transplant centers was conducted
OBJECTIVE
Delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) continues to be a problem in patients undergoing a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) despite progress in antiemetic prophylaxis. This study investigated the clinical course of nausea and vomiting (NV) and retching over the 5 days
DMSO is an amphipathic molecule with a highly polar domain and two apolar methyl groups, making it soluble in both aqueous and organic media. It is one of the most common solvents for the in vivo administration of several water-insoluble substances. Despite being frequently used as a solvent in
OBJECTIVE
Endoscopic sphincterotomy has become a generally accepted method for extracting common bile duct stones in high risk or cholecystectomized patients. However, stone extraction is impossible by the usual methods in 5 to 10% of cases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety of cryopreserved and thawed peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) fractionated return infusions in children. 35 children patients with malignant tumors (13 acute leukaemias, 15 neuroblastomas and 7 malignant lymphomas) received fractionated return
CELL INJURIES DURING FREEZING AND THAWING: The aim of various cryopreservation procedures is to minimize cell injuries during the freeze-thaw cycle (cryoinjuries). Generally, the cell damage during freezing and thawing procedures may be the results of: (a) extensive cellular dehydration (solution
Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic (DMPK) studies are an important phase in drug discovery research. Compounds are administered via the intravascular or extravascular routes to animals to calculate various pharmacokinetic parameters. An important step in this process is dissolving the novel
Hematopoietic cell infusion-related adverse events (HCI-AEs) in hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (HSCTs) have been largely attributed to toxicity of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for cryopreservation, but HSC products also contain various cells and plasma components. Our recent The blowfly, Phormia regina, has sensilla with four contact-chemoreceptor cells and one mechanoreceptor cell on its labellum. Three of the four chemoreceptor cells are called the sugar, the salt and the water receptor cells, respectively. However, the specificity of the remaining chemoreceptor cell,
A 63-year-old woman who started to have polyarthralgia in December 1993 has been diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and treated with muscular injection of gold sodium thiomalate. She began to have nausea, vomiting, anorexia and watery diarrhea in October 1995. A year later, she had to receive
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a recently developed biphasic multicomponent solvent in 39 patients with biliary duct stones that are too large (15-35 mm) to be removed after endoscopic sphincterotomy. From November 1991 to October 1993, 37 patients with common bile duct stones
A total of 15 patients with measurable advanced colorectal adenocarcinoma were prospectively treated with fazarabine (Ara-AC), reconstituted in dimethyl sulfoxide, and administered at a starting dose of 48 mg/m2/day as a continuous intravenous infusion for three days. The dose was repeated every 21
Stool samples from 836 cases with diarrhea and acute gastroenteritis from the Pediatric ward, Penang General Hospital, were examined for Cryptosporidium oocysts. A dimethyl sulfoxide modified acid fast technique was used for the identification of the parasites. 36 samples or 4.3% were found to be
Adverse events (AEs) associated with blood transfusions, including component-specific red cell, platelet, and plasma products, have been extensively surveyed. In contrast, surveillance of AEs associated with hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) products in HSC transplantation (HSCT) has been less rigorous,
High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplantation is used in the treatment of chemosensitive malignancies. Cryopreservation of PBPC in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been the standard procedure in most institutions. Infusion of PBPC
