Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is a rare cause of small bowel obstruction (SBO) resulting from compression of the duodenum by the SMA. Patients at risk of developing SMA syndrome include those who have experienced rapid weight loss from chronic illnesses, malignancy, bariatric surgery,
Anticholinergic drugs based on tropane alkaloids, including atropine, scopolamine, and hyoscyamine, have been used for various medicinal and toxic purposes for millennia. These drugs are competitive antagonists of acetylcholine muscarinic (M-) receptors that potently modulate the central nervous

BACKGROUND
Anticipatory nausea (AN) is a poorly controlled side effect experienced by chemotherapy patients. Currently, pharmacotherapy is restricted to benzodiazepine anxiolytics, which have limited efficacy, have significant sedative effects and induce dependency. The non-psychoactive
The aim of this study was to compare the abilities of cannabidiolic acid methyl ester (HU-580) and cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) to enhance 5-HT1A receptor activation in vitro and produce 5-HT1A -mediated reductions in nausea and anxiety in vivo.
We investigated the effects of HU-580 and CBDA on (i)

Background and objectives: We investigated the effects of a carbohydrate-whey protein solution on aged patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.
Methods and study design: Forty
Many cancer patients receiving chemotherapy experience fatigue, disturbed circadian rhythms, anorexia and a variety of dyspeptic symptoms including nausea. There is no animal model for this 'chemotherapy-related malaise' so we investigated the behavioural and molecular effects of a potent
A 42-year-old white man had headache, fever, chills, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, night sweats, and dark urine for 3 days before admission; he had history of a tick bite 6 weeks earlier. Progressive systemic deterioration, heralded by progressive hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia, occurred
