Efficacy of Ginger Use for Chemotherapy Induced Nausea and Vomiting in Cancer Patients: Scoping Review: OAJBS Publishers

Efficacy of Ginger Use for Chemotherapy Induced Nausea and Vomiting in Cancer Patients: Scoping Review by Nada Aljehani* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS)


Background: Chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting are the main undesired side effect that distress around 70 % to 80% of cancer patients. Ginger is often advocated as beneficial for nausea and vomiting, whether the herb is truly efficacious for this condition or not it is still a matter of debate.

 Objective: This scoping review is conducted to assess the effect of ginger usage on nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy amongst adult patients with cancer. Methodology: Databases searched include MEDLINE, CINHALE, PubMed and Google scholar for related articles between 2012 to 2019 was performed. After extensive review,188 studies were retrieved from the databases and only 15 studies found eligible according to applied inclusion and exclusion criteria. (14 randomized controlled trails, 1 pilot study) with a total of 1974 patients with different cancer types receiving emetogenic chemotherapy.

 Results: The majority of available evidence demonstrates that ginger is an effective, inexpensive and safe treatment for nausea and vomiting.

 Conclusion: Ginger supplementation can be potentially efficient effects on the patients who receives chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. The results of this scoping review provide significant suggestions for further research using standardized ginger products and reflective larger sample sizes to confirm the efficacy of ginger extract supplement and optimal dosing regimens.

Facile Synthesis of Chitosan Nanoparticle with Different Features and Histopathological Ultrastructural Study on The Effect of Its Bio-complex with Bovine Serum Albumin in Mice Liver by Maged El-Kemary* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS)   We have synthesized chitosan nanoparticles (CS-NPs) with different characteristics using ionic gelation method. Results showed that the synthesized CS-NPs with different concentrations of trisodium polyphosphate (TPP) are irregular – spherical shaped with narrow size distribution and high stability. The microporous chitosan was also synthesized with new features characterized with different techniques as SEM, EDX, FTIR and BET. The synthesized microporous chitosan has a surface area and pore volume of 245.571m 2 /g and 0.155cm 3 /g respectively. Its microporous surface is functionalized with carboxyl and amine groups. Histopathological and ultrastructural studies of mice liver were performed using optical and scanning electron m...

Review on Analysis of Breast Tumor with Methods of Treatment by Nagham Mahmood Aljamali* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Breast malignance is the greatest public in ladies, with a high incidence in North America and Eastern Europe, medium in Southern Europe and the Middle East and low in the Far East. Breast malignance is the second most common malignance in the world after lung malignance, and since it happens a lot, the doctors asked the women to examine themselves by themselves, in order to discover the signs of the disease early before it spreads. It is possible that this disease can be treated after being diagnosed by a specialized doctor and determining the type of tumor in the breast, and the surgeon removes the breast completely and starts chemotherapy about 6 doses, then radiotherapy, how many sessions will be determined by the doctor, and then hormonal therapy, a medicine called Tamoxafin or any medicine determined by the doctor, and it is possible. This ...
