      chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting among cancer patients: a systematic 
      review of six randomized controlled trials.

AB  - PURPOSE: Previous systematic review suggested a beneficial effect of progressive 
      muscle relaxation (PMR) for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. However, poor 
      quality of eligible studies which included in previous systematic review impaired 
      the reliability and validity of findings. The aim of the present systematic 
      review was to further assess the value of PMR in chemotherapy-induced nausea and 
      vomiting. METHODS: We assigned two independent investigators to search potential 
      studies in PubMed, Cochrane Controlled Register of Trial (CENTRAL), Cumulative 
      Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), China Biomedical 
      Literature database (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and 
      Wanfang Data database. We used data extraction sheet to extract essential 
      information, and used the Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool to appraise the 
      quality of eligible studies. Finally, we qualitatively summarized the results of 
      all included studies. RESULTS: Six studies enrolling 288 patients were included 
      finally. Of these 6 studies, three were labeled as moderate quality and the 
      remaining studies were low quality. All included studies consistently suggested 
      that PMR has a positive effect on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, 
      especially on the incidence, frequency, and degree of delayed nausea and 
      vomiting. CONCLUSION: Independent studies indicated that PMR was a beneficial 
      approach of preventing and alleviating chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting 
      among cancer patients. However, further studies enrolling other types of primary 
      tumors should be designed in order to increase the generality of PMR because 
      studies which were included in the present systematic review mainly considered 
      patients with lung cancer and breast cancer. Moreover, future studies with high 
      quality and large-scale are also warranted in order to address the limitations in 
      the present systematic review such as poor quality and limited data of eligible 
      studies.
