BackgroundCancer is the main cause of death worldwide, and chemotherapy is the basic method of treating cancer. However, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is the most common side effect of chemotherapy, and conventional antiemetics for the treatment of CINV also have side effects. At present, a large number of randomized controlled trials have shown that Xiang-Sha-Liu-Jun-Zi (XSLJZ) can effectively treat CINV, but there is no systematic review. Therefore, this systematic review aims to discuss the effectiveness of XSLJZ in the treatment of CINV.MethodsSearch for relevant documents in the Chinese and English databases, and the search time is limited to March 2021. Databases include Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chongqing VIP Information Resource Integration Service Platform, Wanfang Data, Chinese Biomedical Literature, etc. We will search the international clinical trial registration platform and the Chinese clinical trial registration platform to find ongoing and unpublished clinical trials. Randomized controlled trial of the efficacy of XSLJZ in the treatment of CINV were collected. After screening the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two researchers independently extracted the data. The effective rate of treatment is the main outcome indicator of this study. The secondary indicators of this study include the incidence of adverse reactions and the improvement rate of quality of life. RevMan 5.3.5 software was used for statistical analysis. Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system will be used to evaluate the quality evidence for each outcome.ResultsThis study will provide the latest evidence for the treatment of CINV by XSLJZ.Conclusion: To evaluate the efficacy of XSLJZ in the treatment of CINV.Unique Inplasy NumberINPLASY202140079.Copyright © 2021 the Author(s).
