Title: A risk prediction model for nausea and vomiting after TACE : a cross-sectional study
Version: 4 Date: 04 Apr 2025
Reviewer's report:
Abstract
Purpose – add tace ‘for liver cancer’
The study “will” should be in past tense.  “The study included”
Intro – define all cancers you are including in ‘liver cancer’ definition
I like the comparison to CINV and PONV.
Last sentence in intro  says “his study”  Needs to be “this study”
Methods
Its somewhat confusing to have inclusion exclusion lumped together especially in the last
paragraph regarding nursing procedures.
Discussion
The review of what TACE is, although helpful, perhaps can be shortened or added to the
introduction instead.
Overall provides information on what the risk factors would be for nausea and vomiting.  Would
also suggest adding proposed next steps to validate this tool and use in trial to see if it can
decrease actual nausea and vomiting.
