A neurotoxin (trade name Botox) that is used clinically in small quantities to treat strabismus and facial spasms and other neurological disorders characterized by abnormal muscle contractions; is also used by cosmetic surgeons to smooth frown lines temporarily.
We found no significant differences between botulinumtoxinA or B.
2
Purpose of review: Reports and studies on botulinumtoxinA in headache treatment are increasing.
3
The findings were consistent regardless of patients' age as well as the botulinumtoxinA dose and injection strategy used.
4
He said the study had no funding source and wasn't linked to any companies that make botulinumtoxinA products.
5
He said the study had no outside funding source and wasn't linked to any companies that make botulinumtoxinA products.
6
We will include trials testing the effectiveness of calcitonin gene-related peptide antagonists or botulinumtoxinA in patients with chronic migraine.
7
Background: We evaluated effects of botulinumtoxinA (Botox) and cast immobilization on tendon healing in a rat model.
8
Patients who started out having headaches almost daily reported two fewer headaches per month when they were given injections of botulinumtoxinA.
9
They were randomly allocated to the intervention group (multilevel botulinumtoxinA and comprehensive rehabilitation) or the control group (usual care).
10
A unilateral injection of botulinumtoxinA (BTxA) in the calf induces paralysis and profound loss of ipsalateral trabecular bone within days.
11
The evidence for other measures, including physiotherapy, alternative strategies aimed at improving bladder emptying, other medications and detrusor injections of botulinumtoxinA was reviewed.
12
This review is to assess the comparative effectiveness and safety of calcitonin gene-related peptide antagonists and botulinumtoxinA for chronic migraine using network meta-analysis.
13
To begin to address this issue, we have developed a novel murine model of unilateral transient hindlimb muscle paralysis using botulinumtoxinA (Botox).
