Headache and botulinum toxin [PDF]
The authors discuss clinical and international experience about botulinum toxins (BTX types A and B) in headache treatment. Data from literature suggest good results for the treatment of tension-type headache, migraine and chronic tension-type headache. In the present paper mechanisms of action and injection sites will also be discussed.

Botulinum toxin in ophthalmic plastic surgery
Botulinum toxin chemodenervation has evolved greatly over the past 30 years since its introduction in the 1970s for the management of strabismus. Among ophthalmic plastic surgeons, botulinum toxins are often used as the first line treatment for facial ...

Novel Botulinum Neurotoxins: Exploring Underneath the Iceberg Tip
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), the etiological agents of botulism, are the deadliest toxins known to humans. Yet, thanks to their biological and toxicological features, BoNTs have become sophisticated tools to study neuronal physiology and valuable ...

Botulinum toxin and spasticity [PDF]
The clinical effects of botulinum toxin have been recognised since the end of the 19th century. It is the most potent neurotoxin known and it is produced by the gram negative anaerobic bacterium Clostridium botulinum. The paralytic effect of the toxin is due to blockade of neuromuscular transmission.1 Injection into a muscle causes chemodenervation and

Capsaicin protects neuromuscular junctions from the inhibitory effects of botulinum neurotoxin A [PDF]
Within 24 hrs after injecting botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) into the hindlimb, mice lost the toe spread reflex and developed progressive muscle weakness. At the same time, the compound muscle action potential amplitude decreased. Injection of capsaicin

Cervical Inlet Patches in R‐CPD: An Unrecognized Predictor of Treatment Failure
This retrospective cohort study identified cervical inlet patches (CIP) in 19.8% of patients undergoing cricopharyngeal botulinum toxin injection for R‐CPD. CIP presence and increasing age independently predicted failure to sustain a long‐term treatment response, suggesting that CIP may be an underrecognized factor in R‐CPD treatment durability ...
