Abstract

Objective: Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) encompass several conditions that cause pain and impair function of the masticatory muscles (M-TMDs) and temporomandibular joints. There is a large interest among clinicians and researchers in the use of botulinum toxin-A (BoNT-A) as a treatment for M-TMD. However, due to the lack of consistent evidence regarding the efficacy as well as adverse events of BoNT-A, clinical decision making is challenging. Therefore, this umbrella review aimed to systematically assess systematic reviews (SRs) evaluating BoNT-A treatment effects on pain intensity, mandibular movements, and adverse events in patients with M-TMDs.

Method: An electronic search was undertaken in the databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, Epistemonikos, ClinicalTrials.gov, and ICTRP to identify SRs investigating BoNT-A effects on M-TMDs, published from the inception of each database until 6 December 2023. The quality of evidence was rated according to the critical appraisal checklist developed by the umbrella review methodology working group. Only high-quality SRs were included.

Results: In total, 18 SRs were included. BoNT-A was shown to be more effective than placebo to reduce pain intensity, but not compared to standard treatments. Additionally, BoNT-A was not superior to placebo or standard treatments regarding improvement of mandibular movements. BoNT-A was considered to have a higher risk for adverse events on muscle and bony tissue compared with other treatments.

Conclusion: The synthesis in this umbrella review provides the highest level of evidence present. Taken together, there are indications of effectiveness of BoNT-A for treatment of M-TMDs, supported by moderate evidence. However, considering the risk of causing serious adverse events, treatment with BoNT-A is recommended to be the last treatment alternative.

治疗肌源性颞下颌关节紊乱症的肉毒杆菌毒素 A：系统综述》。

目的：颞下颌关节紊乱症（TMDs）包括多种会引起疼痛并损害咀嚼肌（M-TMDs）和颞下颌关节功能的疾病。临床医生和研究人员对使用肉毒杆菌毒素-A（BoNT-A）治疗 M-TMD 非常感兴趣。然而，由于缺乏有关 BoNT-A 疗效和不良反应的一致证据，临床决策具有挑战性。因此，本综述旨在系统评估评价 BoNT-A 治疗对 M-TMDs 患者的疼痛强度、下颌运动和不良事件影响的系统性综述（SR）：在 MEDLINE、EMBASE、CINAHL、Cochrane 对照试验中央登记处 (CENTRAL)、Web of Science、Epistemonikos、ClinicalTrials.gov 和 ICTRP 等数据库中进行电子检索，以确定自各数据库建立之初至 2023 年 12 月 6 日期间发表的研究 BoNT-A 对 M-TMDs 影响的 SR。证据质量根据伞式综述方法工作组制定的关键评估清单进行评分。结果：结果：共纳入了 18 篇研究报告。研究表明，BoNT-A 在降低疼痛强度方面比安慰剂更有效，但与标准治疗方法相比效果不佳。此外，在改善下颌运动方面，BoNT-A 也不优于安慰剂或标准疗法。与其他治疗方法相比，BoNT-A 被认为对肌肉和骨骼组织产生不良反应的风险较高：本综述提供了目前最高水平的证据。综合来看，有迹象表明 BoNT-A 对治疗 M-TMDs 有效，并有中等程度的证据支持。然而，考虑到引起严重不良事件的风险，建议将 BoNT-A 作为最后的治疗选择。
