Objective Systematic evaluation of cerebrolysin in the treatment of neonatal hypoxic -ischemic encephalopathy.Methods Computer search Cochrane Library, EMBase, PubMed, Chinese Journal Full-text Database (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), Wanfang Database ( each database retrieval time from its creation to May 2016 ) About cerebrolysin Randomized controlled clinical trial of neonatal hypoxic -ischemic encephalopathy.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the literature, the methodological quality of the included research was evaluated and the data were extracted.Metadata was analyzed by RevMan 5.3 software.Results A total of 41 RCT patients were enrolled, with a total of 3695 patients, the experimental group was 1932 cases, the control group was 1763 cases.Meta analysis showed, the efficacy of cerebrolysin in the treatment of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy was significantly higher than that in the control group [OR=3.85, 95% CI (3.15,4.70), P<0.000001], for the impact of clinical symptoms, the number of primitive reflexes of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group [MD=-1.22, 95% CI ( -2.06,-0.38), P=0.004], muscle tension recovery days[MD=-1.69, 95% CI ( -1.80,-1.58), P<0.00001], conscious state recovery days[MD=-1.32, 95% CI ( -2.25,-0.40), P=0.005], seizure recovery days [MD=-2.36, 95% CI ( -3.70, -1.03), P =0.0005], and other indicators were shorter than the control group, the difference between the experimental group and the control group was statistically significant.Conclusion Cerebrolysin havean effective in treating HIE.

Cerebrolysin is an aqueous mixture of amino acids extracted from porcine brain.Cerebrolysin, contains a variety of amino acids and low molecular weight peptides, are permeable to the blood-brain barrier and blood-ocular barrier and can directly act on neurons in the CNS.As amino acid-based neuroprotective reagents, cerebrolysin can improve the neuronal metabolism, promote synapse formation and induce neuronal differentiation, and thus elicit neuroprotective efffectagainst insults such as ischemia , neurotoxins and so on.Cerebrolysin is clinicly used to treat eye diseases such as traumatic eye damage, glaucoma, optic atrophy ect.This paper systematically summarizes the studies on preclinical and clinical application of cerebrolysin in ophthalmology.

Cerebrolysin is an aqueous mixture of amino acids extracted from porcine brain, and mainly composed of 85% free amino acids and 15%small peptides. Cerebrolysin increase the metabolism of amino acids and glucose transport in the brain, improve the anti-anoxia ability of cells, and to enhance the brain's resistance to various types of malignant stimulation like stress and damage. Cerebrolysin can also promote synapse formation, induce neuronal differentiation, and help reverse brain injury. Because of its efficacy and safety, cerebrolysin has been widely used in the pediatric clinical practice, and primarily to treat neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, childcerebral palsy, hyperactivity disorder, speech communication disorders, etc.The clinical symptoms were improved to some extent after the treatment of cerebrolysin. The recovery of consciousness, enhancement of comprehensionand memory, and improvement of the extremity motor function were observed. The treatment of cerebrolysincan not only enhance the cure rate, but also reduce the incidence of sequelae. This paper systematically summarized the clinical application of cerebrolysin in the pediatric population and relevant preclinical studies, to provide more guidance for clinical application of cerebrolysin in the treatment of pediatric diseases.
