Highlights Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia worldwide, and there is still no cure capable of stopping its progression. Traditional amyloid-focused drug strategies have shown limited cognitive...
Highlights Well tolerated at multiple settings: Participants tolerated low, medium, and high tPBM settings well. Side effects similar to sham: Reported symptoms were comparable to the “placebo” session. No meaningful...
Highlights A randomized, sham-controlled pilot trial tested whether pulsed near-infrared transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) could support symptoms in children with autism ages 2–6. Children received twice-weekly sessions for 8 weeks (about...
Highlights Parkinson’s disease (PD) affects more than 10 million people worldwide, causing tremor, stiffness, slowed movement, balance problems, and cognitive decline. A proof of concept clinical study by Liebert et...
Highlights Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a major cause of vision loss in diabetes and is driven by retinal fluid leakage. Shen et al. (2020) explored whether photobiomodulation (PBM) —...
Highlights Dementia affects millions of people worldwide and is a leading cause of disability in older adults. The aim of the study was to investigate whether regular transcranial and intranasal...
Highlights Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of disability and affects thousands of people every year A recent case series by Rindner et al. (2022) explored an innovative...
Highlights Arthritis is a leading cause of long-term pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Many people look for non-drug, non-invasive options that can be used alongside standard care. Photobiomodulation (PBM) —...
Highlights Red and near-infrared PBM consistently influence mitochondrial ATP production. Cytochrome c oxidase and ATP synthase are key photobiological targets. ATP increases depend on wavelength, fluence, pulse structure, and tissue...
Highlights Green laser PBM (≈505–532 nm) has been widely studied, but mostly in ablative or photocoagulative contexts. Evidence for direct activation of mitochondrial ETC complexes by green light remains limited....
