The growing popularity of stem cell s have run into a few challenges, with one major one being a rapid decline of these cells, following transplantation. This study looked at using light therapy as a way to effectively handle this decline. They combined stem cell application with light therapy on a wound bed and observed the stimulatory effects caused by the addition of the light. This supports previous studies that demonstrates the ability of light therapy to help enhance stem cell therapy and the medical implications for this can be enormous <view study> Read Less

The purpose of this study was to investigate light therapy's effect on chronic kidney disease and for the researches believe that they were able to document, for the first time, that light therapy had a protective effect regarding renal interstitial fibrosis <view study>   Read Less

16 military subjects received a 'typical dose' of low pressure hyperbaric oxygen therapy (40 sessions at 1.5 ATA for 60 min HBOT within 30 days) for mild to moderate traumatic brain injuries. After treatment, they demonstrated significant improvement in impulsivity, mood, anxiety, quality of life scores, and more. Their SPECT brain scans showed remarkable overall improvement in blood flow These results were confirmed with brain imaging scans which showed  remarkable improvements in blood flow to these regions of the brain, following the course of treatments. <view study> Read Less

Many previous studies have shown that diabetic wounds can be positively affected with low level light therapy. In this study, it was shown that the type 1 collagen production was specifically increased as was overall wound healing <view study> Read Less
