Clinical Trials of Three Non-Drug Treatments for Winter Depression (SAD)

Light and Ion Therapy for Seasonal Affective Disorder

We are offering non-pharmacologic therapy for alleviation of symptoms associated with depressed mood that recurs annually in fall or winter. The treatments are self-administered at home by the patient, with close clinical supervision. Our trials use specially designed devices that replenish two different environmental elements, naturally occurring light and negative ions in the air. Both factors may be reduced in winter, bringing on depression.

a Chronobiological Treatment Combining Evening Melatonin and Morning Light Therapy in Idiopathic Hypersomnia: a Prospective, Double Bind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled -Trial - HyperChrono

a Chronobiological Treatment Combining Evening Melatonin and Morning Light Therapy in Idiopathic Hypersomnia: a Prospective, Double Bind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled -Trial

Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) is a chronic disabling disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), prolonged nighttime sleep and sleep inertia. IH is a rare disorder, estimated around 0.05%, yet its true prevalence remains unknown. Disease onset occurs most often during young adulthood and is accompanied by severe social, professional and economic impairments, resulting in risk of accident and a loss in patient's quality of life. There are no ANSM (or FDA-) approved treatments for IH symptoms. IH shares common features with delayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD) which is a chronic circadian rhythm disorder which occurs as in IH during young adulthood. The combination of evening melatonin and morning bright light therapy is the most effective validated chronotherapy in DSWPD.Moreover, bright light therapy has direct effects and is known to increase daytime alertness and to improve mood. Melatonin is empirically used in routine clinical practice in patients with IH and French and European recommendations mention melatonin as a possible treatment of sleep inertia in IH. . Our goal is to bring a proof of concept of a safe therapeutic practice for IH combining exogenous melatonin and bright light therapy in

Sustained Effect of Red-light Therapy for Myopia Control: A 2-Year Post-Trial Follow-up Study

Retrospective,2-Year Post-Trial Follow-up Study of Sustained and Rebound Effect of Red-light Therapy for Myopia in Ningbo.

To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of red-light therapy for myopia control over 2 years, and the potential rebound effect after treatment cessation. The Chinese myopic children who originally completed the one-year randomised controlled trial in the previous study were enrolled. Children continued or started to daily usage of red-light therapy were defined as the RL group, while those who stopped using red-light therapy and switched to single-vision spectacles (SVS) as well as those who continued to keep single-vision spectacles in the second year were both regarded as the SVS group. Red-light therapy was provided by an at-home desktop light device emitting red-light of 650 nm and was administered for 3 min at a time, twice a day. Changes in axial length (AL) and cycloplegic spherical equivalence refraction (SER) are to be measured and compared as well as the adverse effects including the rebound effect. Red-light therapy has emerged as a novel myopia control treatment modality recently. A 12-month randomised controlled trial (RCT) conducted by our research team was thought to be earlier to evaluate the treatment of myopic children using red-light therapy. The trial demonstrated that PBM therapy was effective on myopia control, reducing axial elongation and spherical equivalence refraction (SER) progression 103% and 127% compared with single vision spectacle (SVS) over a 12-month period, respectively. The promising efficacy of red-light therapy has been further confirmed in other studies. In addition, satisfactory user acceptability and no unrecovered functional and structural damages were observed. Myopia generally progresses throughout childhood and hence a study duration of 1 year is not sufficient to widely adopt the red-light therapy as a treatment strategy for myopia control. The sustainability of treatment efficacy, rebound phenomenon upon cessation of treatment, and potential risks and adverse effects in myopic children with longer-term PBM therapy, remain to be fully elucidated. Thus, the aims of this post-trial follow-up study were to invite the participants to come back for a 24-month visit and to investigate the long-term efficacy and safety of continued red-light therapy as well as the potential rebound effect following red-light treatment cessation.

Effectiveness of Dual Light Electric Toothbrush vs. Manual Toothbrush in Orthodontic Patients Undergoing Oral Surgery

Effectiveness of Dual Light Therapy Electric Toothbrush vs.Manual Toothbrush on Periodontal Health of Orthodontic Patients Undergoing Oral Surgery

The study is a randomized clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of a dual light ultrasonic toothbrush on periodontal health in orthodontic patients undergoing surgery. Patients with cleft lip and palate undergo bone graft and orthognathic surgery. The study will compare the periodontal outcomes in patients who use these toothbrushes during the post-surgical period.

Effectiveness and Safety of Repeated Low-Level Red-Light Therapy on Myopia Control Among Children and Adolescents

Real-World Evidence: Effectiveness and Safety of Repeated Low-Level Red-Light Therapy on Myopia Control Among Children and Adolescents

Myopia has become one of the leading causes of visual impairment globally and brings a heavy burden on the society. Therefore, preventing and controlling the progression of myopia has become an urgent public health issue that needs to be addressed. The purpose of this study is to provide real-world evidence for identifying the incidence of myopia control (axial length growth rate ≤ 0.1mm/year) after 36-month RLRL therapy, and long-term safety of RLRL therapy in children and adolescents.

Comparison Between Two Treatments for Burning Mouth

Comparative Analysis of Low-Level Light Therapy and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation for Burning Mouth: a Randomized Clinical Trial

Introduction: The management of patients with chronic burning mouth is a challenge in clinical dentistry. Objective: To compare the effect of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in the treatment of burning mouth. Materials and Methods: Randomized clinical trial consisting of 25 patients with burning mouth who were treated by TENS (n=12) and by LLLT (n=13). Treatment was carried out weekly for 8 weeks. Two-way ANOVA was used to verify whether there was a significant difference between times T0 (baseline), T1 (after the 4th treatment session), T2 (after the 8th treatment session) and T3 (30 days after the end of treatment) in in relation to symptoms, analyzed using the Visual Analog Scale, unstimulated salivary flow, xerostomia and dysgeusia with TENS and LLLT interventions.
