Introduction: Transcranial near-infrared photobiomodulation (NIR-PBM) is a new noninvasive procedure which transcranially applies wavelength to the scalp with laser or light-emitting diode (LED) source. Improvement in neurological psychological symptoms has been reported following light irradiation. However, our knowledge, there no study investigate effects of transcranial NIR-PBM on motor performance directly. Therefore, objective this was short-term healthy human subjects. Methods: In experimental single-blind randomized clinical trial study, 56 right-handed participants, whose ages ranged from 18 30, were randomly assigned (1) Real NIR-PBMC3 group (n=14), (2) Sham (3) NIR-PBMC4 and (4) (n=14). We applied 808 nm irradiation energy density 60 J/cm2 power 200 mw/cm2 C3 C4 points scalp. The number finger taps as an indicator assessed by finger-tapping test (FTT) before after corresponding for 5 minutes. Results: results showed that both right left hands use real significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusion: concluded using source point cortex people can increase improvement.

Abstract Objective . Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) is a recently proposed non-invasive brain stimulation approach with various effects on the nervous system from cells to whole networks. Specially in neural network level, tPBM can alter topology and synchronizability of functional However, properties networks after are still poorly clarified. Approach Here, we employed electroencephalography different methods (conventional spectral) graph theory analysis track significant resting state The non-parametric statistical showed that just one short-term session over right medial frontal pole significantly change both topological (i.e. clustering coefficient, global efficiency, local eigenvector centrality) dynamical energy, largest eigenvalue, entropy) features Main results revealed reduce processing, centrality, laterality. Furthermore, increased centrality central electrode was observed. Significance These suggested facilitate information processing. On other hand, reduced stability complexity be considered association connectivity patterns among regions enhanced propagation Overall, suggest although decreases processing (especially hemisphere) disrupts network, but it increase level transferring network.

Transcranial Photobiomodulation (tPBM) has demonstrated its ability to alter electrophysiological activity in the human brain. However, it is unclear how tPBM modulates brain electroencephalogram (EEG) networks and related cognition. In this study, we recorded 64-channel EEG from 44 healthy humans before, during, after 8-min, right-forehead, 1,064-nm or sham stimulation with an irradiance of 257 mW/cm 2 . data processing, a novel methodology by combining group singular value decomposition (gSVD) exact low-resolution electromagnetic tomography (eLORETA) was implemented performed on noise-free time series. The gSVD+eLORETA algorithm produced 11 gSVD-derived principal components (PCs) projected 2D sensor 3D source domain/space. These PCs took more than 70% weight entire signals were justified as networks. Finally, baseline-normalized power changes each network frequency band (delta, theta, alpha, beta gamma) quantified during first 4-min, second post tPBM/sham periods, followed comparisons frequency-specific between conditions. Our results showed that tPBM-induced increases alpha powers occurred at default mode network, executive control frontal parietal lateral visual network. Moreover, decompose into individual, independent facilitated better visualize significant decreases gamma tPBM. Many similarities found cortical locations SVD-revealed fMRI-identified resting-state This consistency may shed light mechanistic associations tPBM-modulated improved cognition outcomes.

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) relies on (NIR) light for changes in tissue oxygenation. For decades, this technique has been used neuroscience to measure cortical activity. However, recent research suggests that NIR directed neural populations can modulate their activity through "photobiomodulation" (PBM). Yet, fNIRS is being exclusively as a measurement tool. By adopting cognitive tests sensitive prefrontal functioning, we show 'classical' device, placed correspondence of the cortices healthy participants, induces faster RTs and better accuracy some indexes considered. A well-matched control group, wearing same but inactive did not any improvement. Hence, our findings indicate 'standard' use devices generates PBM impacting cognition. The neuromodulatory power intrinsic so far completely overlooked, future studies will need take into account.

ABSTRACT Background Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) enhances cognitive and emotional states. We compared continuous‐wave (CW) pulsed‐wave (PW) tPBM effects on 24 healthy males. Method Participants received 630 nm at 95 mW/cm 2 for 10 min: Sham, CW, or PW (500 Hz). Outcomes were assessed using the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) (for measuring sleepiness), State‐Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) assessing anxiety), Visual Analog (VAS) stress), Beck Depression Inventory‐II (BDI‐II) evaluating depressive symptoms), 32‐channel EEG baseline, treatment, rest phases. Results Paired t ‐tests showed significantly improved sleepiness, anxiety, stress, depression scores post‐intervention ( p < 0.05). ANOVA analyses indicated increased Alpha Gamma band power versus baseline Conclusion may improve outcomes modulate brain activity, offering therapeutic insights.

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) face several challenges due to deficits in social function and communication along restricted patterns of behaviors. Often, they also have difficult-to-manage disruptive At the moment, there are no pharmacological treatments for ASD core features. Recently, has been a growing interest non-pharmacological interventions ASD, such as neuromodulation. In this retrospective study, data reported analyzed from 21 patients (13 males, 8 females) an average age 9.1 (range 5−15), who received six months transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) at home using two protocols (alpha gamma), which, respectively, modulates alpha gamma bands. They were evaluated baseline, after three treatment Childhood Rating Scale (CARS), Home Situation Questionnaire-ASD (HSQ-ASD), Parenting Stress Index (APSI), Montefiore Einstein Rigidity Scale−Revised (MERS−R), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality (PSQI) SDAG, evaluate attention. Findings show that tPBM was associated reduction severity, shown by decrease CARS scores during intervention (p < 0.001). A relevant noncompliant behavior parental stress found. Moreover, behavioral cognitive rigidity well improvement attentional functions sleep quality. Limitations discussed future directions research.
