Well fuck, we really need someone to write and distribute a protocol on this. All this previous research; OR ARE WE WAITING FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM?

Abstract
Photobiomodulation
(PBM) therapy is a promising therapeutic approach for several
pathologies, including stroke. The biological effects of PBM for the
treatment of cerebral ischemia have previously been explored as a
neuroprotective strategy using different light sources, wavelengths, and
incident light powers. However, the capability of PBM as a novel
alternative therapy to stimulate the recovery of the injured neuronal
tissue after ischemic stroke has been poorly explored. The aim of this
study was to investigate the low-level light irradiation therapy by
using Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) as potential therapeutic strategy for
stroke. The LED photobiomodulation (continuous wave, 830 nm, 0.2-0.6
J/cm2) was firstly evaluated at different energy densities in
C17.2 immortalized mouse neural progenitor cell lines, in order to
observe if this treatment had any effect on cells, in terms of
proliferation and viability. Then, the PBM-LED effect (continuous wave,
830 nm, 0.28 J/cm2 at brain cortex) on long-term recovery (12
weeks) was analyzed in ischemic animal model by means lesion reduction,
behavioral deficits, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
Analysis of cellular proliferation after PBM was significantly increased
(1 mW) in all different exposure times used; however, this effect could
not be replicated in vivo experimental conditions, as PBM did
not show an infarct reduction or functional recovery. Despite the
promising therapeutic effect described for PBM, further preclinical
studies are necessary to optimize the therapeutic window of this novel
therapy, in terms of the mechanism associated to neurorecovery and to
reduce the risk of failure in future clinical trials.
