What the authors concluded
Irradiation of superpulsed LLLT on successive days five times per week for 14 weeks decreased morphological changes, skeletal muscle damage and inflammation in mdx mice. This indicates that LLLT has potential to decrease progression of Duchenne muscular dystrophy." Star: The parameters were well reported, and the article was well written. A photograph of LLLT treatment was included.
