Which device and exposure?
Check spectrum, irradiance, dose, distance, exposed area and timing. Sharing a wavelength does not make devices equivalent. Separate general research from the model documentation.
What are the limitations?
Read funding and conflicts of interest; seek independent confirmation. Include null findings. A source should support the exact statement, without turning an experiment into a treatment recommendation.
What we cannot conclude
Small sample, acute exposure and ex vivo measurements. Abstract-based summary; not evidence about every application.
General PBM research. This page is neither a treatment protocol nor clinical validation of ARES.
How we select sources
We link identifiable scientific publications and report findings and limitations, including null results. This initial collection is not a systematic review. Studies of particular devices and protocols do not establish outcomes for ARES products.
