Article Synopsis
- Oral mucositis negatively impacts the quality of life for hematologic cancer patients undergoing stem cell transplants, yet there's limited use of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in Japan for prevention.
- This study compared 21 patients treated with LLLT to a historical control group of 96 patients and found a significantly lower rate of severe mucositis (23.8% vs. 64.6%).
- Results suggest LLLT is effective in preventing severe oral mucositis in Japanese patients, highlighting the need for its wider clinical adoption in Japan.
