“Transcranial NIR Light Laser Mitigates Cognitive Impairments from Sleep Deprivation in an Age-Dependent Manner by Increasing BDNF and GLP-1 Production”

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38114728

The abstract reports that transcranial irradiation with Near Infra Red (NIR) light laser mitigates the negative effects of sleep deprivation on cognition in a age-dependent manner, potentially by increasing the production of neurotrophic factors BDNF and GLP-1.
