Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Cerebral blood flow and saliva volume will be measured before the study begins. Saliva will be collected using a salivator and resting saliva volume will be measured. Next, the subjects will wear near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and be irradiated with near-infrared radiation for 30 seconds to one minute at a time in eight blocks according to the irradiation manual. The subjects were irradiated with near-infrared light for 30 seconds to one minute at a time, according to the irradiation manual, in eight blocks. The rate of change in the signal at this time was measured by NIRS. As a control, we will measure the change in cerebral blood flow rate of the gingival massage in the same order and at the same time as the experimental group. | — |
