亮光疗法显示,对非季节性抑郁症的辅助治疗是有效的,比对照组的降压率高。 Bright light therapy shows effectiveness as adjunctive treatment for nonseasonal depressive disorders, with higher remission rates than control groups.

JAMA精神病学杂志发表的一份评论认为,亮光疗法是对非季节性抑郁症的有效辅助治疗。 A review published in JAMA Psychiatry finds that bright light therapy (BLT) is an effective adjunctive treatment for nonseasonal depressive disorders. 研究人员分析了对858名病人进行的11次试验,发现60.4%使用BLT的人的症状显著下降,而控制组的症状为38.6%。 Analyzing 11 trials with 858 patients, researchers observed that 60.4% of those using BLT experienced a significant reduction in symptoms, compared to 38.6% in control groups. 在BLT组中,恢复率也较高(40.7%对23.5%)。 Remission rates were also higher in the BLT group (40.7% vs. 23.5%). 与药物或心理治疗相比,该疗法具有成本效益,值得一提。 The therapy is noted for its cost-effectiveness compared to medications or psychotherapy.
