Different light color temperatures in the morning on the effectiveness of rehabilitation training in patients with ischemic stroke: a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled clinical trial

This study demonstrated that cold light therapy significantly improves neurological function, sleep quality, physical health status, including better performance on the physical component of quality of life in post-stroke patients, while warm light shows moderate benefits in sleep. These results support the integration of light-based interventions as adjunctive strategies in post-stroke care. Trial registration The study was registered in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry as a clinical trial ID (ChiCTR2200057541), March 14, 2022.
