Action-Dependent Photobiomodulation on Health, Suboptimal Health, and Disease

摘要

The global photobiomodulation (PBM) on an organism was studied in terms of function-specific homeostasis (FSH) and scale-free functional network in this paper. A function can be classified into a normal function in its FSH and a dysfunctional function far from its FSH. An FSH-specific stress (FSS) disrupting an FSH can also be classified into a successful stress in its FSS-specific homeostasis (FSSH) and a chronic stress far from its FSSH. The internal functions of an organism can be divided into essential, special nonessential, and general nonessential functions. Health may be defined as a state of an organism in which all the essential and special nonessential functions are normal or their stresses are successful. Suboptimal health may be defined as a state of a disease-free organism in which only some special nonessential functions are dysfunctional in comparison with its healthy state. Disease may be defined as a state of an organism which is not in both health and suboptimal health. The global PBM of health, suboptimal health, or disease suggested that the PBM may depend on the organism action.
