Summary
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on the severity of oral mucositis (OM) and inflammatory mediators (pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, metalloproteinases and growth factors) levels in saliva and blood; furthermore, analyze the effect of LLLT in product modulation of oxidative stress and cell damage from the oral mucosa transplant patients.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria

Exclusion Criteria
- Patients who presented with oral oral ulceration or erosion, active oral, viral, bacterial, or fungal infections on admission, or active oral bleeding which was uncontrollable during laser therapy or had required oral tracheal intubation during hospitalization in the HSCT Unit.
