Summary

This study tested whether laser acupuncture can improve middle ear function and reduce the return of fluid buildup (otitis media with effusion) in 32 children aged 2-10. Children received either real or fake laser acupuncture over two weeks, plus standard decongestants. The main goal was to see if the treatment helped normalize ear function and prevent recurrence within a month.
