JelikaLite Corp announced today positive results from a study funded by the NSF SBIR Phase I grant. This study demonstrated that tPBM is a potentially effective treatment modality for improving symptoms of autism in children. Open Label Study had 25 participants.
As a result of the treatment, children’s behavior and communication skills improved – as measured by CARS (Childhood Autism Rating Scale) and observations by an independent SLP. The EEG data revealed redistribution of brainwaves from slowest (delta) to fastest (gamma), suggesting that Near InfraRed light may modulate brain tissue. Additional studies are being planned to further elucidate this mechanism and other efficacious effects of the technology platform.
