Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Locomotor, transport and information functions in human body systems are carried out by active media in autowave regimes! Any living organism is a (micro-macro-mega) hierarchy of autowave subsystems-an ensemble of loosely coupled subsystems of a simpler structure. From the highest levels of the hierarchy, Autowave Codes-Signals arrive, which determine the transitions of subsystems from one autowave regime to another Autowave interaction (of Complex Coherent Action). Autowave interaction is a process associated with the evolution and interaction of spatial and wave structures in the active media of the organism.

Chaos in organism functioning tells about health. Periodicity - Autowave reverberator may presage a disease - Autism Spectrum Disorder; Chaotic nature of oscillations in active media of physiological systems is more optimal for their vital functions than periodic one. Firstly, systems that function in chaotic regimes, can re-arrange themselves faster and easier in case of change of environmental conditions, i.e. the so called adaptive control is more easily implemented in them. Secondly, "spreading" of oscillations strength along comparatively wide frequency band takes place in chaotic regime.

When an organism is young and healthy, physiological systems show the elements of chaotic behavior, i.e. irregularity and chaotic dynamics are the extremely important characteristics of health. Decrease in changeability and appearance of stable periodicity of Autowave reverberator are often connected with Autism.

The main purpose is to study brain plasticity (the changes that occur in the brain through Autowave reverberator) in children with autism. Research suggests that during development, the brains of children may change in response to their Autowave reverberator differently than the brains of typically developing individuals. Investigators want to understand why and how this difference may contribute to the symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In this study, the investigators will be examining the effects of non-invasive neuromodulation SQUED™ series 28.1 home-use for Treatment of Autowave reverberator of Autism.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Autowave Reverberator:

1. Proved that, a Autowave Reverberator appears a result of a rupture of Autowave front; initial conditions - Natal Trauma:

1.1 Proved that, such a rupture may occur, via collision of the Autowave front with a nonexcitable obstacle - brain injury or injury of vertebral;

1.2 Proved that, such a rupture may occur by loss of excitation in a certain region of the Active medium - cerebral anoxia;

1.3 Locomotor, Transport and Information functions in the physiological systems, and Communicative Efforts, Speech, Language and Related Cognitive Functions this is Autowave processes in Active media.
2. An important feature of reverberators is that these Autowave sources have the highest frequency. By generating pulses at a maximum frequency such sources force out self-pacemakers of any other types from the medium. As a result, the Active medium is filled with only Spiral Autowaves:

2.1 The basic parameters of a reverberator are the frequency of generated waves, the critical dimension and characteristics of the structure of the kernel, and the velocity of the kernel in space, at Drift of Spiral Autowaves and/or Annihilation of Spiral Autowaves, or Multiplication of Spiral Autowaves;

2.2 Commonly, there are two characteristic regions in a reverberator: a kernel having an excitation "tongue" entering it and Spiral Autowaves generated by the kernel - one spiral/two spirals/three spirals/four spirals; central filament of the Autowaves-branch rotates Left/Right;

2.3 The kernel can have the form of a circle or a ring, a so-called "anomalous" kernel. If the source drifts, the form of the kernel is involved and can hardly be determined unambiguously.
3. Proved that, the reverberator is not tied to any structure in the Active medium:

3.1 Proved that, due to this property, reverberators can Appear and Disappear in the different Endoderm/Mesoderm/Ectoderm of the Active media, and at different locations of the Active medium;

3.2 Proved that, due to this property, reverberators can Appear and Disappear in the Ectodermal Active media - Brain/spinal cord/hair/Skin; central filament of the endogenous Brain branch/exogenous Skin-branch;

3.3 Proved that, reverberators can Observe on the skin, Spiral Autowaves generated by the kernel - one spiral/two spirals/three spirals/four spirals; central filament of the Pileous-branch rotates Left/Right.
4. Proved, Center of Synergetics/Dr. Synergetic (the name of a new physician - Nonlinear Control of Autowaves chaos in Active media), Nonlinear Control of Autowaves reverberators:

4.1 Proved, Nonlinear Control of Autowaves reverberators: Hysteresis of Spiral Autowaves, Drift of Spiral Autowaves and Annihilation of Spiral Autowaves.
5. Treatment of Autowave Reverberator of Autism (this will be administered by Presence of Clinical protocol CRF-SQUED™):

5.1 Diagnostics of Autowave reverberators and Mathematical Modeling of Autowave reverberators in Active media + Algorithmic approach;

5.2 Computational Simulation of Autowave reverberator and Mathematical Modeling of treatment code (Trade Secret) + creation Active medium SQUED™ for a patient;

5.3 Recording for a patient of treatment code (Trade Secret) on the Image Converter/Sound Converter/Electromagnetic Converter + Autowave regime: Hysteresis of Spiral Autowaves; Drift of Spiral Autowaves; Annihilation of Autowave reverberator;

5.4 SQUED™ Treatment of Autowave reverberator of Autism (Novel type energy/Non-invasive) + Semiconducting Quantum Excitonic Device - artificial active medium, where the processes of self-organization lead to creation and converter of Autowaves energy.

Some autowaves have the properties of quasi-particles!
