About this trial
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of a combination of photo-biomodulation at acupuncture points, autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and umbilical cord-derived exosome therapy in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The study will compare these interventions against standard care to determine their impact on the severity of autism symptoms, as measured by the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) and other related markers.
