Two uncontrolled variables of this kind would explain why studies in this field do not replicate. We recommend that location and shape be recorded as controlled variables in future research, and we offer to take part in a blinded trial whose design is a matter of agreement.\nThe full comment is attached as a PDF.\nBoštjan Rode, President, Society S33\ninfo@drustvo-s33.org","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6271/attachment_1.pdf"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6271","tags":["research-evidence"],"source_hash":"4d5ce03a18ab46ecb5566c68eca48c05ca66c890419bf94d0ee84263c38616d5","slug":"research-evidence-comment-6271","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6271","body_sha256":"f369e133fb89db090be0e3376f9c556b07c41158de9b3c61f3d31a73fa12fb66","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"research","topics":[{"id":"research","evidence":"ure research, and we offer to take part in a blinded trial whose design is a matter of agreement.\nThe full comment is attac"},{"id":"mechanisms","evidence":" device and the person are situated, and the shape of the device, the building and the objects around them, including power line "}],"summary":"Society S33 proposes that location and surrounding shapes affect biological responses, recommends controlling these variables in research, and offers participation in a blinded trial.","reviewed_at":"2026-10-28T23:54:32Z","review_method":"Full comment-text review with exact source evidence; attachments not reviewed","review_source_sha256":"5cccf8ea27b8d5caffbdd45ecfd4b96c8b6259bf7e27613f1f414ae247098e13","source_url":"https://rfsafe.net/hhs-comments/data/catalog.json","scope":"Original comment body; attachments excluded"},"forum_topics":["research","mechanisms"],"primary_topic":"research","forum_title":"Society S33 proposes that location and surrounding shapes affect biological responses, recommends control…"}
