The results of the OFT indicated that the total distance covered by the offspring of the various study groups did not differ significantly. This suggested that the mice did not differ in motor ability (Fig. 1A). However, frequency of entries into and duration of time spent in the center zone for the Radiation group of mice were lower compared with the Control and Sham-control mice (P < 0.05), suggesting an increase in the anxiety-related behavior of exposed mice (for both male and female mice) (Fig. 1B and C).\"","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6376","tags":["research-evidence"],"source_hash":"93b22c476a287882f7d27e1a39b897472b1df6f0039ceef33e538de0ec7964a7","slug":"research-evidence-comment-6376","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6376","body_sha256":"d5ad18746077600bf6727b443816e56964a565115840deaf81c8a430f7fb938e","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"research","topics":[{"id":"research","evidence":"/\n\n\"...The 9.417-GHz microwaves used in this experiment belong to X-band electromagnetic radiation, which is widely used"},{"id":"reproductive","evidence":"ar detection.\"\n\n\"RESULTS\nMicrowave radiation in utero increased the anxiety-related behavior of mice\n\nThe OFT and EPM "},{"id":"neurological","evidence":"S\nMicrowave radiation in utero increased the anxiety-related behavior of mice\n\nThe OFT and EPM were performed to evaluate the anxiety-"},{"id":"satellites","evidence":"ion, which is widely used in space research, satellite broadcasts, communication satellites, meteorology satellites, and especiall"}],"summary":"The commenter quotes mouse research examining prenatal microwave exposure and anxiety-related behavior, with reference to frequencies used in satellite broadcasts.","reviewed_at":"2026-10-28T23:54:32Z","review_method":"Full comment-text review with exact source evidence; attachments not reviewed","review_source_sha256":"51ae0ca5a1ecacef6d1f6016b1cb3ebaa1598b010eec68041fd67222e244c483","source_url":"https://rfsafe.net/hhs-comments/data/catalog.json","scope":"Original comment body; attachments excluded"},"forum_topics":["research","reproductive","neurological","satellites"],"primary_topic":"research","forum_title":"The commenter quotes mouse research examining prenatal microwave exposure and anxiety-related behavior, w…"}
