Blake Levitt, Cellular and molecular effects of non-ionizing  electromagnetic fields, Environ Health 2024; 39(3): 519–529 { https://doi.org/10.1515/reveh-2023-0023 } .\nThis paper integrates much knowledge gained over several decades in bio-electromagnetic research and points to a likely unifying mechanism which explains both the many adverse and beneficial effects seen with exposure to man-made EMFs. Dr. Lai paper cites many other studies over +44 years\nMost of the RFI responses (below) reference  Dr. Lai paper, which I  felt it necessary to submit this relevant RFI to HHS {HHS–OASH–2026–0397}.","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5042/attachment_1.pdf"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5042","tags":["sleep-cognition","exposure-places","policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"d92e509af605ac3701028801d93db278ec2bef8d9906dd9de4319586b991b58e","slug":"sleep-cognition-comment-5042","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5042","body_sha256":"cd51a2e629c9af8493c23fe401e18747cc483162294fc38c28678df13103f0e6","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"research","topics":[{"id":"research","evidence":"026-0397-0001\n This RFI response is based on peer-reviewed research and Engineering knwledge,\n\nExecutive Summary\nIt’s  well known, t"},{"id":"mechanisms","evidence":"hed a paper: Henry Lai* and B.
