This cohort study followed 114 migraine patients and assessed self-reported use of mobile phones, Wi-Fi devices, and fixed-line telephones as RF-EMF sources. Over a 3-month period, migraine frequency and severity were reported as significantly correlated with higher mobile phone and Wi-Fi use, while fixed-line…

This long-term animal study exposed mice to a 50 Hz magnetic field (500 mG) prenatally and then through 15.5 months of life to assess tumor-related outcomes and fertility-related measures. Exposed mice had lower body weights and showed no increase in liver or lung tumor incidence. However, exposed female mice had a…

This animal study exposed 108 male Sprague-Dawley rats to 900 MHz EMF (1 mW/cm2) or sham for 14 or 28 days (3 h/day). The authors report that 28-day exposure was associated with impaired spatial memory, BBB permeability damage, and ultrastructural changes in hippocampus and cortex. They also report increased mkp-1…

This prospective cohort study followed 439 adolescents for one year to assess whether wireless device use and estimated RF-EMF dose were associated with changes in memory performance. Higher cumulative mobile phone call duration and higher modeled RF-EMF brain and whole-body dose were associated with decreases in…

This experimental animal study examined RF EMF effects on reproduction in CBA mice and on the morphofunctional status of their offspring under two exposure models. The authors report that repeated short-term RF EMF exposure (5 days, 10 minutes per day, 1.2 mW/cm2) affected pregnancy course, litter number, fertility,…

This in vitro study reports that hepatitis B and C virus DNA amplicons in water solutions produced a chemiluminescence-registered signal after exposure to low-frequency electromagnetic fields (3–30 Hz; 24–40 A/m). The strongest reported effect occurred at 9 Hz, alongside an observed change in the DNA hydration shell.…

This in vitro study exposed human blood platelet suspensions to 1 kHz electromagnetic fields at 150 or 220 V/m for 30 or 60 minutes. The authors report increased ROS and MDA (at 220 V/m, 30 min) and decreased antioxidant enzyme activities (SOD-1 and catalase), with the largest changes at 220 V/m for 60 minutes. They…

This in vitro study examined whether extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) affect growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli O157:H7. Bacterial cultures were exposed to sinusoidal homogeneous ELF-EMF at 2 or 4 mT, with frequencies of 20, 40, or 50 Hz, for 1–6 hours, and CFU were compared…

This in vitro study used voltage clamp recordings of single OmpF porin channels in an artificial bilayer to test effects of UHF EMF (910–990 MHz). The authors report frequency-dependent changes in channel gating, with increased gating frequency and voltage sensitivity and a maximum effect at 930 MHz. Conductance was…

This randomized animal experiment examined whether 60 Hz extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) exposure alters oxidative stress-related biomarkers in 75 Wistar rats. The authors report increased lipid peroxidation markers after both single and 14-day exposures, alongside changes in antioxidant-related…

The abstract describes a mechanism by which coherent electromagnetic fields may induce oscillations and periodic shifts in biomacromolecules without requiring radiation absorption. This effect is attributed to modulation of interaction potentials among atoms/groups involved in non-valence bonds. The authors state…

This in vitro study examined 50 Hz ELF-EMF effects on human T-type calcium channels expressed in HEK293 cells and on native T-type channels in primary cultured mouse cortical neurons. The authors report that ELF-EMF (0.2 mT) inhibited Cav3.1, Cav3.2, and Cav3.3 channel activity without changing Cav3.2 expression or…
