This article describes a mobile phone-based pilot study in egocentric networks of 12 gay men and their peers (44 participants total). Participants completed daily mobile assessments of HIV-transmission and general health behaviors, and phone log data were collected from gay men with Android phones. The paper focuses…

This study develops and tests a theoretical model of how HeLa cells aggregate when exposed to a uniform AC electric field. Model-derived aggregation times and predicted string-length growth rates matched numerical simulation, and experiments observed substantial clustering in the chamber. The work is framed as…

This case report describes a 24-year-old woman with a rare pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal septum. The tumor was identified on CT imaging, diagnosed by incisional biopsy, and removed endoscopically with histology confirming pleomorphic adenoma. The report focuses on clinical management rather than evaluating…

The paper reviews and analyzes mechanisms for resonance action of extremely weak alternating magnetic fields (40 nT) combined with weak static fields (40 μT), tuned to cyclotron frequencies. It references prior reports of narrow resonant peaks in electrical conductivity of aqueous solutions and biomedical effects in…

This single-institution cohort compared radiofrequency-assisted laparoscopic liver resection with open resection over 5 years (47 vs 87 patients). Laparoscopy was associated with lower blood loss and similar 5-year overall and disease-free survival compared with open surgery. The authors conclude the laparoscopic…

This prospective clinical study followed patients with lumbar radiculopathy from contained disc herniations treated with radiofrequency-assisted micro-tubular decompression and nucleotomy. Among those with 4-year follow-up, pain scores improved substantially and most respondents reported satisfaction with quality of…

This paper presents an engineering approach for real-time ECG signal processing on a mobile phone with remote transmission to a medical center. The method uses an IIR low-pass filter and Hilbert transform to support R-peak detection and arrhythmia alerting. Reported algorithm performance includes 96.97% sensitivity…

This engineering-focused paper reports the design principle and performance of a MALDI ion source ("MALDI-2") combining rarefied supersonic gas jets with weak electric fields and injection into gas-filled RF multipoles. The abstract reports rapid collisional cooling (

This study evaluated a fractional radiofrequency microneedle system for treating facial atrophic acne scars in Asian subjects over 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow-up after three monthly sessions. Of 26 completers, the most common self-reported improvement category at 6 months was 26–50% improvement, and scar volume…

This animal study examined whether pre-exposure to radiofrequency radiation (from a GSM mobile phone) alters survival after subsequent Escherichia coli infection. The abstract reports higher survival in the group receiving both RF pre-exposure and bacterial challenge than in the group receiving only the bacterial…

This paper presents a two-compartment computational model of CA3 pyramidal neurons to investigate how extracellular electric fields influence neuronal behavior via ephaptic transmission. The model is matched to subthreshold experimental responses at rest and used to analyze how DC and sinusoidal fields affect…

This retrospective study evaluated liver lesion conspicuity during real-time MR-guided radiofrequency applicator placement using spoiled GRE and balanced SSFP MRI sequences in a 1.5 T scanner. Lesion detectability categories and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were compared for hepatocellular carcinoma and liver…

This study reports implementation of a passive RFID system to passively track patient flow in a radiation therapy clinic using readers/antennae in linac vault areas. Across 4302 treatment fractions from 144 patients, the system achieved about 70% read reliability and enabled comparison of median in-vault treatment…

This prospective interventional study randomized 60 patients with inferior turbinate hypertrophy to bipolar radiofrequency-assisted versus microdebrider-assisted turbinoplasty (30 per group). Both groups showed significant postoperative symptom improvement through 6 months. Three recurrences were reported at 6 months…

This paper reports extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic flux density measurements from 47 GSM mobile phones, collected to support exposure classification in the MOBI-KIDS epidemiological study. At 25 mm, maximum resultant magnetic flux density at 217 Hz had a geometric mean of 221 nT, and inclusion of harmonics…

This paper reports routine EMOST (Electro-Magnetic-Own-Signal-Treatment) use with low-frequency, low-intensity electromagnetic fields in two children with chronic constipation and persistent diarrhea. The authors state these conditions were eliminated following treatment. The abstract briefly discusses possible…

This field experiment examined short-term (48-hour) exposure to RF EMF from a GSM 900 MHz mobile phone base station on reproductive endpoints in four invertebrate species. The study reports no significant effects of exposure metrics on fecundity or number of offspring, and notes that distance was not a suitable proxy…

This cross-sectional survey study (LEXNET project) examined how subjective exposure knowledge relates to risk perception (RP) for different RF EMF sources. Respondents were more concerned about base stations than other sources. Regression results suggested that most exposure-characteristic features (except distance)…

This conference paper examined whether LTE radiofrequency EMF exposure affects whole-brain EEG functional connectivity. Ten participants completed a crossover, double-blind real versus sham exposure protocol with 30 minutes of exposure per session while 32-channel EEG was recorded. Using synchronization likelihood,…
