This animal and in vitro study examined whether nanosecond pulsed electric fields (200-ns pulses) activate inflammasome signaling after electroporative damage. The authors report ASC aggregation, caspase-1 activation, and IL-1β release in murine macrophages, dendritic cells, and mouse skin in vivo. They also report…

This conference abstract reports a pilot matched case-control study examining whether carrying a cellphone below the waist is associated with early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC). The authors report higher EOCRC likelihood among those who carried phones below the waist, with the strongest association for ipsilateral…

This animal study exposed fertilized chick eggs to a nearby 1800 MHz mobile phone that was called repeatedly (50 minutes/day) and assessed embryos at days 10 and 15. The exposed group reportedly showed mitochondrial abnormalities in liver, brain, and heart tissues on electron microscopy, along with increased HSP70 in…

This policy brief focuses on how RF-EMF exposure should be quantified in health research, emphasizing the role of near-field sources and proposing cumulative dose (J/kg/day) as a health-relevant metric. It reports mean cumulative dose estimates of 0.29 J/kg/day for the whole body and 0.81 J/kg/day for the brain. The…

This animal study examined repeated pulsed-modulated RF exposure (1–4 GHz; total pulse power density 300 μW/cm2) in male and female Wistar rats and assessed behavior using the open field test. The abstract reports stress reactions and long-term memory impairment in some rats, with females described as more sensitive…

This animal experiment examined hematopoietic and immune-related indicators in mice after repeated exposure to low-intensity microwave radiation. Exposure involved monochromatic pulsed fields in the 2.27–2.78 GHz range with average power flux density of 60 μW/cm² and doses of 0.086–0.86 J/g. The authors report…

This letter critiques the WHO-sponsored systematic review by Karipidis et al. (2024) on RF-EMF exposure and cancer risk. The authors argue the review has serious methodological and interpretative flaws, including issues with study selection and data analysis. They contend that the review’s conclusion of "no clear…

This animal study examined whether continuous prenatal exposure to 2450 MHz radiofrequency radiation (simulating Wi‑Fi) affects thyroid tissue in rat offspring at 6 months. The exposed group showed significantly increased mononuclear cell infiltration and vascular congestion in thyroid histology. TUNEL-positive cell…

This case-control study (57 CAKUT cases, 57 controls) evaluated multiple risk factors for CAKUT, including mobile phone-related EMF exposure during pregnancy. Longer maternal daily call time and higher effective SAR (SAR × call time) were reported to be associated with increased CAKUT risk, while phone proximity when…

This in vitro study exposed adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells to a 50 Hz electromagnetic field (1.5 mT) for 24 and 48 hours and assessed cellular responses. After 24 hours, the authors report increased N6-methyladenosine RNA methylation, increased expression of multiple stem cell markers, and changes in p21 and…

This animal study exposed rats to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 1 mT or 7 mT for 1 hour/day over 7 days, repeated across three cycles, and assessed catecholamines, MHPG, β2-adrenergic receptor expression, and behavior. The authors report that ELF-EMF influences stress-response mechanisms involving the locus…

This single-arm 12-week pilot/feasibility study enrolled 25 relatively healthy adults to evaluate an in-home resonance-based EMF protection device (BluShield). The abstract reports high compliance and no adverse events, with modest improvements in self-reported health, several cognitive questionnaire domains, and…
