This study used numerical modeling with a human body model to evaluate how the placement of a single body-worn personal exposimeter affects RF electric-field measurements in the 98–2450 MHz range. Across 256 simulated exposure scenarios, the body substantially altered measured values compared with the unperturbed…

This exposure-assessment study compared modeled at-home RF-EMF from mobile phone base stations (NISMap) with 24-hour personal measurements in 93 Dutch participants. Correlations were low to moderate, with better agreement for time spent at home than for the full 24-hour period. While modeled estimates could rank…

This paper presents a near-field RF exposure assessment method comparing standard SAR estimation from E-field measurements in tissue-simulating liquid with a proposed approach based on incident H-field measurements. Experiments were conducted at 900, 1800, and 2450 MHz using dipole antennas and a flat phantom, with…

This animal study exposed developing Sprague Dawley rats to 2.14 GHz W-CDMA RF-EMF at a whole-body SAR of 0.2 W/kg for 9 weeks (20 h/day). No differences were reported in multiple T cell population measures across blood, spleen, and thymus. Some Th1/Th2-related genes were upregulated (notably in thymus), but serum…

This animal/model-organism study examined whether weak low-frequency magnetic fields tuned to a proposed parametric resonance for calcium ions affect Ca(2+)-dependent proteolysis. It reports time-dependent modulation of Ca(2+)-dependent proteinase activity in fish and whelk and states that a minimal exposure time for…

This study evaluated magnetostimulation and magnetoledtherapy for pain reduction after dental implant treatment in three groups of 10 patients each. Pain was recorded using a VAS scale, and analgesic use was also tracked. The abstract reports lower pain scores and reduced analgesic use in the magnetostimulation…

This pre/post study measured circulating microRNA profiles in 30 atrial fibrillation patients before and 3 months after radiofrequency ablation, comparing results with 10 healthy controls. The authors report that numerous miRNAs differed from controls at baseline and shifted after ablation, with several highlighted…

This animal experimental study examined combined exposure to potable mineral water and low-intensity ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic radiation (~1000 MHz;

This study enrolled 70 patients with primary hyperthyroidism and 74 healthy volunteers and assessed carotid artery structure and function using ultrasound RF data parameters before and after 131I therapy. Hyperthyroid patients showed worse carotid IMT and stiffness-related measures than controls at baseline. After…

This engineering study addresses inter-cell interference in LTE networks as a driver of packet loss between base stations and mobile stations. It examines Soft Frequency Reuse (SFR) and implements a new hybrid frequency reuse method with greater total system bandwidth than SFR while keeping per-cell bandwidth the…

This study evaluated whether fusing delayed enhancement MRI (DE-MRI) with magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) improves visualization of radiofrequency ablation lesions after pulmonary vein isolation. Eighteen atrial fibrillation ablation patients underwent both imaging approaches, and two observers scored lesion…

This feasibility study evaluated whether delayed-enhancement MRI (DE-MRI) using commercially available tools could visualize radiofrequency ablation lesions in Japanese patients with atrial fibrillation. Of 15 scans, 3 were uninterpretable due to low image quality, and lesions were visualized in 8 of the remaining 12…

This engineering/food science study measured dielectric constant (ε'), dielectric loss factor (ε″), and power penetration depth in beef and gravy preparations across 27–1,800 MHz and 20–130 °C. The dielectric properties generally decreased with increasing frequency, and penetration depth decreased with increasing…
