This engineering/simulation study proposes a bone-inclusive ASTM phantom to improve assessment of RF power deposition near orthopaedic implants during 1.5 T and 3 T MRI. Using numerical simulations across multiple implant families, the authors report better correlation of peak 1 g SAR near implants with anatomically…

This engineering study describes and simulates a helmet radio-frequency phased array applicator for Thermal Magnetic Resonance (ThermalMR), which combines MRI with targeted RF heating. Using EMF and temperature simulations in a phantom and human head model (including a modeled glioblastoma tumor volume), the authors…

This systematic review assessed interventional preclinical and clinical studies of adjunctive non-ionizing magnetic or combined EMF therapies in dental implant surgery. Twelve studies were included, with most reporting improvements in implant stability and indicators of osteogenesis/osseointegration. Evidence for…

This in vitro study tested a specific extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) on three human osteosarcoma cell lines grown in 2D and 3D spheroid models. The abstract reports that ELF-EMF exposure inhibited proliferation and altered mitochondrial metabolism in the cancer models. It also reports…

This study examined whether a flow-induced electromagnetic field in an electrolyte system affects bacterial adhesion to polycardanol-based surfaces modified with ferromagnetic iron oxide. IO-ionic solution-modified surfaces associated with induced currents (44–66 nA) showed reduced bacterial adhesion compared with…

This exposure assessment measured in situ smartphone uplink duty cycles for 4G LTE and 5G NR across six voice, video, and data use cases. Measurements were taken at ten positions near a 4G and 5G base-station site in Belgium. Reported duty cycles varied by application, with some use cases showing low-to-moderate duty…

This randomized placebo-controlled study evaluated sequenced, modulated extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields for drug-resistant chronic bacterial cystitis in 148 women. The treated group showed significant between-group differences at 4 weeks in multiple laboratory parameters, with reported sustained…

This in vitro study exposed three ccRCC cell lines and a healthy kidney cell line (HEK293) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 4.5 mT for 30 minutes daily over 5 days. The authors report exposure-associated changes in expression of several genes (names not fully visible in the abstract), with differences between primary…

This laboratory/engineering study examined how sulfide modification of nanoscale zero-valent iron interacts with an electromagnetic field to degrade decabromodiphenyl ether. The combined sulfidation+EMF condition reportedly increased the specific reaction rate constant by 7–10× versus nZVI alone. The abstract…

This randomized animal study evaluated whether recombinant murine EGF combined with ELF-EMF improves wound healing in rats. The combined ELF-EMF+rmEGF group showed better wound healing rates and more favorable histological features than comparison groups at multiple time points. All groups had complete wound closure…

This pilot animal study used a Yucatan miniswine model of traumatic brain injury with and without EMF stimulation to examine differential gene expression in injured versus non-injured cortex tissue. The authors report multiple differentially expressed genes linked to immune infiltration, myelination, oxidative stress…

This pilot animal study evaluated helmet-delivered EMF stimulation after controlled cortical impact traumatic brain injury in Yucatan miniswine. Three weeks after injury, EMF-treated animals reportedly showed preserved neuronal tissue morphology and reduced inflammatory markers across several measurement platforms.…

This in vitro study exposed B16-BL6 melanoma cells to a time-varying EMF modeled after intercellular calcium-wave firing patterns. The abstract reports a 50.3% reduction in viable cells after a single 40-minute exposure and microscopy findings consistent with apoptosis and nuclear fragmentation versus control. The…

This cohort analysis examined associations between two ultraviolet (UV) exposure measures (solarium use and residential shortwave radiation) and mortality in older UK Biobank participants. Both UV exposure measures were reported to be inversely associated with all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality, and…

This in vitro study characterized spinning oscillating magnetic field (sOMF) stimulation patterns that the authors report can induce cytotoxicity in two types of human glioma cells. The reported effect was linked to a critical rise in superoxide, and was reversed by the antioxidant Trolox, suggesting ROS involvement.…

This study evaluated 12 mT electromagnetic fields (100–400 Hz) applied during 30 minutes of cold storage (4 °C) of grass carp. EMF exposure was associated with increased CaATPase activity and frequency-dependent changes in protein and lipid oxidation. NMR results suggested altered water–protein interactions, and the…
