This in vitro study examined whether a 50-Hz, 0.50 mT intermittent electromagnetic field modifies responses to cisplatin and bleomycin in MCF-7 and SH-SY5Y cells. The authors report increased susceptibility in MCF-7 cells with EMF added to cisplatin+bleomycin, while SH-SY5Y susceptibility was unchanged. They also…

This correspondence discusses a prior ecological study examining a possible association between RF-EMF exposure in Albacete, Spain and cancer incidence. The cancers mentioned include lymphomas and brain tumors. The correspondence indicates that shortcomings of the ecological study are discussed, but does not detail…

This in vitro study exposed rat adipose-derived stem cells to a pulsed electromagnetic field (7 Hz, 30 mT) and assessed viability by flow cytometry. The authors report that a low-fat diet was protective in PEMF-exposed ADSCs, especially in pups. They also report a higher proportion of early apoptotic cells in…

This in vitro study tested whether an extremely low-frequency EMF (100 Hz, 100 G) could enhance temozolomide cytotoxicity in human glioma cell lines (U87 and T98G). The authors report that combined EMF and temozolomide increased apoptosis relative to either treatment alone and was accompanied by changes in…

This clinical study evaluated whether adding ELF-EMF exposure to a 4-week rehabilitation program affects antioxidant and clinical status in ischemic stroke patients. Fifty-seven patients were assigned to an ELF-EMF group or a non-ELF-EMF group, with the exposed group receiving 40 Hz, 7 mT for 15 minutes per day over…

This animal study tested four frequency-band EMF exposures (1–50,000 Hz variants) in an ovariectomized mouse model of osteoporosis over 8 weeks (3 h/day). Low- and band-pass exposures increased bone formation markers and osteogenesis-related gene expression, while high-pass exposure decreased both formation and…

This in vitro study examined rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exposed to zinc sulphate in the presence of an ELF electromagnetic field (50 Hz, 20 mT). The authors report increased osteogenic differentiation markers (gene expression, ALP activity, and calcium levels) under combined ZnSO4+EMF conditions,…

This study develops a quantum-mechanical radical pair mechanism model to examine how an extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) might influence early chemical hepatocarcinogenesis in rats. The model evaluates singlet-state recombination and quantum yield under a low magnetic field effect, proposing…

This animal study evaluated whether 50 Hz EMF exposure enhances wound healing after transplantation of human epidermal stem cells (ESC) seeded in collagen sponge scaffolds. Thirty-six nude mice with full-thickness wounds were assigned to control, ESC-only, or ESC+EMF groups (50 Hz, 5 mT, 60 min/day for 20 days). The…

This case report describes a paediatric burn injury resulting from a mobile phone lithium-ion battery explosion. The patient was treated with selective enzymatic debridement, which the authors note is simple, minimally invasive, and safe. The report concerns an acute thermal injury mechanism rather than EMF exposure.

This conference paper reports an engineering approach to convert wireless microwave power into near-infrared light using a miniaturized, wirelessly powered laser. The device is described as millimeter-scale and capable of being powered through >1 cm of tissue. The abstract focuses on enabling in vivo activation of…

This in vitro study exposed rat calvarial osteoblasts to 50 Hz, 0.6 mT pulsed electromagnetic fields for 1.5 hours and measured early differentiation-related markers over 0–12 hours. The abstract reports increased ALP activity at 3 hours and time-dependent changes in ALP, Runx2, and OSX transcription and Runx2/OSX…
