This in vitro study evaluated combined effects of extremely low frequency EMF (50 Hz, 20 mT) and nitric oxide (NO) on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The authors report reduced viability and morphology changes with high NO in the presence of EMF, along with increased calcium ion entry. They also report…

This cross-sectional questionnaire study examined stress and mobile phone use in GSM network employees. Stress measures differed across groups defined by phone use duration and conversation length. Speaking on a mobile phone for more than 60 minutes/day was associated with a higher reported risk of headaches even…

This animal study exposed Eisenia fetida earthworms to 900 MHz electromagnetic fields at 10–120 V/m for 2 hours (with additional tests of longer exposure, modulation, and recovery). The authors report significant DNA modifications across exposure treatments and a decrease in probe hybridisation sites persisting after…

This in vitro study exposed B cells and Balb/c-3T3 cells to intermittent 50 Hz power-line ELF-EMF and assessed apoptosis. The authors report that preincubation with vitamin C or vitamin E reduced apoptosis compared with the exposed group. They conclude that vitamins C and E have protective effects, with stronger…

This animal study exposed Trichoplusia ni larvae to 60 Hz, 2.0 mT ELF-EMF for 24, 48, or 72 hours and assessed immune parameters and fertility. The abstract reports no effect on life cycle and fertility after 24 hours, but several immune-related measures changed after 48–72 hours, including reduced hemolymph protein…

This in vitro study assessed whether RF-EMF exposure from a GSM 900 MHz mobile phone simulator and a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi router alters bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics. The authors report significant changes in inhibition zone diameters and bacterial growth rate after exposure. They also describe an exposure window…

This in vitro study exposed human microvascular endothelial cells to high-power microwave radiation at multiple power densities for 6 minutes and assessed cellular injury and cytoskeletal outcomes. The authors report dose-dependent injury from microwave exposure, including increased LDH leakage and reduced viability…

This animal study examined prenatal exposure to 10 GHz microwave radiation starting at gestation day 0.25 or 11.25 until term. At 3 weeks of age, offspring from exposed pregnancies showed reduced brain and body weight and biochemical changes consistent with oxidative stress compared with sham controls. The authors…

This animal study examined whole-body exposure to 2.45 GHz microwave radiation for 2 h/day over 35 days in male Wistar rats. The authors report increased lipid peroxidation (LPO) in liver, brain, and spleen and histological changes across multiple organs compared with sham-exposed controls. They conclude the exposure…

This animal study examined combined exposure to microwave radiation and hypergravity in rats and assessed whether Rana sylvatica Le Conte oil had protective effects. The hypergravity plus microwave group showed reduced motor performance, reduced cholinergic enzyme activities, and reduced total antioxidant capacity,…

This case report describes a 40-year-old male with type 1 diabetes who reported repeated episodes of markedly elevated blood glucose associated with nearby microwave radiation from wireless technology, with decreases after exposure ended. In one episode, body temperature also increased, and both measures reportedly…

This in vitro study exposed human proximal renal tubular epithelial cells (HKC) to microwave irradiation for 24 hours and assessed cell injury, oxidative stress, and cell death. The authors report increased injury markers (LDH, NAG), increased oxidative stress (higher MDA, lower SOD), and more apoptosis/necrosis…

This exploratory survey study assessed the association between mobile phone radiation exposure and thyroid function among 83 undergraduate medical students in South India. The authors report a significant correlation between total radiation exposure and higher TSH levels, seen in students both with and without a…
