This pilot clinical trial evaluated a portable helmet system delivering electromagnetic field stimulation at gamma oscillation frequencies (70100 Hz) in patients with cognitive impairment. Sixteen patients were included, with ten receiving stimulation after protocol refinement. MMSE scores increased on average from…

This controlled plant study evaluated extremely low frequency (ELF) non-ionizing radiation treatments (TA and TB) on soybean morphophysiological parameters under varying nutrient solution strengths (50%, 75%, 100% Hoagland). The authors report that ELF significantly increased chlorophyll index, with TB producing the…

This study used panel data from South Korea's 2023 Smartphone Overdependence Survey to build and compare machine-learning models predicting smartphone overdependence among adults aged 60+. Among evaluated classifiers, XGBoost had the best reported predictive performance (accuracy 0.925). The most important predictors…

This case report describes a 21-year-old man presenting with four days of painful priapism who was subsequently diagnosed with sickle cell disease by laboratory testing and hemoglobin electrophoresis. Standard initial urologic interventions failed, requiring shunt surgery, and a recurrence resolved after red blood…

This cross-sectional analysis used 2021–2023 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data to describe intake levels and characteristics of artificially sweetened beverage (ASB) consumers. Among 320 adults who consumed ASBs, those with higher intake were younger, more often male, and had higher BMI.…

This prospective observational pharmacokinetic study in geriatric inpatients (≥75 years) assessed whether standard IV dosing of amoxicillin-clavulanate and piperacillin-tazobactam achieved a 100% fT>MIC target. Target attainment was lower for amoxicillin-clavulanate than for piperacillin-tazobactam in this cohort.…

This study functionally characterizes two rare intronic SPAST (SPG4) variants found in two independent families (Brazilian and Japanese). The authors report that both variants affect splicing and provide segregation and clinical descriptions of affected individuals. They also report co-segregation of symptoms…

This in vitro study tested whether 4.0 GHz microwave exposure affects survival of aerosolized bovine coronavirus in a waveguide system. Using TCID assays, the authors report no statistically significant reduction in virus survival compared with controls and no significant change in variability. The paper emphasizes…

This food science study compared freshly harvested, naturally aged, and RF-treated rice/paddy (Jhelum cultivar) to assess whether RF heating can simulate natural ageing. RF treatment reportedly induced ageing-like microstructural and functional changes similar to naturally aged rice. Reported outcomes included…

This PubMed-listed study models how RF electromagnetic waves interact with a simplified three-layer tissue structure (skin–fat–muscle) across common ISM bands (433, 915, 2450, 5800 MHz), varying polarization (TE/TM), incidence angle, and fat thickness. Using a custom MATLAB pipeline combining multilayer…

A PubMed-listed study examined whether exposure to 5G New Radio (5G-NR) radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) at 3.6 GHz affects larval development in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Using a custom reverberation-chamber exposure setup and numerical simulations to estimate dose, the authors report slower…

This peer-reviewed article proposes a Planetary Health Impact Assessment (PHIA) framework to evaluate not only direct health effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) but also potential indirect impacts on human health mediated through ecosystem disruption. Using mobile telecommunication RF-EMF as a…
