This study compared 60 healthy female medical students grouped by self-reported daily mobile phone use by the head (90 min). MRI/MRS analyses found no significant differences in hippocampal volume or in choline, creatine, and N-acetyl aspartate between groups. However, the higher-use group showed poorer performance…

This study assessed working memory before and after 5 minutes of mobile phone use using a brief computerized 10-word recall task. The experimental group showed worse performance immediately after phone use, with partial improvement 5 minutes later, while the control group improved across repeated tests without phone…

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 in vitro study evaluated adult murine neural stem cells exposed to GSM 900-MHz radiofrequency emissions from a mobile phone across different exposure durations. The authors report significant decreases in neurosphere number/size and neuronal differentiation with increasing exposure duration. They report no…

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 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 double-blind randomized controlled study enrolled 61 healthy teenagers and compared 15 minutes of mobile phone exposure with the phone ON at the right ear versus a phone OFF condition. The study reports significant reductions in EPI-measured "subtle energy levels" in the ON group versus OFF across multiple…

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…

This 2016 narrative review proposes that non-thermal microwave/lower-frequency EMFs act primarily through activation of voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), with calcium channel blockers reported to block EMF effects. It summarizes animal, occupational, and epidemiological literature and reports that exposures…

This cohort study followed 114 migraine patients and assessed self-reported use of mobile phones, Wi-Fi devices, and fixed-line telephones as RF-EMF sources. Over a 3-month period, migraine frequency and severity were reported as significantly correlated with higher mobile phone and Wi-Fi use, while fixed-line…

This cross-sectional study compared male students from two schools with different measured RF-EMFR levels inside the buildings, attributed to nearby mobile phone base stations (~200 m away). The higher-exposure school had a significantly higher mean HbA1c than the lower-exposure school. The authors also report a…

This prospective cohort study followed 439 adolescents for one year to assess whether wireless device use and estimated RF-EMF dose were associated with changes in memory performance. Higher cumulative mobile phone call duration and higher modeled RF-EMF brain and whole-body dose were associated with decreases in…

This cross-sectional study of men attending an infertility clinic assessed associations between self-reported mobile phone and wireless Internet use and semen parameters. Mobile phone usage period was not significantly associated with sperm count or morphology, while motility showed a borderline association. Higher…

This study examined whether electromagnetic waves from a mobile phone affect brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) in adult males aged 20–40 years. The right ear was exposed for about 10 minutes and BAEP measures were compared before and after exposure. The abstract reports significant changes in several BAEP…
