This census-based cohort study in Switzerland examined modeled RF-EMF exposure from broadcast transmitters and childhood cancer risk using two cohort approaches. Across analyses, no association was reported for all cancers or childhood leukemia. Findings for CNS tumors were inconsistent, and the incidence density…

The paper describes the development of RF-shielded hats using a microwave absorbing sheet intended to reduce EMF exposure to a cameraman’s head. Three hat designs are described, and measurements are planned/performed in an anechoic chamber using a wireless video camera operating around 1.9–2.7 GHz, including a 2.45…

This workplace measurement study assessed intermediate frequency (IF) and extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field exposure among cashiers working near electronic article surveillance (EAS) systems in Finnish stores. Typical seated exposures were reported as well below limits, but short-term exceedances of ICNIRP…

This prospective Dutch cohort (120,852 participants; 17.3 years follow-up) examined occupational ELF magnetic field exposure and incidence of several cancers. No associations were reported for lung, breast, or brain cancer across multiple exposure metrics. In men, high occupational exposure was associated with…

This randomized controlled trial compared postoperative pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (I-ONE) versus control in 33 patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. The treated group reported significantly better pain, swelling, and functional scores at 1 month, with lower pain still present at 6 months. At 3…

This double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial evaluated pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy followed by a standardized shoulder strengthening exercise program in adults with shoulder impingement syndrome (N=56). The active PEMF group improved in pain and function from baseline across follow-ups, while…

This animal study evaluated whether daily pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) treatments improve delayed fracture healing in skeletally mature ovariectomized (OVX) rats. By 6 weeks, PEMF-treated rats showed improved hard callus elastic modulus and radiographic evidence of better callus bridging compared with sham…

This animal study exposed rats of different early-life ages to 950 MHz UHF electromagnetic radiation for 30 minutes per day (SAR 1.0–1.3 W/kg) across gestation and/or early postnatal periods. The authors report no evidence of oxidative stress by TBARS or protein carbonyls, but report changes in fatty acid…

This food science study assessed how UV irradiation, pulsed electric field, hot water dip, and ethanol vapour treatments affected mung bean sprout quality and storage life at room and low temperatures. The abstract reports minimal effects on sprout growth metrics, with ethanol suppressing length/weight, hot water dip…

This chart review describes four cases where stereotactic marking and excision were used to remove nonpalpable colorectal liver metastases during hepatic metastasectomy, guided by intraoperative ultrasound. Intraoperative ultrasound identified an additional lesion in one patient, and all resections achieved negative…

This open case study assessed transcranially applied pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) as a potential therapy for multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) in three patients. Two of three patients reported considerable improvements in MCS-related symptoms/functional impairments and reduced capsaicin-induced secondary…

This engineering paper describes a fiber-based method for stable radio-frequency dissemination using a hybrid frequency modulation approach. Two RF components are transmitted simultaneously using a single laser diode, with one component used for phase fluctuation detection and the other providing a compensated stable…

This engineering/physical chemistry study develops an analytical model and uses computer simulations to describe the electric field in oxide films during thermal metal oxidation. It reports that the electrostatic potential drop across the bulk oxide is often limited to about kBT/e, suggesting most of a larger overall…

This laboratory study investigates various ionic liquids using an electrophoresis of a charged droplet method in a dielectric liquid under an applied electric field. While charged droplets typically bounce between electrodes, the authors report that some ionic liquids exhibit a retreating behavior. They interpret…
