This systematic review assessed interventional preclinical and clinical studies of adjunctive non-ionizing magnetic or combined EMF therapies in dental implant surgery. Twelve studies were included, with most reporting improvements in implant stability and indicators of osteogenesis/osseointegration. Evidence for…

This in vitro study tested a specific extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) on three human osteosarcoma cell lines grown in 2D and 3D spheroid models. The abstract reports that ELF-EMF exposure inhibited proliferation and altered mitochondrial metabolism in the cancer models. It also reports…

This exposure assessment measured in situ smartphone uplink duty cycles for 4G LTE and 5G NR across six voice, video, and data use cases. Measurements were taken at ten positions near a 4G and 5G base-station site in Belgium. Reported duty cycles varied by application, with some use cases showing low-to-moderate duty…

This randomized placebo-controlled study evaluated sequenced, modulated extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields for drug-resistant chronic bacterial cystitis in 148 women. The treated group showed significant between-group differences at 4 weeks in multiple laboratory parameters, with reported sustained…

This pilot animal study evaluated helmet-delivered EMF stimulation after controlled cortical impact traumatic brain injury in Yucatan miniswine. Three weeks after injury, EMF-treated animals reportedly showed preserved neuronal tissue morphology and reduced inflammatory markers across several measurement platforms.…

This in vitro study characterized spinning oscillating magnetic field (sOMF) stimulation patterns that the authors report can induce cytotoxicity in two types of human glioma cells. The reported effect was linked to a critical rise in superoxide, and was reversed by the antioxidant Trolox, suggesting ROS involvement.…

This laboratory/engineering study evaluated thermally enhanced desorption of m-xylene from soil using heat generated by zero-valent iron (ZVI) under low-frequency electromagnetic fields. The abstract reports rapid heating (to ~60°C in 20 minutes) and substantially lower residual m-xylene after 60 minutes versus soil…

This study evaluated 12 mT electromagnetic fields (100–400 Hz) applied during 30 minutes of cold storage (4 °C) of grass carp. EMF exposure was associated with increased CaATPase activity and frequency-dependent changes in protein and lipid oxidation. NMR results suggested altered water–protein interactions, and the…

This engineering study used electromagnetic field-assisted laser cladding to produce Norem02 iron-based cemented carbide coatings on 304 stainless steel and evaluated microstructure and mechanical-related properties. The abstract reports no change in phase composition but notable microstructural refinement and…

This observational study used induction sensors with a Mu-metal and copper mesh shielded helmet to measure cortically generated EMFs in patients with cranial neurological disease and compare patterns to previously obtained healthy control data. Fourteen patients (ages 14–81) were analyzed and compared with four…

This paper reviews literature from 1980–2023 on the role of electromagnetic fields as a therapy for traumatic brain injury and brain neuropathology. It reports that existing findings suggest electromagnetic therapy may be a promising non-invasive treatment approach. The authors emphasize that current evidence is…

This engineering/simulation study evaluates RF applicator array designs for Thermal Magnetic Resonance (ThermalMR), which combines MRI with RF hyperthermia for brain tumor theranostics. Using EMF and temperature simulations at 7.0 T, 9.4 T, and 10.5 T, hybrid loop+SGBT dipole arrays are reported to provide superior…

This study optimized cacao bean fermentation for the CCN 51 clone using native microbial species and applied magnetic fields, varying field density, exposure time, and inoculum concentration. It reports improved yield and bean quality versus a no-magnetic-field control at an optimized condition (5 mT, 22.5 min, 1.6%…

This paper reports a PubMed and Google Scholar-based review of EMF research related to brain pathology, with emphasis on ischemic and traumatic brain injury. It provides a critical overview of the state of the art and describes the authors’ experimental and ongoing studies. The authors conclude that EMF applications…

This study describes a magnetofection system using electromagnetic field (EMF) co-stimulation with iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) to deliver miR-21. The authors report increased transfection efficiency and promotion of osteogenesis and angiogenesis in BMSCs and HUVECs, with downstream application to…

This engineering study evaluated how different 7T parallel-transmit head coils and SAR supervision strategies affect nonselective pTx pulse design for a 3D-MPRAGE sequence. It reports that FOCUS pulses were more robust than universal pulses when applied across different coils, and that FOCUS inversion pulses…

This in vitro study developed magnetic electrospun nanofibers for bone regeneration and evaluated osteogenic and antibacterial properties. Functionalization with ATP and Mg increased mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic marker readouts compared with unmodified fibers. The authors report that…

This article reports a case of a woman with an extended, mature facial scar from sulfuric acid assault treated with a procedure combining vacuum and electromagnetic fields. Before and after treatment, aesthetic appearance, motor function, and several skin physical parameters were evaluated. The authors report…
