This randomized animal experiment examined whether 60 Hz extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) exposure alters oxidative stress-related biomarkers in 75 Wistar rats. The authors report increased lipid peroxidation markers after both single and 14-day exposures, alongside changes in antioxidant-related…

This animal study exposed 12-week-old male Swiss strain mice to non-thermal low-level 2.45-GHz microwave radiation for 2 hours per day over 30 days (SAR 0.018 W/kg). The abstract reports reduced sperm count and viability, testicular structural changes, lower 3β-HSD activity and plasma testosterone, and increased…

This animal study examined oxidative stress and antioxidant defenses in loach embryos exposed to GSM 900 MHz microwave radiation (SAR 1.1 W/kg) for 1–20 minutes during early embryogenesis. The authors report significant changes in lipid peroxidation products and altered antioxidant enzyme activities. They conclude…

This plant study examined effects of a 30 mT static magnetic field and cultivation in soil with high natural radioactivity on oxidative stress-related markers in Vicia faba. The abstract reports significant changes in catalase and MAPK gene expression in treated plants versus controls. Catalase activity and H2O2…

This in vitro study examined 50 Hz ELF-EMF effects on human T-type calcium channels expressed in HEK293 cells and on native T-type channels in primary cultured mouse cortical neurons. The authors report that ELF-EMF (0.2 mT) inhibited Cav3.1, Cav3.2, and Cav3.3 channel activity without changing Cav3.2 expression or…

This double-blind, randomized, crossover study examined whether 30 minutes of near-field LTE radiofrequency exposure near the right ear alters resting-state brain activity measured by fMRI. The authors report decreased ALFF in multiple temporal and frontal/paracentral regions after real exposure compared with sham,…

This randomized trial assessed short-term effects of electromagnetic fields from a mobile phone versus a Bluetooth headset on cochlear nerve activity during vestibular neurectomy in 12 patients. Bluetooth headset exposure showed no significant change in CNAP amplitude or latency. Direct mobile phone exposure was…

This animal study examined in vivo and in vitro effects of weak, low-frequency magnetic fields described as having resonance parameters for calcium ions. The authors report a considerable decrease in activity of calcium-dependent proteinases (calpains) in fish skeletal muscle and brain following exposure. The…

This study examined whether weak low-frequency magnetic fields affect Ca2+-dependent proteinases (calpains) in fish and invertebrates using in vivo and in vitro experiments. The authors report a significant decrease in calpain activity in animals exposed to a field tuned to Ca2+ parametric resonance, and substantial…

This in vitro study tested whether 900 MHz GSM mobile phone radiation affects ferritin measurements in human serum wells. Exposed wells (30 minutes, speech-mode phone) showed a statistically significant decrease in ferritin compared with unexposed controls. The authors propose RF exposure may influence…

This experimental study exposed Spirostomum ambiguum infusoria to 1 GHz radiofrequency fields at 5 and 50 μW/cm² and reports reduced motor activity. The effect was described as threshold-like, appearing after a certain exposure duration and not increasing with longer exposure. The authors report different 'safe'…

This volunteer study examined short-term non-thermal RF EMF exposure and reported changes in EEG spectra. The main reported effect was amplification of alpha-range energy, with the magnitude depending on baseline EEG typological features. The abstract also reports that combining RF EMF exposure with monotonous…

This in vitro study exposed human amnion (FL) cells to a 50-Hz sinusoidal magnetic field (0.4 mT) for 15 minutes and assessed epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) clustering. The authors report that magnetic field exposure induced EGFR clustering, and that this effect was blocked by imipramine, an acid…

This double-blind, counterbalanced cross-over study investigated whether extremely low frequency (DC to at least 40 kHz) fields emitted by GSM handsets affect resting EEG. In 72 healthy volunteers, the authors report a decrease in the alpha band during 20 minutes of ELF exposure in the exposed hemisphere only. They…

This paper reports observations in northern inhabitants relating geomagnetic conditions to circadian rhythm patterns in saliva total antioxidant capacity. It states that the amplitude of the circadian rhythm decreases during both increased geomagnetic activity and magnetic calm, with the most favorable rhythm display…
