This cohort study compared modeled residential RF-EMF, noise, and air pollution exposures with participants’ perceived exposure levels and self-reported symptoms. Correlations between modeled and perceived exposure were moderate for air pollution and noise but low for RF-EMF. Perceived exposure was consistently…

This in vitro study examined whether 50 Hz, 2 mT extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields affect ATRA-driven granulocytic differentiation in NB4 acute promyelocytic leukemia cells. The authors report reduced proliferation and enhanced maturation/differentiation markers with ELF-EMF exposure. They also report…

This laboratory study tested whether brief ELF-EMF seed pretreatment could enhance cadmium accumulation in white mustard seedlings. Seeds exposed to 50 Hz alternating EMF (60 or 120 mT) for 1 minute produced shoots with higher cadmium content than controls, while biomass was unchanged. The authors suggest potential…

This in vitro study exposed cancer (U87-MG; 143B) and noncancerous (BJ; HEK) cells to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields under varying frequencies (2–60 Hz), waveforms, and exposure durations, with sham controls. Cell viability was assessed using an MTT assay. The authors report that cancer and…

This in vitro study used a scratch wound model in human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT) to examine effects of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF). ELF-EMF exposure was reported to accelerate wound closure compared with sham and to increase inflammatory cytokine expression/release. The authors…

This in vitro study exposed human keratinocyte cells (NCTC 2544) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 0.25–2 G and assessed oxidative stress-related endpoints. Significant increases in ROS were reported at 0.5 and 1 G, with associated short-term changes in antioxidant and lipid peroxidation markers. The authors report that…

This paper describes an on-line ELF magnetic stimulation setup and evaluates coil field distribution using COMSOL simulations alongside physical measurements. The authors report that modeled and measured magnetic flux densities were similar, and that stimulation induced sodium channel currents and fEPSPs in rat…

This clinical study evaluated whether adding ELF-EMF exposure to a 4-week rehabilitation program affects antioxidant and clinical status in ischemic stroke patients. Fifty-seven patients were assigned to an ELF-EMF group or a non-ELF-EMF group, with the exposed group receiving 40 Hz, 7 mT for 15 minutes per day over…

This in vitro study examined rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exposed to zinc sulphate in the presence of an ELF electromagnetic field (50 Hz, 20 mT). The authors report increased osteogenic differentiation markers (gene expression, ALP activity, and calcium levels) under combined ZnSO4+EMF conditions,…

This study develops a quantum-mechanical radical pair mechanism model to examine how an extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) might influence early chemical hepatocarcinogenesis in rats. The model evaluates singlet-state recombination and quantum yield under a low magnetic field effect, proposing…

This review-style article discusses gerontechnologies—mobile applications on smartphones/tablets and remote monitoring systems—for outpatient symptom monitoring and self-care management in older adults with heart failure. It frames these tools as potentially cost-effective and accessible when designed for older…

This engineering paper demonstrates an auto-tuning method for a high-sensitivity RF interferometer using a tunable liquid attenuator controlled by liquid volume. The authors report an effective quality factor up to 1×10 at ~5 GHz and a self-calibration/measurement process from 2 to 7.5 GHz using a methanol-water…
