This paper presents a thermodynamic model intended to explain how extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) may interact with cells. The authors propose that ELF-EMFs directly interfere with the cellular membrane, producing biological responses linked to energy conversion and changes in flows across…

This engineering/simulation study proposes a bone-inclusive ASTM phantom to improve assessment of RF power deposition near orthopaedic implants during 1.5 T and 3 T MRI. Using numerical simulations across multiple implant families, the authors report better correlation of peak 1 g SAR near implants with anatomically…

This engineering study describes and simulates a helmet radio-frequency phased array applicator for Thermal Magnetic Resonance (ThermalMR), which combines MRI with targeted RF heating. Using EMF and temperature simulations in a phantom and human head model (including a modeled glioblastoma tumor volume), the authors…

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 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 in vitro study exposed three ccRCC cell lines and a healthy kidney cell line (HEK293) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 4.5 mT for 30 minutes daily over 5 days. The authors report exposure-associated changes in expression of several genes (names not fully visible in the abstract), with differences between primary…

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 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 in vitro study exposed dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells to 50 Hz pulsed electromagnetic fields at 0.5 or 1 mT for 20 or 40 minutes per day over seven days. Cell survival/proliferation was generally higher than control across exposure groups, except for the 40 minutes/day at 1 mT condition. DMP1 expression was…

This animal study used non-contact induction sensors and a shielded helmet to measure cortical EMF patterns in a Yucatan miniswine before and after traumatic brain injury induced by controlled cortical impact. The authors report that targeted low-frequency EMF stimulation initiated 20 minutes post-injury was…

This study conducted personal full-shift RF-EMF measurements in 333 workers across 46 occupations in Spain and France. Most 1-second measurements of electric and magnetic fields were below the device detection limit (≥1% of 1998 ICNIRP standards), though many workers had at least one detectable reading. A small…

This double-blinded crossover study tested an ELF-EMF mattress used immediately after high-intensity cycling and overnight in nine trained male athletes. The authors report no significant overall effects on performance and inflammation. However, between 60 minutes and 24 hours post-exercise, the active condition…

This in vitro study describes a microfluidic device integrated with a radiofrequency exposure system to enable on-chip monitoring of cellular responses under a 1.8 GHz field. Using human amniotic epithelial cells, the authors report field-intensity-associated increases in protrusions/filopodia, changes in…

This preprint describes an in vitro bioreactor-based system to test whether electromagnetic/electrical stimulation affects extracellular vesicles (EVs). Using proteomics and single-vesicle flow cytometry, the authors report that stimulation at physiological current amplitudes can modulate EV content in a…

This pilot swine study evaluated whether non-contact proprietary induction sensors in a Mu-metal/copper mesh helmet can measure endogenous neuronal EMF signals before and after controlled cortical impact traumatic brain injury. The authors report that swine EMF recordings were distinguishable from room noise and…
