This animal experiment assessed GSM-modulated 3.5 GHz RF exposure in male Wistar rats and reported hormonal, oxidative, and histological changes consistent with testicular impairment. RF exposure was associated with lower testosterone, LH, and FSH, higher oxidative stress (increased MDA and TOS), and degenerative testicular histology. Coenzyme Q10 supplementation partially mitigated several reported changes. The authors caution against generalizing these results to FR1 5G NR signals and call for further research.

This occupational study compared oxidative stress biomarkers across four groups: control, noise-only, ELF-EMF-only, and combined noise plus ELF-EMF exposure in power plant workers. The combined exposure group showed higher lipid peroxidation (MDA) and lower antioxidant-related measures (GSH and TAC) versus controls, while SOD activity was reduced in the noise-only and combined groups. The authors interpret these findings as evidence linking concurrent noise and ELF-EMF exposure with increased oxidative stress and call for further research and occupational safety guidance.
