This animal study tested whether RF-EMF exposure modifies lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in male Wistar rats. IR increased histologic injury, inflammatory/apoptotic markers, oxidative stress indices, and Hif-1α/eNOS/BAX while decreasing BCL2. The IR + RF-EMF group reportedly improved across measured parameters, and…

This animal study examined whether prenatal mobile phone RF exposure affects brain injury markers and outcomes after neonatal hypoxia-ischemia in rats. The HI/Exposure group showed higher MMP-9 expression along with increased inflammatory and oxidative stress markers, larger infarct volume and edema, and worse…

This animal study evaluated whether ELF-EMF exposure affects recovery-related outcomes after cerebral ischemia in rats. Rats exposed to 50 Hz, 1 mT ELF-EMF for 2 hours daily over 28 days showed better Morris water maze performance than untreated rats. The study also reports increased hippocampal neurogenesis markers…

This in vitro study tested whether extremely low frequency/low frequency electromagnetic field (LF-EMF) exposure modifies ischemia-reperfusion injury in human cardiac-related cell types. Using LDH and MMP-2 activities and fluorescein diacetate staining, the authors report that short courses of LF-EMF reduced cellular…

Jan 1, 2013
This paper reports three cases of upper limb critical ischemia with chronic hand/finger defects treated using radiofrequency upper thoracic sympathectomy (thermolysis). The authors state that standard conservative treatments had failed and surgery was initially not indicated. They report the intervention was…
