6 postsEffect of fat thickness on subcutaneous temperature field under monopolar radiofrequency
This PubMed-listed study models and experimentally validates how subcutaneous fat thickness affects temperature distribution during monopolar radiofrequency (RF) treatment used for skin tightening and tissue repair. Using finite element analysis (COMSOL) and in vitro pork tissue experiments, the authors report that thicker fat layers reduce achieved intratissue temperatures under the same RF settings. The paper concludes that RF energy parameters may need adjustment based on adipose thickness to reach desired effects while staying within stated epidermal safety limits.
U.S. policy on wireless technologies and public health protection: regulatory gaps and proposed reforms
This PubMed-listed paper argues that the U.S. regulatory framework for radiofrequency radiation (RFR) from wireless technologies is outdated, lacks adequate oversight and enforcement, and has not been meaningfully updated since 1996. It contends that FCC exposure limits focus on short-term, high-intensity effects and do not address long-term, low-intensity exposures, with insufficient safeguards for children, pregnancy, and other vulnerable groups. The authors also discuss alleged regulatory capture, gaps in monitoring and compliance, and propose reforms including independent research, updated safety limits, and stronger pre- and post-market surveillance.
Unmasking the Hidden Dangers of Your Phone’s Invisible Waves
RF Safe argues that radiofrequency (RF) emissions from phones and Wi‑Fi pose non-thermal biological risks and that current safety limits are outdated. The post cites animal studies (including NTP and Ramazzini) and references WHO and IARC positions while promoting a proposed mechanism framework (“S4‑Mito‑Spin”) and calling for regulatory and policy changes. It also includes advocacy claims about regulatory capture and promotes RF Safe products and exposure-reduction practices.
THE INVISIBLE APOCALYPSE: How Non Thermal EMF Is Silently Destroying Humanity
An RF Safe article argues that “non-thermal” RF/ELF electromagnetic fields from phones, Wi‑Fi, and 5G cause widespread biological harm and that regulators and industry have misled the public by focusing on heating-based safety limits. It claims 2025 is a “tipping point,” citing WHO-commissioned reviews, animal studies (e.g., NTP/Ramazzini), a “Frontiers review,” and ICBE-EMF statements as evidence of cancer and other health risks. The piece frames the issue as urgent and settled, calling for public action and policy change, but presents these conclusions in advocacy language without providing verifiable study details in the excerpt.
Radio Frequency Exposure in Military Contexts: A Narrative Review of Thermal Effects and Safety Considerations
This narrative review focuses on RF exposure in military contexts, emphasizing thermal effects as the established mechanism of harm and discussing safety limits set by bodies such as ICNIRP and IEEE. It reports that whole-body SAR limits (≤4 W/kg) generally prevent dangerous core temperature rises, but localized heating risks may persist for tissues like skin and eyes, especially when thermoregulation is impaired. The review highlights CEM43 as a potentially useful thermal-dose metric but notes complexity for transient exposures and calls for improved models and methods across relevant frequency bands.
Assessment of 5G RF-EMF Exposure during Large-Scale Public Events via Field Measurements
This exposure-assessment study conducted field measurements of 5G downlink RF-EMF during a large public festival in Valencia, Spain, and compared them with a baseline day. Measurements covered 700 MHz and 3500 MHz bands across three network operators and five locations, using 6-minute and 30-minute durations. The study reports higher event-related power density (up to eightfold at 3500 MHz) but states that all measured levels remained well below international safety limits.
