Jan 1, 2025
This exposure assessment measured RF power density across different floors of a high-rise university building using a spectrum analyser and log-periodic antenna. Power density decreased from the ground to the third floor but peaked on the fourth (top) floor. The 900 MHz band showed the highest reported power density…
Impact of mobile phone-emitted non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation on parotid gland function: A comprehensive study
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This cross-sectional study of 104 university student volunteers assessed whether mobile phone-emitted non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation is associated with changes in parotid gland-related salivary measures. The authors report higher salivary flow rate and pH with longer mobile phone usage duration, along with…
AN EMPIRICAL STUDY: THE IMPACT OF THE NUMBER OF USERS ON ELECTRIC FIELD STRENGTH OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2018
This study used real-time measurements on a university campus to examine how the number of users relates to RF electric field strength from cellular systems and a Wi-Fi access point. The authors report empirical models that estimate E from user counts, with stated accuracies of 86% for cellular-related measurements…
Spatial electromagnetic field intensity modelling of global system for mobile communication base stations in the Istanbul Technical University Ayazaga campus area.

Jan 1, 2018
This study measured RF electric field intensities at 900 and 1800 MHz at 29 points on the Istanbul Technical University campus and produced spatial EMF intensity heat maps using GIS interpolation. Three interpolation methods were compared and the mapped measurements were evaluated against ICNIRP reference limits. All…
The Validity and Reliability of the Persian Version Test of Mobile Phone Dependency (TMD).

Jan 1, 2015
This cross-sectional study developed and validated a Persian version of the Test of Mobile Phone Dependency (TMD) in 350 Tehran university students. Factor analysis identified three factors and the scale showed high internal consistency and moderate test-retest reliability. The authors report a best cut-off point of…
The Role of Depression and Attachment Styles in Predicting Students' Addiction to Cell Phones.
Research

Jan 1, 2015
This descriptive correlational study examined whether depression and attachment styles predict cell phone addiction among university students in Iran. Using self-report measures in 100 students, regression analysis found depression and avoidant attachment style were the strongest predictors of cell phone…
The Impact of Using Cell Phones After Light-Out on Sleep Quality, Headache, Tiredness, and Distractibility Among Students of a University in North of Iran.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2015
This cross-sectional study surveyed 358 university students about cell phone use after lights-out and related symptoms. Sixty percent reported late-night phone use, which was associated with insomnia, and initially with low energy, tiredness, and headache. After controlling for stressful events, only the association…
Visualizing radiofrequency lesions using delayed-enhancement magnetic resonance imaging in patients with atrial fibrillation: A modification of the method used by the University of Utah group.

Jan 1, 2015
This feasibility study evaluated whether delayed-enhancement MRI (DE-MRI) using commercially available tools could visualize radiofrequency ablation lesions in Japanese patients with atrial fibrillation. Of 15 scans, 3 were uninterpretable due to low image quality, and lesions were visualized in 8 of the remaining 12…
The Relationship between Mental Health and Addiction to Mobile Phones among University Students of Shahrekord, Iran.
Research

Jan 1, 2014
This cross-sectional survey examined associations between mobile phone addiction-related behaviors and mental health symptoms among 296 university students in Shahrekord, Iran. Several mobile phone addiction behavior categories were reported to be significantly inversely correlated with mental health scores. The…
