Is It Time to Reconsider Chronic Electromagnetic Field Exposure as a Possible Risk Factor in Oral Cancer?

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2025

This review/technical note discusses whether chronic EMF exposure, mainly from mobile phones and wireless devices, should be reconsidered as a possible risk factor for oral cancer/OSCC. It highlights biological plausibility and reports from pilot cytogenetic and laboratory studies, plus limited epidemiological observations, suggesting increased micronucleus formation and altered stress responses in buccal mucosal cells among long-term users. The authors emphasize that a direct causal link to OSCC is not established and call for more comprehensive research.

The WHO-commissioned systematic reviews on health effects of radiofrequency radiation provide no assurance of safety

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2025

This paper evaluates and critiques 12 WHO-commissioned systematic reviews and meta-analyses on RF-EMF health effects across outcomes including cancer and reproductive endpoints. It argues that serious methodological flaws and limitations in the WHO reviews prevent them from providing assurance of safety for cell phones and other wireless devices. The authors highlight reported evidence in the animal cancer review (high certainty for heart schwannomas; moderate certainty for brain gliomas) and describe dose-related adverse effects on male fertility and reproductive outcomes, including at exposure levels below current ICNIRP thresholds.

Traceable Assessment of the Absorbed Power Density of Body Mounted Devices at Frequencies Above 10 GHz

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2025

This paper presents a traceable experimental dosimetry method to measure absorbed power density (APD) from body-mounted wireless devices at frequencies above 10 GHz. It combines a miniaturized broadband probe, a composite skin-equivalent phantom, and reconstruction/calibration procedures, with validation using reference antennas. The approach is reported as validated for 24–30 GHz and extendable to 10–45 GHz, supporting regulatory-type testing aligned with international safety standards.

Exploring the impact of environmental factors on male reproductive health through epigenetics

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2025

This narrative review discusses how environmental factors may affect male reproductive health through epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin remodeling, and non-coding RNA regulation. It reports that electromagnetic radiation, particularly from mobile phones and wireless devices, is linked in the reviewed literature to reduced sperm count and motility, increased oxidative stress, and chromatin damage. The authors conclude there is a substantive connection between EMF exposure and adverse male reproductive outcomes and suggest practical risk-reduction guidance.
