Exposure to 5G-NR electromagnetic fields affects larval development of Aedes aegypti mosquito
A PubMed-listed study examined whether exposure to 5G New Radio (5G-NR) radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) at 3.6 GHz affects larval development in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Using a custom reverberation-chamber exposure setup and numerical simulations to estimate dose, the authors report slower development at a lower exposure level (46.2 V/m), particularly in nutritionally weakened larvae. At a higher exposure level (182.6 V/m), the study reports dielectric heating that altered development timing and adult size.
What non‑native EMFs really do — Ion Timing Fidelity under RF exposure, from S4 voltage sensing to mitochondrial ROS and immune dysregulation
This RF Safe article argues that “non-native” radiofrequency (RF) exposures can deterministically disrupt voltage-gated ion channel timing (via the S4 voltage sensor), leading downstream to altered calcium signaling, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), and immune dysregulation without tissue heating. It presents a proposed mechanistic chain linking RF exposure to oxidative stress, inflammation, and autoimmune-like states, and cites assorted animal studies and reviews as supportive. The piece is framed as a coherent explanatory model rather than a single new study, and specific cited findings are not fully verifiable from the excerpt alone.
Ion Timing Fidelity under wireless exposure — from the S4 voltage sensor to mitochondrial oxidative stress, innate activation, and organ‑level inflammation
This RF Safe article argues that pulsed, low-frequency-modulated wireless radiofrequency exposures could disrupt voltage-gated ion channel timing (via the S4 voltage sensor), leading to altered immune-cell signaling, mitochondrial oxidative stress, and downstream innate immune activation and inflammation. It presents a mechanistic narrative linking small membrane-potential shifts to changes in calcium and proton channel behavior, then to mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and inflammatory pathways (e.g., cGAS–STING, TLR9, NLRP3). The post cites animal findings and a described 2025 mouse gene-expression study as supportive, but the piece itself is not a peer-reviewed study and some claims are presented as deterministic without providing full methodological details in the excerpt.
The Effect of Proximity Sensor & Grip Sensor Use on Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in Smartphones
This engineering study examined how smartphone proximity and grip sensors affect SAR during LTE and 5G NR operation in a 3D measurement environment. The abstract reports that enabling these sensors reduces SAR relative to being turned off, with reductions varying by sensor and frequency. The authors attribute the reduction to sensor-driven power management and transmission power adjustment.
