This cross-sectional study compared 183 higher-exposed residents with 126 matched reference residents and assessed symptoms via questionnaire alongside in-home RF-EMF power density measurements from mobile phone base stations. Higher exposure (including proximity within 50 m and power densities of 5–8 mW/m2) was…

This cross-sectional observational study assessed sperm motility after one hour of in vitro exposure of semen samples to EMFs from different laboratory sources in an IVF setting. It reports a statistically significant reduction in progressive sperm motility after exposure to mobile phones and Wi-Fi repeaters, while…

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…

This preliminary cross-sectional study of 200 women working in healthcare and trade assessed associations between wireless-system EMF exposures and emotional disorders.

This exploratory survey study assessed the association between mobile phone radiation exposure and thyroid function among 83 undergraduate medical students in South India. The authors report a significant correlation between total radiation exposure and higher TSH levels, seen in students both with and without a…

This cross-sectional study compared male students from two schools with different measured RF-EMFR levels inside the buildings, attributed to nearby mobile phone base stations (~200 m away). The higher-exposure school had a significantly higher mean HbA1c than the lower-exposure school. The authors also report a…

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…

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…
