This editorial introduces a special issue supporting the WHO assessment of health effects from RF-EMF exposure, based on nine protocols and twelve systematic reviews developed over four years by more than 80 experts. It summarizes that human evidence for major cancers was moderate-certainty for no or only small…

Jan 1, 2025
This review compares two epidemiologic studies of radio-frequency radiation (RFR) exposure among military personnel with overlapping patient groups. One study reported a statistically significant increase in cancer among exposed individuals, while the other did not, which the review attributes to a smaller sample…

This systematic review evaluated RF EMF exposure and cancer outcomes in experimental animals, including chronic cancer bioassays and tumor-promotion designs. Across 52 included studies, the authors report high certainty of evidence for increased malignant heart schwannomas and gliomas in male rats, and moderate…

Jan 1, 2025
This systematic review evaluated RF-EMF exposure and cancer outcomes in experimental animals, including 52 studies (20 chronic cancer bioassays), using narrative synthesis due to substantial heterogeneity. The review reports no or minimal evidence of RF-EMF-related cancer outcomes for many organ systems, but reports…

This correspondence discusses a prior ecological study examining a possible association between RF-EMF exposure in Albacete, Spain and cancer incidence. The cancers mentioned include lymphomas and brain tumors. The correspondence indicates that shortcomings of the ecological study are discussed, but does not detail…

This preliminary ecological study examined whether RF-EMF exposure in Albacete (Spain) correlated with incidence of lymphomas and brain tumors from January 2012 to May 2015. Personal RF-EMF exposure was measured across 14 frequency bands using an EME Spy 140 exposimeter and compared with tumor incidence by…
