This animal study exposed rats to a 1800 MHz electromagnetic field for 12 weeks and assessed hormones, sperm quality, and behavior. The abstract reports increased corticosterone, decreased thyroid-stimulating hormone, reduced sperm motility/viability, and increased anxiety-like behavior in exposed rats. Some hormonal…

This study assessed electromagnetic field exposure near common strong EMF sources in medical and industrial workplaces to estimate standard safety distances (SSD) for workers using active implantable medical devices (AIMD). Using measurements near 127 devices, the longest SSDs were reported near dielectric sealers…

This occupational exposure assessment monitored surgeons during 11 surgeries using monopolar electro surgery units and measured electric and magnetic field strengths during cutting and coagulating modes. Electric fields near the cable at 10 cm were reported in the hundreds of V/m, while magnetic fields were
