Jan 1, 2025
This paper is a commentary reviewing how Bradford Hill’s epidemiological criteria can be applied to multidisciplinary evidence on RF-EMF exposure and adverse health effects. It reports that systematic reviews and meta-analyses in this area often reach substantially different conclusions, and argues that key…

Jan 1, 2024
This systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis synthesizes human observational studies on radiofrequency EMF exposure and male fertility outcomes. It reports evidence of an association between RF exposure and poorer sperm parameters, including reduced quality, motility, and viability. The authors frame the…

This paper presents a protocol for a systematic review of human observational studies assessing long-term radiofrequency (100 kHz to 300 GHz) EMF exposure and cognitive outcomes. It plans to include cohort and case-control studies with at least 6 months follow-up and validated cognitive measures, and to evaluate…
Effect of mobile telephones on sperm quality: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Research

Jan 1, 2014
This 2014 systematic review and random-effects meta-analysis evaluated whether RF-EMR from mobile phones affects human sperm quality. Across 10 studies (1492 samples), exposure was associated with reduced sperm motility and reduced viability, while findings for sperm concentration were more equivocal. The abstract…
