Altered development in rodent brain cells after 900 MHz radiofrequency exposure

This animal and in vitro study examined non-thermal 900 MHz RF-EMF exposure during prenatal and postnatal development at 0.08 and 0.4 W/kg SAR. The authors report changes consistent with altered neurodevelopment, including reduced BDNF, reduced in vivo cell proliferation, and disrupted synaptic balance in rat pup…

The effects of prenatal and postnatal exposure to electromagnetic field on rat ovarian tissue.

This animal study examined prenatal-to-postnatal exposure to a 50-Hz, 3-mT electromagnetic field and ovarian development in female rat offspring. At 42 days of age, the EMF group had higher FSH, lower estradiol, higher iNOS levels/expression, and histological signs of ovarian tissue damage compared with sham. The…

[State of the reproductive systemin in male rats of 1st generation obtained from irradiated parents and exposed to electromagnetic radiation (897 MHz) during embryogenesis and postnatal development].

This animal study examined prolonged 897 MHz electromagnetic radiation exposure (8 h/day) in first-generation male rats from irradiated parents, with exposure during embryogenesis and postnatal development. The abstract reports fewer births and a sex ratio shift toward more males. It also reports accelerated male…

Prenatal and Postnatal Cell Phone Exposures and Headaches in Children.

This cohort analysis from the Danish National Birth Cohort examined whether prenatal and/or postnatal cell phone exposure was associated with headaches in children at age seven. Using maternal questionnaire data for 52,680 children, the study reports higher odds of migraines and headache-related symptoms among…
