Exposure to 1.1 GHz, 2.22 mW microwaves caused a reversible decrease in lens optical quality and was accompanied by irreversible morphological and biochemical damage to the lens epithelial cell layer. The reported effects differed from those produced by condu…
Compared with controls, chronically exposed male rats showed behavioral changes including hyperactivity/aggression (noted on days 16 and 21) and significant changes in Open-Field and Elevated Plus-Maze measures at multiple time points. Hormonal changes includ…
Compared with control, MDA levels increased with higher microwave radiation intensity (reported as 1.4× at 20 mW/cm2 and 3.5× at 30 mW/cm2; P<0.05). SOD activity decreased with increasing intensity (reported as 68.2%, 46.2%, and 36.0% of control at 10, 20, an…

Anaesthetized mice cortical regions were exposed to mobile phone EMFs (935.2–960.2 MHz; 41.8 mW/cm^2). The study reported increases in the amplitude of evoked spindles by about 87% (mobile phone), 17% (2% KCl), and 226% (mobile phone & 2% KCl) compared with c…
Rats exposed to regular cell phones for 6 h/day over 18 weeks showed statistically significant up-regulation of mRNA levels for Calcium ATPase, Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule, Neural Growth Factor, and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in brain tissue.
After exposure to HPM radiation (10, 30, 100 mW/cm2 for 5 minutes), rats showed testicular interstitial edema and vascular congestion/hyperemia with plasma proteins and red blood cells observed in the inner compartment of seminiferous tubules. Pathological ch…

Saliva mercury concentrations increased significantly after MRI exposure (0.23 T, 30 minutes). Urinary mercury concentrations were significantly higher in students using mobile phones after dental amalgam restoration compared to controls. Both MRI and mobile …
Chronic exposure to mobile phone microwave radiation increased oxidative stress markers (MDA, carbonyl groups, XO activity) and decreased CAT activity in rat brain. Melatonin treatment significantly prevented the increase in MDA and XO activity after 40 days …
Continuous whole-body exposure for 30 days to either a gradient static magnetic field or a uniform 50 Hz ELF-EMF was associated with gradual body weight loss and significant changes in multiple serum and liver biochemical parameters, including decreased serum…
After 10 minutes of maternal exposure to EMF emitted by mobile phones (telephone-dialing mode), fetal and neonatal heart rate increased and stroke volume and cardiac output decreased; changes were reported as statistically significant. The reported changes we…
Sham-exposed morphine-treated rats had significantly lower dorsal hippocampal D2R density on withdrawal days 1 and 3 versus saline controls. Rats exposed to ELF-EMF (20 Hz, 14 mT) during morphine treatment showed significantly lower D2R density on withdrawal …
Offspring prenatally exposed to a 900 MHz EMF (60 min/day during gestation) had a decreased number of granule cells in the dentate gyrus at 4 weeks of age compared with controls (P<0.01). The authors suggest this may reflect inhibited granule cell neurogenesi…
The article discusses potential harmful health effects of non-ionizing magnetic/electromagnetic fields across 0–300 GHz and proposes national-level protection norms based on WHO and ICNIRP frameworks (including the WHO International EMF Project).

Fifteen rats exposed to 50 Hz EMF for 2 months showed reported microstructural/ultrastructural abnormalities in seminal vesicles, including epithelial and basal cell destruction (heterochromatin and dense nuclei), stromal cell debris/abnormal areas, epithelia…
In offspring, the combination of EMF exposure (60 Hz; 3 microT; 2 h/day during pregnancy) and a deficient diet (Regional Basic Diet) was associated with delays in all assessed somatic maturation indexes. EMF exposure was associated with delays in auricle open…
Simulations of low-pass and high-pass birdcage coils with a pregnant woman model across MRI field strengths (0.3, 1, 1.5, 2, 3 and 4 T) found that local SAR in the mother’s trunk reaches exposure limits first. The authors report that meeting maternal exposure…
In a fully counter balanced, double blind, cross-over study of 72 healthy volunteers, a decrease in the EEG alpha frequency band was observed during 20 minutes of ELF exposure, limited to the exposed hemisphere.
Cetuximab-conjugated gold nanoparticles were rapidly internalized by EGFR-overexpressing Panc-1 and Difi cells, while naked or nonspecific IgG-conjugated nanoparticles showed minimal uptake. RF field exposure produced nearly 100% cytotoxicity in cells treated…
RKIP protein expression was significantly down-regulated at 6 h after radiation; it recovered by 1 d in the EMP group but remained down-regulated from ~1 to 7 d in both microwave groups. RKIP mRNA showed a wavelike pattern from 6 h to 7 d (down at 6 h, up at …

Radiofrequency ablation of atrial tissue for atrial fibrillation relapse prevention carries a risk of rare but frequently fatal atrial-oesophageal fistula formation. Early symptoms can include ischaemic disorders and gastrointestinal bleeding within two weeks…
