This 18-year nationwide Swiss cohort study modelled long-term residential ELF magnetic field exposure from high-voltage power lines (50 Hz) and railway lines (16.7 Hz) and examined neurodegenerative disease mortality. High-voltage power line exposure was associated with higher mortality from Alzheimer's disease and…

A multicenter case-control study in Iran reported that self-reported prolonged mobile phone use was associated with higher odds of confirmed and suspected breast cancer status. The authors emphasize that the findings do not imply causation and note limitations including self-reported exposure and potential residual…

This magazine article discusses the rising incidence of thyroid cancer and raises the possibility of an association with increased smartphone use and related RF EMF exposure near the head and neck. It characterizes EMF exposure from personal electronics as a growing public health concern. The piece calls for more…

This review/technical note discusses whether chronic EMF exposure, mainly from mobile phones and wireless devices, should be reconsidered as a possible risk factor for oral cancer/OSCC. It highlights biological plausibility and reports from pilot cytogenetic and laboratory studies, plus limited epidemiological…

This two-sample Mendelian randomization study examined whether duration of mobile phone use is causally related to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage using large European GWAS datasets. The primary MR analysis reported that excessive duration of mobile phone use was associated with higher aSAH risk, and sensitivity…

This multicenter case-control study in Iran (n=226) examined associations between mobile phone use and breast cancer outcomes in women. Reporting more than 60 minutes/day of phone conversations was associated with higher odds of confirmed invasive breast cancer and of being classified as a suspected case versus

This review discusses epidemiological and mechanistic reports linking EMF exposure with oxidative stress and disease risk, and introduces an Electromagnetic Pathogenesis (EMP) conceptual model. The model proposes that non-ionizing EMFs increase mitochondrial electron leakage via electron tunneling, raising free…

This study assessed whether sleeping with versus without a mobile phone (two-week intervals) affects sleep in medical students, using smartwatch-based monitoring. It reports no statistically significant differences in sleep quality or time spent in wakefulness, REM, light, or deep sleep between conditions. The…

This cross-sectional questionnaire study surveyed 355 Polish physicians about EMF health effects and electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS). Physicians reported limited knowledge and low familiarity with WHO guidance for managing people who believe they are hypersensitive to EMF, though most were willing to learn…

This Mendelian randomization study assessed whether duration of mobile phone use is causally related to stroke outcomes using GWAS-derived SNP instruments. The inverse-variance weighted analysis reported a significant increased risk for large artery atherosclerosis (LAAS) with longer mobile phone use duration, while…

This case-control study in Mexico City (2017–2022) evaluated residential ELF-MF and device-use proxies for RF exposure in relation to childhood CNS tumor risk. Elevated residential ELF-MF (≥0.4 μT) was associated with approximately doubled odds of CNST, while cell phone use showed no association. Prolonged tablet…

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…
