This study reports a measurement-based assessment of outdoor downlink RF-EMF exposure in a French city using drive testing, spot measurements, and a streetlamp-mounted sensor network. The authors report good agreement across methods and correlations between smoothed drive-test data, spot measurements, and base…

This online survey experiment tested whether risk-communication strategies affect public acceptance of 5G base stations amid health-related EMF concerns in China. Government and industry sources increased support more than civil society sources, and gain-framed messages increased acceptance more than loss-framed…

This study reports that glioblastoma-specific amplitude-modulated 27.12 MHz RF electromagnetic fields (delivered intrabuccally) inhibited proliferation in several glioblastoma cell lines exposed 3 hours/day at patient-matched levels. The authors propose a mechanism involving CACNA1H and modulation of the “Mitotic…

This in vitro study examined whether extremely low frequency EMF exposure alters responses of TNF-α-stimulated human microglial cells (HMC3). Cells exposed to 2.5 or 5 Hz EMF for 3 minutes showed increased survival under high TNF-α conditions and reduced migration compared with TNF-α treatment alone. EMF also…

This engineering study modeled and tested a distributed wearable RF EMF measurement approach intended to reduce body-proximity effects on personal exposure meter readings. Numerical simulations covered 24 far-field wireless exposure scenarios (100–3600 MHz), and physical tests with three probes were also performed.…

This prospective, open-label, uncontrolled monocentric study evaluated a device combining vacuum and electromagnetic fields for cellulite treatment in 35 women. Participants received 12 weekly sessions (~20–30 minutes each), with outcomes assessed 1 month after the final treatment. The abstract reports statistically…

This in vitro/in ovo study examined whether extremely low-frequency electromagnetic stimulation (ELF-EMS; 13.5 mT at 10 and 60 Hz) activates angiogenic processes under homeostatic conditions. In human microvascular endothelial cells, ELF-EMS increased proliferation, migration/transmigration, and tube formation, with…

This laboratory study examined whether extremely low frequency EMF exposure affects wheat seed germination and early seedling development. Seeds exposed to 10 Hz, 7.5 mT EMF (5 h over 3 days) reportedly germinated earlier and showed higher biomass than untreated controls. The abstract also reports increased total…

This engineering study evaluates electromagnetic field (EMF) treatment as a nonchemical method to control gypsum and silica scaling in reverse osmosis using synthetic brackish water and real RO concentrate. It reports EMF altered gypsum crystal morphology to form a more porous scale that was easier to remove with…

This prospective study enrolled 10 adults with atraumatic or traumatic brain injury who received tailored cranial EMF stimulation using a portable helmet with real-time EMF measurement and parameter adjustment. The abstract reports symptom resolution or remaining asymptomatic in 8 participants at varying stimulation…

This engineering study evaluates and calibrates an EMF area monitor for the 300 kHz–20 MHz frequency band using a multi-wire transverse electromagnetic (MWTEM) transmission line as a controlled electric-field source. The authors highlight that low-frequency electric-field measurements can be sensitive to boundary…

This small clinical study reports using cranial EMF stimulation with escalating voltage at a patient-specific frequency of interest in 10 adults with traumatic or atraumatic brain injury. The authors report improvements in EMF signal patterns at different voltages across patients and state these changes correlated…

This animal study evaluated electromagnetic field (EMF) stimulation as a treatment after sciatic nerve injury in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Rats received low-intensity (60–100 G; 6–10 mT) or high-intensity (140–200 G; 14–20 mT) EMF exposure for 2 hours/day over 4 weeks. The abstract reports improved motor/mobility…

This opinion piece discusses the global and India-specific burden of hypertension and frames a problem of mobile phone use by patients while waiting for care. It references standard blood pressure measurement guidance recommending refraining from talking for a few minutes before measurement, noting that this may…
