This animal study examined whole-body RF-EMF exposure (900 or 1800 MHz) for 2 hours/day over 90 days in growing male rats, compared with sham controls. Exposed rats showed greater weight and length increases and higher levels of several hormones and calcium. The study also reports changes in femoral growth plate…

This cross-sectional study compared male students from two schools with different measured RF-EMFR levels inside the buildings, attributed to nearby mobile phone base stations (~200 m away). The higher-exposure school had a significantly higher mean HbA1c than the lower-exposure school. The authors also report a…

This animal study exposed 108 male Sprague-Dawley rats to 900 MHz EMF (1 mW/cm2) or sham for 14 or 28 days (3 h/day). The authors report that 28-day exposure was associated with impaired spatial memory, BBB permeability damage, and ultrastructural changes in hippocampus and cortex. They also report increased mkp-1…

This animal study exposed male Swiss mice to 2.45 GHz continuous-wave microwave radiation for 2 hours/day over 15, 30, or 60 days. The authors report increased hippocampal oxidative/nitrosative stress and increased apoptosis in neuronal and nonneuronal hippocampal subfields. They also report duration-dependent…

This animal experimental study exposed male Wistar rats to 2.45 GHz Wi-Fi radiation for 1 or 7 hours per day over two months and compared them with unexposed controls. The abstract reports time-dependent decreases in sperm parameters alongside increased apoptotic markers (apoptosis-positive cells and caspase-3…

This animal study evaluated repeated 1800 MHz EMF exposure (5 × 15 minutes) on lipid peroxidation (MDA) in Wistar rats, including healthy animals and those with CFA-induced inflammation, with and without tramadol. The authors report slightly elevated MDA in blood, brain, and kidneys in EMF-exposed conditions,…

This in vitro/ex vivo study examined whether low-frequency electromagnetic field exposure affects human neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation. The authors report that LF EMF exposure enhanced NET formation and that this effect depended on the NADPH oxidase pathway and reactive oxygen species production. They…

This study examined whether electromagnetic waves from a mobile phone affect brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) in adult males aged 20–40 years. The right ear was exposed for about 10 minutes and BAEP measures were compared before and after exposure. The abstract reports significant changes in several BAEP…

This animal study examined low-intensity 900 MHz electromagnetic radiation (25 μW/cm2) and its effects on rat brain and blood serum enzymes linked to energy metabolism. The authors report that brain creatine kinase activity was the most radiosensitive among the enzymes measured and propose it as a marker of RF…

This experimental animal study examined RF EMF effects on reproduction in CBA mice and on the morphofunctional status of their offspring under two exposure models. The authors report that repeated short-term RF EMF exposure (5 days, 10 minutes per day, 1.2 mW/cm2) affected pregnancy course, litter number, fertility,…

This rat study examined whether 50-Hz extremely low-frequency electric fields at 12 or 18 kV/m for 2 or 4 weeks affect mismatch negativity (MMN) and markers of oxidative damage/apoptosis in brain tissue. MMN amplitude was reported to be significantly reduced only in the 18 kV/m, 4-week exposure group versus the…

This study measured leakage extremely low-frequency (ELF) magnetic fields around a transformer located on the bottom floor of a three-floor apartment building in Istanbul. The measurements were evaluated against international exposure standards, and the authors report exposures higher than the IARC threshold magnetic…
