This engineering/simulation study proposes a bone-inclusive ASTM phantom to improve assessment of RF power deposition near orthopaedic implants during 1.5 T and 3 T MRI. Using numerical simulations across multiple implant families, the authors report better correlation of peak 1 g SAR near implants with anatomically…

This systematic review assessed interventional preclinical and clinical studies of adjunctive non-ionizing magnetic or combined EMF therapies in dental implant surgery. Twelve studies were included, with most reporting improvements in implant stability and indicators of osteogenesis/osseointegration. Evidence for…

This study examined whether a flow-induced electromagnetic field in an electrolyte system affects bacterial adhesion to polycardanol-based surfaces modified with ferromagnetic iron oxide. IO-ionic solution-modified surfaces associated with induced currents (44–66 nA) showed reduced bacterial adhesion compared with…

This exposure assessment measured in situ smartphone uplink duty cycles for 4G LTE and 5G NR across six voice, video, and data use cases. Measurements were taken at ten positions near a 4G and 5G base-station site in Belgium. Reported duty cycles varied by application, with some use cases showing low-to-moderate duty…

This randomized placebo-controlled study evaluated sequenced, modulated extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields for drug-resistant chronic bacterial cystitis in 148 women. The treated group showed significant between-group differences at 4 weeks in multiple laboratory parameters, with reported sustained…

This in vitro study exposed three ccRCC cell lines and a healthy kidney cell line (HEK293) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 4.5 mT for 30 minutes daily over 5 days. The authors report exposure-associated changes in expression of several genes (names not fully visible in the abstract), with differences between primary…

This review discusses repeated electromagnetic field stimulation (REMFS) as a potential non-invasive therapy for Alzheimer's disease. The abstract describes reported benefits in AD mice, including reduced beta-amyloid, prevention of neuronal death, halted disease progression, and improved memory without edema or…

This laboratory/engineering study examined how sulfide modification of nanoscale zero-valent iron interacts with an electromagnetic field to degrade decabromodiphenyl ether. The combined sulfidation+EMF condition reportedly increased the specific reaction rate constant by 7–10× versus nZVI alone. The abstract…

This pilot animal study evaluated helmet-delivered EMF stimulation after controlled cortical impact traumatic brain injury in Yucatan miniswine. Three weeks after injury, EMF-treated animals reportedly showed preserved neuronal tissue morphology and reduced inflammatory markers across several measurement platforms.…

This in vitro study exposed B16-BL6 melanoma cells to a time-varying EMF modeled after intercellular calcium-wave firing patterns. The abstract reports a 50.3% reduction in viable cells after a single 40-minute exposure and microscopy findings consistent with apoptosis and nuclear fragmentation versus control. The…

This in vitro study characterized spinning oscillating magnetic field (sOMF) stimulation patterns that the authors report can induce cytotoxicity in two types of human glioma cells. The reported effect was linked to a critical rise in superoxide, and was reversed by the antioxidant Trolox, suggesting ROS involvement.…

This laboratory/engineering study evaluated thermally enhanced desorption of m-xylene from soil using heat generated by zero-valent iron (ZVI) under low-frequency electromagnetic fields. The abstract reports rapid heating (to ~60°C in 20 minutes) and substantially lower residual m-xylene after 60 minutes versus soil…

This study evaluated 12 mT electromagnetic fields (100–400 Hz) applied during 30 minutes of cold storage (4 °C) of grass carp. EMF exposure was associated with increased CaATPase activity and frequency-dependent changes in protein and lipid oxidation. NMR results suggested altered water–protein interactions, and the…

This mouse study tested whether alternating current electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure modifies muscle lipid accumulation during long-term high-fat feeding. Mice exposed to EMF (8 hours/day for 16 weeks; maximum 180 mT) while on a high-fat diet had lower intramyocellular lipid levels than high-fat diet controls.…

This engineering study used electromagnetic field-assisted laser cladding to produce Norem02 iron-based cemented carbide coatings on 304 stainless steel and evaluated microstructure and mechanical-related properties. The abstract reports no change in phase composition but notable microstructural refinement and…
