This animal study tested repeated 50 Hz, 5 mT ELF-EMF exposure in rats with and without PTZ-induced epilepsy. The authors report changes in learning/short-term memory in the EMF+PTZ group versus PTZ alone and increased analgesia latency in EMF-exposed groups. PTZ increased oxidative stress (TOS) in brain regions, and…

This study compares PBMC cryopreservation using an electromagnetic field (EMF) freezer versus standard slow-freezing (SLF). It reports equivalent viable cell number, viability, and cell activity between methods. EMF freezing required substantially less time (0.25 h vs 3 h), which may improve operational efficiency by…

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 in vitro study examined whether low-frequency electromagnetic fields (EMF) affect mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) polarity and directional migration at wound edges. EMF-treated cells showed increased asymmetric redistribution of the polarity marker β-COP and altered γ-tubulin localization at wound margins. The…

This in vitro study exposed DU-145 prostate cancer cells to extremely low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields (ELF P-EMF) at different intensities and times. The authors report increased cell mortality and apoptosis with higher intensity (22.6–35 mT) and longer exposure. They also report gene-expression changes…

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 8-year longitudinal study of thermal power station workers assessed co-exposure to occupational noise and ELF-EMFs in relation to PSA levels. Noise exposure (LAeq) was associated with increased log-PSA in both unadjusted and adjusted models, and the association persisted after adjusting for ELF-EMFs. ELF-EMF…

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 in vitro/ex vivo study tested whether different magnetic-field configurations alter ketoprofen properties and its transdermal delivery in porcine skin using Franz diffusion cells. The authors report no change in ketoprofen molecular structure, but subtle changes in crystal structure and physicochemical…

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 in vitro study examined extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) effects on spinal cord-derived neural stem cells (NSCs) from adult mice. The authors report that ELF-EMFs increase NSC proliferation and self-renewal with upregulation of Sox2. They also report activation of T-type calcium channels,…

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 translational engineering paper describes a portable RF birdcage/meander line antenna concept for repeated electromagnetic field stimulation at 64 MHz aimed at lowering amyloid-beta in Alzheimer’s disease. The abstract reports prior in vitro findings in primary human brain cultures showing reduced secreted Aβ-42…

This in vitro study examined ELF-EMF effects in normal cybrids and NARP cybrids carrying a pathogenic MT-ATP6 mtDNA mutation mixture. ELF-EMF did not alter mtDNA copy number or the wild-type-to-mutant mtDNA ratio, but it increased mtDNA transcription and multiple markers of mitochondrial function in NARP cybrids,…
