This exposure assessment characterized RF-EMF levels in a Neonatal Medium Care Unit and inside incubators using spot and long-term dosimeter measurements. Reported levels varied by location (higher near a window and near the evaluated incubator) and by time (higher at night than during the day). The authors emphasize…

This rat study examined 900 MHz EMF exposure for 60 minutes per day over 15 days and assessed hippocampal and cerebellar outcomes, behavior, and serum enzyme activity. The EMF-only group showed significant neuronal cell losses in multiple brain regions and worse passive avoidance performance compared with other…

This experimental study examined whether 2100 MHz cell phone-related RF-EMF exposure affects oxidative stress markers in onion roots. After 1–4 hours of continuous-wave exposure in a single day, the study reports increased lipid peroxidation and ROS-related measures (MDA, hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion).…

This study compared 60 healthy female medical students grouped by self-reported daily mobile phone use by the head (90 min). MRI/MRS analyses found no significant differences in hippocampal volume or in choline, creatine, and N-acetyl aspartate between groups. However, the higher-use group showed poorer performance…

This study assessed working memory before and after 5 minutes of mobile phone use using a brief computerized 10-word recall task. The experimental group showed worse performance immediately after phone use, with partial improvement 5 minutes later, while the control group improved across repeated tests without phone…

This animal study examined iron distribution in rabbit cerebellum after exposure to RF electromagnetic fields, using light and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive microanalysis. The authors report dystrophic changes in Purkinje cells in irradiated groups and deposits containing multiple elements…

This study investigated how laboratory bacterial strains and skin bacterial isolates respond to static magnetic fields and radiofrequency EMF described as cell phone-level exposure. The authors report variable and inconsistent growth responses across species and across isolates from four subjects. They propose that…

This mouse study examined whether 50 Hz, 1 mT electromagnetic field exposure affects working memory and hippocampal electrophysiology. The authors report reduced Y-maze working memory performance after 3 days of EMF exposure, accompanied by decreased hippocampal firing rates. They also report reduced theta and…

This in vitro study assessed whether RF-EMF exposure from a GSM 900 MHz mobile phone simulator and a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi router alters bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics. The authors report significant changes in inhibition zone diameters and bacterial growth rate after exposure. They also describe an exposure window…

This animal study examined combined exposure to microwave radiation and hypergravity in rats and assessed whether Rana sylvatica Le Conte oil had protective effects. The hypergravity plus microwave group showed reduced motor performance, reduced cholinergic enzyme activities, and reduced total antioxidant capacity,…

This study examined proposed mechanisms of microwave radiation effects using a bacterial culture and a sterile growth medium, focusing on a sensor bioluminescence system. The authors report irradiation-related changes in UV spectral properties (200–350 nm), luminescence, NMR relaxation parameters, bacterial growth,…

This exploratory survey study assessed the association between mobile phone radiation exposure and thyroid function among 83 undergraduate medical students in South India. The authors report a significant correlation between total radiation exposure and higher TSH levels, seen in students both with and without a…

This rat study examined whether pulse-modulated 900 MHz and 1800 MHz RF exposure affects blood-brain barrier permeability using Evans blue dye. The abstract reports increased permeability in male rats at both frequencies (stronger at 1800 MHz) and in female rats at 900 MHz but not at 1800 MHz. The authors suggest…
