This animal study examined repeated pulsed-modulated RF exposure (1–4 GHz; total pulse power density 300 μW/cm2) in male and female Wistar rats and assessed behavior using the open field test. The abstract reports stress reactions and long-term memory impairment in some rats, with females described as more sensitive…

This systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis synthesizes human observational studies on radiofrequency EMF exposure and male fertility outcomes. It reports evidence of an association between RF exposure and poorer sperm parameters, including reduced quality, motility, and viability. The authors frame the…

This animal study exposed adult male C57BL/6 mice to a 4.9 GHz radiofrequency field for three weeks (1 hour/day) and compared them with a sham group. The abstract reports altered fecal microbiome composition with reduced diversity in the RF group, along with 258 significantly differentially abundant fecal…

This animal study examined whether prenatal mobile phone RF exposure affects brain injury markers and outcomes after neonatal hypoxia-ischemia in rats. The HI/Exposure group showed higher MMP-9 expression along with increased inflammatory and oxidative stress markers, larger infarct volume and edema, and worse…

This animal study examined whether anesthesia and body mass modify body temperature responses to 915 MHz RF exposure at 4 W/kg whole-body SAR for 8 hours. Non-anesthetized, free-moving rats showed no significant temperature change during exposure. In contrast, anesthetized rats showed marked temperature increases,…

This ecological analysis reports increasing thyroid cancer incidence over time in Sweden (1970–2017) and similarly across Nordic countries using NORDCAN data (1970–2016), with sharper increases in more recent years. The authors report similar increases for smaller (≤4 cm) and larger (>4 cm) tumors and interpret this…

This animal study exposed male Sprague-Dawley rats to 900 MHz GSM mobile phone RF radiation for 4 hours and assessed ERα promoter methylation in colon tissue. The authors report altered ERα methylation patterns versus controls after RF exposure. They also report no radioadaptive response in ERα methylation following…

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…

This animal study examined oxidative stress and antioxidant defenses in loach embryos exposed to GSM 900 MHz microwave radiation (SAR 1.1 W/kg) for 1–20 minutes during early embryogenesis. The authors report significant changes in lipid peroxidation products and altered antioxidant enzyme activities. They conclude…

This in vitro study tested whether 900 MHz GSM mobile phone radiation affects ferritin measurements in human serum wells. Exposed wells (30 minutes, speech-mode phone) showed a statistically significant decrease in ferritin compared with unexposed controls. The authors propose RF exposure may influence…

This review describes public concerns and scientific reports of non-thermal biological effects from low-intensity ELF and RF exposures. It lists multiple health endpoints reported to be associated with ELF and/or RF and highlights the BioInitiative Report’s conclusion that a reasonable suspicion of risk exists at…
