This animal study examined early postnatal mice after exposure to 1850 MHz RF-EMF and measured synaptic activity in brainstem auditory circuitry. The abstract reports increased spontaneous postsynaptic current frequency and amplitude in MNTB principal cells, with accompanying presynaptic changes in the calyx of Held…

This exposure assessment quantified RF-EMF levels using portable, high-sampling-rate devices across 94 outdoor microenvironments and 18 public transport vehicles in six countries. Mean outdoor exposure ranged from 0.23 to 1.85 V/m, and public transport exposure ranged from 0.32 to 0.86 V/m. Exposure varied…

This article presents a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis on radiofrequency electromagnetic field exposure from electronic devices and effects on the fertility system. The authors cite growing public concern and conflicting findings in prior studies as motivation. The protocol plans broad database…

This case report describes radiofrequency pulmonary vein isolation in a 67-year-old man with dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis. The procedure successfully isolated all pulmonary veins using 3D mapping with intracardiac echocardiography guidance. No procedural complications were reported, and the authors…

This correspondence discusses a prior ecological study examining a possible association between RF-EMF exposure in Albacete, Spain and cancer incidence. The cancers mentioned include lymphomas and brain tumors. The correspondence indicates that shortcomings of the ecological study are discussed, but does not detail…

This study reports a technology that records a specific radiofrequency electromagnetic energy signal associated with EGFR siRNA and applies it to cells. The abstract describes reductions in EGFR mRNA and protein expression versus controls, with specificity assessed using RNA microarray and antibody dot blot array. It…

This retrospective cohort study reviewed medical records from a Swedish tertiary pain centre to assess 1-month outcomes after pulsed radiofrequency for chronic non-cancer pain. Among patients receiving lumbar median branch pulsed radiofrequency, a minority had major or minor improvement, while many had no change and…

This prospective, randomized, single-blind study compared monopolar versus bipolar radiofrequency surgery for inferior turbinate hypertrophy in 71 patients. Over 6 months, long-term symptom outcomes did not significantly differ between groups. Monopolar radiofrequency showed earlier symptom improvement and less…

This single-institution cohort analysis compared radiofrequency microtenotomy with plantar fasciotomy for recalcitrant plantar fasciitis, including a group receiving both procedures. Patient-reported outcomes (SF-36, AOFAS) and satisfaction/expectations were reportedly similar across procedures at 6 months and 1…

This proof-of-concept cohort study evaluated cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) radiofrequency tissue tagging to diagnose constrictive pericarditis and compared results with surgical findings and cardiac catheterization. In 16 patients who underwent pericardiectomy, CMR positivity agreed 100% with intraoperative…

This retrospective study evaluated patient satisfaction and pain relief after pulsed radiofrequency treatment of the sphenopalatine ganglion for chronic facial and head pain. The abstract reports complete pain relief in 35% of patients, mild to moderate relief in 42%, and no acceptable relief in 23%. The authors…
