This animal study examined whether EMF from a 90 kHz magnetic-coupling resonant wireless power transfer (WPT) system affects mouse cognition and hippocampal neuronal excitability. Mice were exposed for 2, 4, or 8 weeks and assessed with a Novel Object Recognition test and dentate gyrus patch-clamp recordings. The…

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 double-blind randomized sham-controlled cross-over study tested short-term RF-EMF exposure effects on cognitive performance in 60 healthy adults aged 60–80 years. Participants completed attentional tasks during exposure to GSM 900 MHz, TETRA 385 MHz, or sham across nine sessions. Two of 16 outcomes showed…

This single-arm 12-week pilot/feasibility study enrolled 25 relatively healthy adults to evaluate an in-home resonance-based EMF protection device (BluShield). The abstract reports high compliance and no adverse events, with modest improvements in self-reported health, several cognitive questionnaire domains, and…

This animal study evaluated whether ELF-EMF exposure affects recovery-related outcomes after cerebral ischemia in rats. Rats exposed to 50 Hz, 1 mT ELF-EMF for 2 hours daily over 28 days showed better Morris water maze performance than untreated rats. The study also reports increased hippocampal neurogenesis markers…

Jan 1, 2012
This 4-year cohort study in 871 non-demented older Chinese adults examined frequent digital mobile phone use and changes in cognitive performance. The authors report no significant harmful association between phone use and cognitive functioning. They note users tended to have characteristics linked to better…
