Long-term residential magnetic field exposure and neurodegenerative disease mortality: An 18-year nationwide cohort study in Switzerland
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Feb 11, 2026
This 18-year nationwide Swiss cohort study modelled long-term residential ELF magnetic field exposure from high-voltage power lines (50 Hz) and railway lines (16.7 Hz) and examined neurodegenerative disease mortality. High-voltage power line exposure was associated with higher mortality from Alzheimer's disease and…

RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This engineering/modeling study developed a 3D myelin microstructure model using finite element analysis and high-resolution imaging to simulate local electromagnetic field distributions. It reports that myelin architecture substantially shapes the distribution of electromagnetic fields across neural tissues. The…
Electromagnetic fields and oxidative stress: The link to the development of cancer, neurological diseases, and behavioral disorders
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This review discusses epidemiological and mechanistic reports linking EMF exposure with oxidative stress and disease risk, and introduces an Electromagnetic Pathogenesis (EMP) conceptual model. The model proposes that non-ionizing EMFs increase mitochondrial electron leakage via electron tunneling, raising free…
Low frequency magnetic field exposure and neurodegenerative disease: systematic review of animal studies
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This systematic review synthesizes animal studies on low frequency magnetic field exposure in relation to neurodegenerative diseases. It reports no support for a causal induction of Alzheimer’s-type neuropathology in naive animals, while noting that evidence is too limited to draw strong conclusions for motor neuron…
Sleep and Arousal Hubs and Ferromagnetic Ultrafine Particulate Matter and Nanoparticle Motion Under Electromagnetic Fields: Neurodegeneration, Sleep Disorders, Orexinergic Neurons, and Air Pollution in Young Urbanites

RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This review/overview argues that ultrafine particulate matter and industrial nanoparticles can reach the brain and accumulate in sleep and arousal regulatory regions, including orexinergic neuron hubs. It reports that ferromagnetic particles in these regions show motion responsive to low-intensity electromagnetic…
Disordered redox metabolism of brain cells in rats exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation or UHF electromagnetic radiation.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2016
This animal study assessed redox-state changes in rat brain cells after long-term low-intensity ionizing radiation exposure or fractionated non-thermal UHF electromagnetic radiation. Both exposures were associated with decreased ubisemiquinone and increased NO-FeS-protein complexes, alongside increased mitochondrial…
Neurodegenerative disease and magnetic field exposure in UK electricity supply workers
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2014
This cohort study examined mortality from Alzheimer’s disease, motor neurone disease, and Parkinson’s disease among 73,051 UK electricity supply workers from 1973 to 2010. Occupational magnetic-field exposure was assessed using detailed calculations and analyzed using Poisson regression across lifetime, distant…
