Synthesis of 12 studies (2026) linking RF/EMF exposures and wireless tech use to oxidative stress, apoptosis, reproductive harm, kidney changes, sleep disruption, and base-station symptom patterns—supporting precautio…
Symptoms associated with environmental factors are positively related to sensory-processing sensitivity
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This cross-sectional survey of 491 participants examined symptoms associated with environmental factors, including perceived sensitivity to electromagnetic fields. Psychological traits (somatic symptom distress, somatosensory amplification, body awareness, and sensory-processing sensitivity) were positively related…
Impact of expectancy on fatigue by exposure to the fifth generation of mobile communication signals
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This randomized sham-controlled study in 21 healthy participants tested whether routine-level 5G RF-EMF exposure affects fatigue and EEG power, while manipulating expectancy via correct, false, or no information about exposure order. The study reports no change in EEG power with real versus sham exposure. However,…

Jan 1, 2021
This cross-sectional online survey study (n=122) examined increased dependency on mobile phone technology and electronic gadgets in India during the COVID-19 lockdown. Most participants reported increased usage and perceived increased risk of health problems from excessive use. The authors conclude that technology…
Modern health worries and idiopathic environmental intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields are associated with paranoid ideation.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2021
This cross-sectional online survey examined whether paranoid ideation is associated with modern health worries and idiopathic environmental intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields (IEI-EMF). Paranoid ideation was positively associated with modern health worries and with IEI-EMF status, even after controlling…
Causal perception is central in electromagnetic hypersensitivity - a commentary on "Electromagnetic hypersensitivity: a critical review of explanatory hypotheses''.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2020
This is a commentary on Dieudonné (2020) addressing explanatory hypotheses for electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS). The authors state that the electromagnetic hypothesis (EMF exposure as the cause of EHS) appears scientifically largely unfounded and that psychological-process accounts are more plausible. They…
Extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) reduces oxidative stress and improves functional and psychological status in ischemic stroke patients.
Research

Jan 1, 2017
This clinical study evaluated whether adding ELF-EMF exposure to a 4-week rehabilitation program affects antioxidant and clinical status in ischemic stroke patients. Fifty-seven patients were assigned to an ELF-EMF group or a non-ELF-EMF group, with the exposed group receiving 40 Hz, 7 mT for 15 minutes per day over…
