Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity under 28 GHz 5G-band electromagnetic radiation in rats: Insights into the mitigative role of vitamin C

This animal study tested whether short-term 28 GHz (5G-band) millimeter-wave exposure modifies doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in male rats and whether vitamin C mitigates effects. Co-exposure to 28 GHz EMR was reported to worsen several indices of DOX-related cardiac injury (including CAT reduction, increased BAX…

Impact of Anthropomorphic Shape and Skin Stratification on Absorbed Power Density in mmWaves Exposure Scenarios

This dosimetry study used FDTD simulations at 28 GHz to evaluate how skin stratification and anthropomorphic modeling affect absorbed power density (APD) estimates. APD was higher with stratified skin than with homogeneous skin for a wearable patch antenna (16%–30% higher), while plane-wave differences were smaller (

Single exposure to near-threshold 5G millimeter wave modifies restraint stress responses in rats

In a rat experiment (n=59), a single 40-minute whole-body 28 GHz exposure at near-threshold WBA-SAR levels was evaluated under normal and heat conditions with restraint. After accounting for sham-related restraint stress, exposure was associated with increased serum-free corticosterone 1–3 days later, especially when…
