Feb 26, 2026
This randomized, between-subjects study in 98 healthy volunteers tested whether patterned EMF stimulation alters Digit Span performance and EEG activity. Theta-Burst stimulation reduced working memory (Digit Span Backward) and was associated with increased high-alpha activity in frontal regions. Theta-Gamma…

This systematic review evaluated evidence on RF-EMF exposure and cardiac activity (heart rate and heart rate variability) in healthy humans at rest. Across 28 studies spanning 100 to 110,000 MHz and exposures from minutes to a week, most studies reported no significant effects on resting heart rate, and HRV findings…

This study assessed short-term autonomic cardiac responses to RF EMF exposure using HRV metrics in 30 healthy young adults. During 2400 MHz (Wi-Fi) exposure applied to the chest for 5 minutes, HF-HRV decreased and the sympathetic-related 0V% index increased compared with 2600 MHz (4G) exposure, while RR intervals did…

This study examined whether acute GSM 900 MHz mobile phone exposure affects electrodermal activity responses to auditory stimuli in 28 young volunteers. The authors report no exposure-related changes in SCR latency, amplitude, integral, or number of responses. Session differences in skin conductance/tonic…

This paper describes a new magnetization transfer 31P MRS approach (MT-ISIS) for measuring the creatine kinase forward reaction rate in the human brain using a volume 31P/1H RF coil on a clinical 3-T MRI system. The method aims to reduce acquisition time (30 min), avoid scalp muscle contamination, improve RF…
The effect of GSM-like ELF radiation on the alpha band of the human resting EEG.

Jan 1, 2008
This double-blind, counterbalanced cross-over study investigated whether extremely low frequency (DC to at least 40 kHz) fields emitted by GSM handsets affect resting EEG. In 72 healthy volunteers, the authors report a decrease in the alpha band during 20 minutes of ELF exposure in the exposed hemisphere only. They…
