Effect Synthesis
Mar 1, 2026
Synthesis of 13 studies (2026) spanning 6 GHz, 3.5 GHz, 2.45 GHz Wi‑Fi, 28 GHz mmWave, and real‑world base‑station proximity and smartphone use. Across mechanistic, animal, and observational evidence, multiple biologi…
One or many environmental intolerance(s)? A cluster analysis over two representative samples
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2026
This study used k-prototypes cluster analysis in two representative population-based datasets from Sweden (N=1576) and Finland (N=1233) to examine whether different symptom-attribution types (chemicals, electromagnetic fields, noise, etc.) form distinct disorders. The analysis separated participants with versus…
Weak Radiofrequency Field Effects on Biological Systems Mediated through the Radical Pair Mechanism

Jan 1, 2025
This 2025 review examines claims of biological effects from weak, nonthermal RF magnetic fields and evaluates whether such effects could be mediated by the radical pair mechanism (RPM). It reports that aligning RPM theory with low-level experimental observations remains difficult and that many experimental findings…
5G Radio-Frequency-Electromagnetic-Field Effects on the Human Sleep Electroencephalogram: A Randomized Controlled Study in CACNA1C Genotyped Volunteers

Jan 1, 2025
This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study tested whether CACNA1C rs7304986 genotype modifies sleep EEG responses to 5G RF-EMF exposure. The authors report a genotype-by-exposure interaction, with 3.6 GHz exposure in T/C carriers associated with a faster NREM sleep spindle center frequency versus sham. The…

Jan 1, 2024
This protocol describes the third wave of the HERMES prospective adolescent cohort in Switzerland, with follow-up every four months and at one year. The study will assess electronic media use, modeled RF-EMF and transportation noise exposures, and a range of outcomes including cognition, behavior, sleep, mental…

Jan 1, 2022
This article is a comment on a previously published correlation study assessing whether RF-EMF exposure relates to survey-based health indicators such as sleep, headache, and fatigue. The authors state they performed a detailed analysis of the original study and offer clarifications. The abstract does not provide the…
