Electromagnetic field strength was measured at marine radar frequencies (3 GHz, 5.5 GHz, 9.4 GHz) and corresponding SAR values were determined. Exposed workers differed significantly from unexposed controls on comet assay parameters (tail intensity and tail m…
All six bacterial strains showed decreased growth rate compared with controls during 50 Hz, 0.5 mT ELF-EMF exposure, and the decrease continued after transfer to fresh medium and culture without field application. Significant ultrastructural changes were obse…
Chronic iron overload stimulated antioxidant defenses without causing oxidative stress. EMF exposure at 150 kHz increased lipid peroxidation without affecting antioxidant defenses. Combined EMF and iron overload increased lipid peroxidation further and abolis…
Exposure of bovine lung membranes to a 75 Hz ELF magnetic field at different amplitudes produced a reproducible 17% decrease in carbonic anhydrase activity, with a reported threshold of about 0.74 mT. The decrease was independent of time in the field and was …
After 24 h exposure to RF-EMF (1.8–7.8 V/m) generated by AM 1.287 MHz transmitting antennas, etiolated duckweed showed alanine accumulation in cells, described as a universal stress signal. The effect magnitude qualitatively corresponded to exposure level, an…
From 1996–2006 there were 7191 deaths by neoplasia and approximately 856 base stations installed by December 2006. The mortality rate within 500 m of a base station was reported as 34.76 per 10,000 inhabitants, with fewer deaths outside this area. Environment…
In a double-blinded provocation procedure, the subject developed temporal pain, headache, muscle twitching, and skipped heartbeats within 100 seconds after initiation of 60-Hz electric-field exposure (average over head 300 V/m; p < .05). Symptoms were reporte…
After 900 MHz EMF exposure (28.2 ± 2.1 V/m; 2 h/day for 45 days), antioxidant enzyme activity and glutathione levels in lymphoid organs and plasma antioxidant capacity decreased, while lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide levels in PMNs and plasma and myeloper…
Eggs exposed to a 50 Hz sinusoidal EMF (7.32 mT) for 24 h before incubation showed extensive hemorrhages and liver histopathological changes (e.g., disturbed parenchymal tissues, sinusoid denaturation, vesiculized cytoplasm), increased apoptotic cells, and de…
Exposure to 900 MHz mobile phone radiation at 0.9 W/kg SAR for 2 hours daily over 45 days in rats led to significant decreases in glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, protein kinase, and melatonin levels, and significant increases in catalase activit…
EMF exposure significantly decreased the number of blastocysts and increased DNA fragmentation index in blastocysts compared to control. No significant difference was found in the number of blastomers or pregnant mice between groups.
Long-term exposure (30 days) to non-thermal intensity RF EMF at 500 microW/cm2 caused significant amplification of immune response in rats, including increased antibody titers to brain tissue and other antigens with high statistical reliability.

Exposure to 60 Hz, 1 mT EMF decreased tubular diameter, seminiferous tubules area, seminiferous epithelium height, total volume of seminiferous tubule, tubular lumen, seminiferous epithelium, and Leydig cells, while increasing connective tissue cells and bloo…
Chronic exposure to mobile phone radiation at SAR 0.22 W/kg affected recognition memory in mice, particularly during the consolidation phase of the memory task, suggesting EMF may interfere with entorhinal-parahippocampal information transfer pathways.
During 5 minutes of exposure to mobile phone EMF, all patients showed a substantial decrease in amplitude and a significant increase in latency of cochlear nerve compound action potentials. These changes lasted for about 5 minutes after exposure.
Rats exposed to a 2.5-G, 60-Hz magnetic field showed increased glucose utilization (FDG uptake) in hindbrain voxels when the field was applied orthogonally to the sagittal plane, but not when the field direction varied randomly. Distinct FDG activation effect…
A renal-pleural fistula occurred after a repeat percutaneous CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of renal tumors in a VHL patient. Conservative management (water restriction and ureteral catheter) led to complete regression after three weeks.

The article provides an overview of epidemiological and experimental evidence on electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones in humans and animals, with detailed consideration of effects on children. It reports that children are more sensitive to this exposu…

A 27-year-old man underwent CT-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for presumed femoral osteoid osteoma and subsequently developed worsening symptoms complicated by osteomyelitis. Clinical course and MRI findings led to a revised diagnosis of Brodie's…
EMF strengths near 20 shortwave diathermy units reached up to 200 V/m and 0.20 A/m at the console, up to 180 V/m and 0.40 A/m at electrodes, and during intervention procedures hands were exposed up to 900 V/m and 2.0 A/m. The maximum exposure indicator W was …
