This IARC Monograph evaluated carcinogenic hazards from radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (30 kHz to 300 GHz) using epidemiological, animal, and mechanistic evidence. Based on limited evidence in humans, including an increased risk of glioma among heavy u…
This narrative review argues that biological disturbances seen in autism spectrum conditions parallel reported effects of EMF/RFR exposure, including oxidative stress, calcium dysregulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, immune dysregulation, neuroinflammation, …
This narrative review argues that biological disturbances reported in autism spectrum conditions parallel reported physiological effects of EMF/RFR exposure. It states that EMF/RFR could add to allostatic load, increase risk, and worsen symptoms in ASCs, and …
This paper provides an overview of epidemiological evidence and reports a meta-analysis of Hardell group and Interphone results for mobile phone use. In the meta-analysis, higher odds were reported for glioma in the temporal lobe with latency ≥10 years (OR=1.…
RF-EMR exposure was associated with significant persistent overproduction of superoxide and nitrogen oxide across all analysis timepoints. Exposed embryos also showed significantly increased TBARS and 8-oxo-dG and significantly decreased superoxide dismutase …
Exposure to a 50-Hz alternating magnetic field (1, 11, 21 G) for 5 days decreased reproductive capacity by up to 4.3%, with larger decreases at higher field intensities. Increased DNA fragmentation (TUNEL-positive signal) and consequent cell death were report…
Compared with sham-exposed rats, 900 MHz microwave-exposed rats showed significant impairment in cognitive function and increased oxidative stress markers in blood (increased MDA and protein carbonyl), with unaltered GSH content.
Exposure to 2.1 GHz W-CDMA modulated microwave radiation at SAR 0.607 W/kg for 4 and 24 h was associated with significantly decreased cell viability, increased Annexin V-FITC positive cells, and significantly decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) i…
Male Fischer rats exposed for 30 days to microwave radiation at 900, 1800, or 2450 MHz (SARs ~5.835×10^-4 to 6.672×10^-4 W/kg) showed DNA damaging effects in brain tissue assessed by alkaline comet assay, compared with sham-exposed animals.
Among 100 radar workers exposed to 14–18 GHz, 20–39% reported symptoms such as headache, insomnia, feeling run down, and irritability; 47% reported feeling under strain and 31% reported enjoying day-to-day activities less than usual. Work experience was repor…
Compared with sham-exposed rats, 10 GHz-exposed rats showed shrinkage of seminiferous tubule lumen and apoptotic bodies, increased micronuclei formation in lymphocytes, DNA strand breaks on comet assay, and significantly decreased testosterone with reduced te…
Rats exposed to 900 MHz EMF (whole-body average SAR 1.08 W/kg; 1 h/day for 3 weeks) had increased brain malondialdehyde (MDA) (p<0.001) and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) (p<0.05); garlic powder reduced these increases (p<0.05). Brain nitric oxide…
Earthworms exposed in vivo to homogeneous 900 MHz RF-EMF at 10, 23, 41, and 120 V/m for 2 h showed significant genotoxic effects in coelomocytes measured by the Comet assay. At 23 V/m, longer exposure (4 h) and amplitude modulation (80% AM, 1 kHz sinusoidal) …
Compared with a sham-exposed group, up to 15 protein spots showed significant changes (at least 2- to 2.5-fold up or down) after exposure. Twelve proteins were identified among the changed spots (including procollagen-proline, eukaryotic translation elongatio…
This narrative review argues that methodological limitations in parts of the literature may explain inconsistent findings and states that recent analyses (not included in the 2011 IARC review) report significantly elevated brain tumor risk among people who ha…
Rats exposed to 900 MHz RF-EMF showed statistically significant differences in CA, MN frequency, MI, and PCE ratio in all treatment and recovery groups. Cytogenotoxic damage was higher in immature rats than in mature rats, and a 15-day recovery period did not…
A single 15-minute exposure to an 1800 MHz GSM-like EMF significantly reduced blood antioxidant capacity in both healthy rats and rats with CFA-induced paw inflammation. In CFA-treated rats, a synergic mode of action between EMF exposure and tramadol administ…
Measurements of EMF emissions from the portable radio-station "Radiy-301" and evaluation of SAR suggested that workers' EMF exposure levels may exceed hygienic norms and therefore may represent a health risk factor. The paper also considers improving EMF dosi…

After 10 min pulsed 2.45 GHz RF-EMF exposure, neuronal cell viability decreased and apoptotic nuclei increased; CDK5 activity, p25/p35 ratio, and tau phosphorylation at Ser(404) increased, while CDK5 expression did not change. Roscovitine pretreatment signifi…
Chick embryos exposed throughout incubation to a 50 Hz alternating EMF (50 or 100 μT) showed augmented heart rate, especially from 17 days of incubation. Increased heart rate was associated with increased plasma T4 and T3 concentrations during the final stage…
