“Only for ELF-MF in men we observed a significant increased risk of ALS mortality with increasing exposure levels.” … “These results strengthen the evidence suggesting a positive association between ELF-MF exposure and ALS.” Open access.
-
David Egilman takes aim at Michael Kelsh of Exponent, among others, for following the dictates of defense lawyers rather than occupatiomal health. Kelsh also worked on a study of Motorola workers that was used by the company in an attempt to refute a microwave-cancer rirsk.
-
From China. The third recent meta-analysis that points to a cancer risk. Here are links to all three.
-
Anyone interested in microwaves and the Moscow embassy affair will be fascinated by this well-written slice of history from the Cold War.
-
“We found a high-level damage in trees within the vicinity of phone masts.” From a German-Spanish team.
-
Michael Levin of Tufts University carries on the work of Robert Becker.
-
“The results indicate that the current densities induced in the brain during DECT calls are likely to be an order of magnitude lower than those generated during GSM calls but over twice that during UMTS calls.” See also the group’s earlier paper.
-
“An estimated 3% of Californians believe EMFs are affecting their health.”

-
The extremely low MW level = 1 μW/cm2. From the Institute of Biophysics in Puschino, Russia.
-
This new analysis found “generally similar results” to the original Interphone study, but with “stronger positive associations among long-term users.”
-
“Induced oxidative stress causes DNA damage in germ cells, which alters cell cycle progression leading to low sperm count in mice.” These changes are reversible (from Assam University, India; open access).
-
Novocure’s 200 kHz signals kept 43% of GBM patients alive compared to 30% on the standard treatment.

“This historical account of industry efforts demonstrates the importance of having reviews written by people without conflicts of interest and the need for financial disclosure.” From Stanton Glantz’s Center for Tobacco Research. Open access. More than 10 years ago the electric utility industry paid Leeka Kheifets $50,000 for a literature review.
-
“We propose a mechanistic model in which RF-EMR exposure leads to defective mitochondrial function associated with elevated levels of ROS production…” From Australia, open access.
-
“This discovery is important because nanoscale magnetite can respond to external magnetic fields, and is toxic to the brain, being implicated in production of damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS).” See also Newsweek story.
