Biological responses to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields

TLDR
It is unlikely that exposure to extremely low-density ELF electromagnetic fields at microtesla levels would evoke large changes in cells, however, many unclear issues remain to be resolved.

Idiopathic environmental intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields (IEI-EMF) and electrosensibility (ES) - are they connected?

TL;DR: Although heightened sensibility to MFs may play a role in the development and/or in the perpetuance of the IEI-EMF phenomenon, symptoms attributed to the MF seem to be mainly of psychogenic origin.

The effect of electromagnetic field on reactive oxygen species production in human neutrophils in vitro

TL;DR: It was demonstrated that only EMF tuned to the calcium ion cyclotron resonance frequency was able to affect ROS production in neutrophils, and statistical analysis showed that this effect depended on magnetic induction value of applied EMF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variable spatial magnetic field influences peripheral nerves regeneration in rats

TL;DR: Results indicate that strong spatial alternating magnetic field exerts positive effect on peripheral nerve regeneration and its application could be taken under consideration in the therapy of injured peripheral nerves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-dependent effects of exposure to static magnetic field on glucose and lipid metabolism in rat.

TL;DR: The results showed that SMF effects on glucose and lipid metabolism are time-dependent and failed to alter body weight, relative kidney weight and levels of lactate, cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of short-term 50 Hz electromagnetic field exposure on the behavior of rats.

TL;DR: It seems that these field parameters (that equals the official reference limit for workers) may cause some kind of discomfort, may influence behavior, increase passivity and situational anxiety, but has no verified effect on the social and territorial behavior.

Electrical wiring configurations and childhood cancer

TL;DR: An excess of electrical wiring configurations suggestive of high current-flow was noted in Colorado in 1976--1977 near the homes of children who developed cancer, as compared to the homesof control children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic fields and cancer in children residing near Swedish high-voltage power lines

TL;DR: A case-control study was conducted to test the hypothesis that exposure to magnetic fields of the type generated by high-voltage power lines increases cancer incidence in children and found no support for an association.

Nonthermal 60 Hz sinusoidal magnetic-field exposure enhances 45Ca2+ uptake in rat thymocytes: dependence on mitogen activation.

TL;DR: Modulation of Ca2+ metabolism during cell activation may represent a common pathway for field coupling to cellular systems.

Calcium signaling in lymphocytes and ELF fields: evidence for an electric field metric and a site of interaction involving the calcium ion channel.

TL;DR: Calcium influx increased during mitogen‐activated signal transduction in thymic lymphocytes exposed to a 22 mT, 60 Hz magnetic field in order to distinguish between an electric or a magnetic field dependence, and Alteration of the plateau phase of calcium signalling implicates the calcium channel as a site of field interaction.
