The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis as a substrate for stress resilience: Interactions with the circadian clock.

December 22, 2019
Front Neuroendocrinol. 2019 Dec 18:100819. doi: 10.1016/j.yfrne.2019.100819. [Epub ahead of print] Abstract Stress, primarily processed via the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, engages biological pathways throughout the brain and body which promote adaptation and survival to changing environmental demands. Adaptation to environmental challenges is compromised when these pathways are no longer functioning optimally. The physiological and behavioral mechanisms...

Postural load in digital device usage and musculoskeletal disorders

December 22, 2019
Source: https://www.pointsdevue.com/article/postural-load-digital-device-usage-and-musculoskeletal-disorders?fbclid=IwAR00DRiPQoLTl4utOq-m5CWSq9-QzMr1xW3b_GvzzMOZ7UvG9kg5etb5PIU Prolonged use of digital devices has been demonstrated to greatly affect the health of workers who use them during their working day. In fact, 62% of such workers eventually end up with neck and shoulder musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). The most frequent signs and symptoms include pain, muscle fatigue, headache, muscle imbalances, a tendency...

EMF-Portal Studies on 5th generation mobile communications (5G)

December 21, 2019
5G-related articles are studies in which the authors explicitly declare their intention to study 5G exposure. Note: Further studies on millimeter wave exposure as well as other mobile communication exposure may be important to the assessment of 5G. These studies are not automatically included in this overview. If necessary, please perform additional searches using the search terms “millimeter waves” and “mobile communication.” Studies on...

Early‐Life Exposure to Pulsed LTE Radiofrequency Fields Causes Persistent Changes in Activity and Behavior in C57BL/6 J Mice

December 17, 2019
Bioelectromagnetics. 2019 Oct; 40(7): 498–511. Published online 2019 Sep 15. doi: 10.1002/bem.22217 Abstract Despite much research, gaps remain in knowledge about the potential health effects of exposure to radiofrequency (RF) fields. This study investigated the effects of early‐life exposure to pulsed long term evolution (LTE) 1,846 MHz downlink signals on innate mouse behavior. Animals were exposed for 30 min/day,...

Adverse Effects of Wi-Fi Radiation on Male Reproductive System: A Systematic Review

December 12, 2019
Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine (TJEM) 2019 Volume 248 Issue 3 Pages 169-179 https://doi.org/10.1620/tjem.248.169 Abstract Extensive use of Wi-Fi has contributed to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation (RF-EMR) pollution in environment. Various studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of RF-EMR emitted by Wi-Fi transmitter on male reproduction health. However, there are conflicting findings between studies....

Wi-Fi decreases melatonin protective effect and increases hippocampal neuronal damage in pentylenetetrazole induced model seizures in rats.

December 12, 2019
Pathophysiology. 2019 Nov 21. pii: S0928-4680(19)30043-4. doi: 10.1016/j.pathophys.2019.11.003. [Epub ahead of print] Abstract AIM: Epilepsy is a common brain disorder in which the seizures could cause a neuronal loss in the hippocampus. Oxidative stress has an important role in the pathology of epilepsy. Some studies indicate that Wi-Fi increases oxidative stress and suppresses antioxidant systems. The aim...
