Evaluation of Wi-Fi Radiation Effects on Antibiotic Susceptibility, Metabolic Activity and Biofilm Formation by Escherichia Coli 0157H7, Staphylococcus Aureus and Staphylococcus Epidermis

November 25, 2019
J Biomed Phys Eng. 2019 Oct; 9(5): 579–586. Published online 2019 Oct 1. doi: 10.31661/jbpe.v0i0.1106 Abstract Background: The radiation emitted from electromagnetic fields (EMF) can cause biological effects on prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, including non-thermal effects. Objective: The present study evaluated the non-thermal effects of wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) operating at 2.4 GHz part of non-ionizing EMF on...

Electromagnetic Energy Absorption in a Head Approaching a Radiofrequency Identification (RFID) Reader Operating at 13.56 MHz in Users of Hearing Implants Versus Non-Users.

November 24, 2019
Sensors (Basel). 2019 Aug 28;19(17). pii: E3724. doi: 10.3390/s19173724. Abstract The aim of this study was to model the absorption in the head of an electromagnetic field (EMF) emitted by a radiofrequency identification reader operating at a frequency of 13.56 MHz (recognized as an RFID HF reader), with respect to the direct biophysical effects evaluated by...

Exposure to the magnetic field from an induction loop pad for a hearing aid system.

November 24, 2019
Int J Occup Saf Ergon. 2017 Mar;23(1):143-145. doi: 10.1080/10803548.2016.1226597. Epub 2016 Sep 19. Abstract As a case study we have measured the magnetic field from an induction loop pad designed for hearing aid assistance. The magnitude of the field was high, although well below international guidelines. We recorded values up to 70% of the recommended standard...

Cochlear implants in the etiopathogenesis of glioblastoma–an interesting observation or independent finding?

November 24, 2019
Abstract Various risk factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of glioblastomas including ionizing radiation. Recent evidence has suggested a possible association between exposure to nonionizing radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) generated from mobile phones and wireless devices to cause malignant transformation of the neuroglial cells, albeit this is widely debated. In this report, we discuss the development...

2011- Council of Europe: The potential dangers of electromagnetic fields and their effect on the environment

November 20, 2019
  The potential dangers of electromagnetic fields and their effect on the environment Excerpt: As regards standards or threshold values for emissions of electromagnetic fields of all types and frequencies, the Assembly strongly recommends that the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle is applied, covering both the so-called thermal effects and the athermic or...

A Critical Review of Digital Technology in Education that should give Policy Makers and Educators Pause for Thought

November 20, 2019
Credit for post: Professor Tom Butler and The EM Radiation Research Trust PDF https://www.radiationresearch.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Digital-Technology-in-Education-Working-Paper-2019.pdf “Digital Technology is hardly the benign, neutral presence in education that we are often assured it to be” Selwyn (2015, p. 247) Abstract There is a dearth of scientific evidence and evidence-based practice to justify current levels of digital technology use for...

The Association of Sleep Disorders, Obesity, and Sleep-Related Hypoxia with Cancer.

November 19, 2019
Curr Top Med Chem. 2019 Nov 17. doi: 10.2174/1568026619666191118110155. [Epub ahead of print] Abstract Abstract BACKGROUND: Sleep disorders have emerged as potential cancer risk factors. OBJECTIVE: This review discusses the relationships between sleep, obesity, and breathing disorders with concomitant risks of developing cancer. RESULTS: Sleep disorders result in an abnormal expression of clock genes, decreased immunity,...

The physiological significance of the circadian dynamics of the HPA axis: Interplay between circadian rhythms, allostasis and stress resilience.

November 17, 2019
Horm Behav. 2019 Apr;110:77-89. doi: 10.1016/j.yhbeh.2019.02.018. Epub 2019 Mar 15. Abstract Circadian time-keeping mechanisms preserve homeostasis by synchronizing internal physiology with predictable variations in the environment and temporally organize the activation of physiological signaling mechanisms to promote survival and optimize the allocation of energetic resources. In this paper, we highlight the importance of the robust circadian...
