Abstract

Overview

Electric vehicles, which are becoming more prevalent, include high-voltage and electronic components that vary in frequency, waveform, and modulation. This makes the electromagnetic exposure for passengers increasingly complex, especially with the rising use and duration of electric vehicle exposure.

Findings

• Potential health impacts of cumulative electromagnetic radiation from vehicles are a significant concern.
• A study utilizing mice explored changes in body weight and blood immune cells due to electromagnetic radiation.
• Significant body weight impact was found particularly in female mice, raising concerns that radiation may influence appetite, endocrine systems, and overall growth.
• Results suggest a need for further research due to potential gender differences and varying exposure durations.

Conclusion

Extended electromagnetic exposure could potentially impact physiological functions, warranting further in-depth studies to confirm trends and underlying mechanisms. Differences in environmental conditions such as noise, temperature, and humidity were noted, which may affect the outcomes.

Further animal studies are planned to eliminate environmental interferences and conclusively determine the impact of vehicle radiation on immune function.
