Abstract

Overview

Electromagnetic signals from everyday wireless technologies are identified as persistent environmental stressors impacting biological systems. This comprehensive review highlights the significant implications for health professionals and policy makers, emphasizing the urgent need for awareness and action.

Findings

• Analysis of data from the ORSAA database (ODEB) focused on both experimental investigations and epidemiological studies related to real-world device emissions and proximity to mobile phone base stations.
• Statistically, two-thirds of considered studies demonstrate significant biological effects, with outcomes like protein damage, biochemical alterations, and oxidative stress being prevalent.
• The article underscores crucial biological effect categories and mechanisms of action, proposing updates in medical protocols and training reflective of these findings.
• Best practice guidelines are introduced for treating patients affected by EMF exposures and for safe technological use in healthcare environments.

Conclusion

The existing substantial evidence base confirms the severe stress imposed on human biological systems by everyday wireless communication devices and infrastructure. This stress has documented adverse effects warranting immediate revision in medical education and practice to minimize potential health risks.
