Assessment of occupational exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields

Effect of occupational exposure to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields on level of thyroid hormones effective on fatigue

Background: The aim of this study was to assess exposure to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) and its effects on secretion of thyroid hormones associated with symptoms of fatigue on electric arc welding workers. Methods: This study was carried out on two groups including 35 welders (as exposed) and 35 non-welders (as control). Extremely low frequency electromagnetic fie...

psychological effects of occupational exposure to electromagnetic fields

background: in psychological studies, exposure to electromagnetic field is one of the hazardous factors, which has adverse effects on mental health. exposure to electromagnetic field due to daily use of electricity makes this study so important. the goal of this study was to determine the relationship between psychological symptoms and occupational exposure to electromagnetic field among worker...

Auditory perception of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields

Absorption of pulsed microwave nergy can produce an auditory sensation in human beings with normal hearing. The phenomenon manifests itself as a clicking, buzzing, or hissing sound depending on the modulatory characteristics of the microwaves. While the energy absorbed (--• 10/z J/g) and the resulting increment of temperature (--• 10 -6 øC) per pulse at the threshold of perception are small, mo...
