Unknown authors · 1984
This 1984 government review examined research on biological effects from 60 Hz power frequency fields and high-voltage direct current (HV DC) transmission systems. The Department of Energy, Electric Power Research Institute, and New York State collaborated to evaluate existing studies on how power line electromagnetic fields might affect human health and biological systems.
Robert T. Hill · 1980
This 1980 conference review examined advances in radar technology, focusing on small portable radar systems and new signal processing techniques. The paper highlighted developments presented at a radar technology conference, emphasizing the growing miniaturization and sophistication of radar equipment. While not a health study, it documents the rapid expansion of radar technology that would increase public EMF exposure.
В. М. Колдаев · 1972
This 1972 Soviet review examined how chemical substances interact with ultrahigh frequency electromagnetic radiation exposure. The study explored the combined effects of microwave radiation and various chemical preparations, representing early research into how EMF exposure might interact with pharmaceuticals and other chemical compounds in biological systems.
Hardy, J. D. · 1972
This 1972 Navy research studied how microwave radiation (3 cm and 10 cm wavelengths) heats human skin compared to infrared radiation. The study developed thermal measurement techniques to understand pain thresholds and thermal regulation. This foundational research was conducted to assess radiation safety for Navy personnel operating radar equipment.
Unknown authors · 1971
This 1971 technical report examined the biological effectiveness of magnetic fields, exploring how magnetic field exposures affect living systems and establishing early exposure limits measured in Tesla units. The research contributed to foundational understanding of static magnetic field interactions with biological processes during the early development of EMF health science.
Christopher H. Dodge · 1969
This 1969 review by Christopher Dodge examined hundreds of Soviet and Eastern European studies on microwave radiation effects in humans, focusing on clinical studies and workplace exposure surveys. The review highlighted significant findings from communist bloc research that was largely unknown in the West. This work revealed decades of human research showing biological effects from radiofrequency radiation exposure.
Zorach R. Glaser, Christopher H. Dodge · 1969
This 1969 review compared Soviet and Western research on radio frequency and microwave radiation effects. Soviet scientists consistently reported nervous system changes and behavioral effects, while Western researchers had largely failed to replicate these findings until the late 1960s. The authors noted growing Western evidence supporting some Soviet findings.
MILTON L. BERLINER, M.D. · 1950
This 1950 medical review examined the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the cornea and sclera, the eye's outer protective layers. The study covered these tissues' development, structure, and response to various treatments including surgical procedures like corneal transplants. While predating EMF research, this foundational work on eye anatomy remains relevant for understanding how electromagnetic fields might affect vision.
Arthur C. Giese · 1947
This 1947 review examined how radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum affects cell division, covering both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation sources. The research analyzed biological effects of electromagnetic radiation on cellular reproduction processes. This early work helped establish foundational understanding of how electromagnetic fields interact with living cells during critical division phases.
