A study has been conducted to evaluate previous research, identify gaps in knowledge, and recommend a research plan to study the effects of low-frequency and infrasonic noise on crew, commercial passengers, and residential communities. From an extensive literature survey, the research needs are ...
As LFN becomes more prominent, its effects on humans intensify [5]. Studies have demonstrated the negative effect of LFN on the circulatory, endocrine, and nervous systems of the human body as well as on learning and social behavior [6, 7]. The impact of LFN can often be masked by ...
Here, we report 83 height-associated coding variants with lower minor-allele frequencies (in the range of 0.1–4.8%) and effects of up to 2 centimetres per allele (such as those in IHH, STC2, AR and CRISPLD2), greater than ten times the average effect of common variants. In ...

The term “hearing range” refers to the range of frequencies that humans and animals can hear. It is usually measured in Hertz (Hz), which represents the number of sound waves that occur per second. To measure the human hearing range, a device called an audiometer is used. The audiometer...
While we speculate that cortical IF gradients exist in humans, we propose an additional mechanism that could affect the direction of traveling waves and is accessible through non-invasive tractography, namely structural connectivity (SC) instrength gradients — the sum of incoming connection strengths ...
2a). We start with deoxynivalenol (DON) molecules, a mycotoxin from Fusarium fungi found in cereals which poses health risks to humans and animals. The optical micrograph (Fig. 2b) illustrates the preparation of DON samples on a Si substrate (details in Methods). It should be noted that ...
lt;pgt;lt;stronggt;lt;emgt;Background and Objectives:lt;/emgt; lt;/stronggt;Some studies have investigated the effects of extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF-MFs) on brain signals, but only few of them have reported that humans exposed to magnetic fields exhibit changes in brain ...
This phenomenon has likely given rise to new concerns among the urban population about the effects of exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) on health. Associations have thus been created in France to gather population complaints and discuss this topic with relevant authorities. ...
Although mobile phone (MP) use has been steadily increasing in the last decades and similar positive trends are expected for the near future, systematic investigations on neurophysiological and cognitive effects caused by recently developed technological
