 Dimitris J. Panagopoulos, Alfonso Balmori,On the biophysical mechanism of sensing atmospheric discharges by living organisms,Science of The Total Environment, Volumes 599–600, 2017, Pages 2026-2034, ISSN 0048-9697,https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.05.089.(https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969717311890) Abstract Atmospheric electrical discharges during thunderstorms, and the related electromagnetic fields (EMFs)/waves called sferics, can be sensed by humans at long distances through a variety of symptoms, mainly headache, fatigue, etc. Up...Read More

Scientists suspect that Pediatric Multi-System Inflammatory Syndrome (PMIS) may be related to COVID-19,which appears to be a delayed inflammatory reaction that occurs several weeks after a COVID-19 infection. The illness mirrors many of the symptoms of toxic shock syndrome or Kawasaki disease, including severe inflammation affecting the coronary arteries. The symptoms in younger children include...Read More

Biomol Ther (Seoul). 2019 May; 27(3): 265–275.Published online 2018 Nov 27. doi: 10.4062/biomolther.2018.152 PMCID: PMC6513191PMID: 30481957 Abstract Technological advances of mankind, through the development of electrical and communication technologies, have resulted in the exposure to artificial electromagnetic fields (EMF). Technological growth is expected to continue; as such, the amount of EMF exposure will continue to increase steadily. In particular,...Read More

Kljajic, D., Djuric, N. Comparative analysis of EMF monitoring campaigns in the campus area of the University of Novi Sad. Environ Sci Pollut Res (2020). https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-020-08008-8 Abstract Following an increasing number of artificial electromagnetic field (EMF) sources in human surrounding, a number of research studies have been devoted to the issue of environmental EMF pollution. A particular...Read More

Abstract Since 2009, we built up a database which presently includes more than 2000 electrohypersensitivity (EHS) and/or multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) self-reported cases. This database shows that EHS is associated in 30% of the cases with MCS, and that MCS precedes the occurrence of EHS in 37% of these EHS/MCS-associated cases. EHS and MCS can...Read More
